A little freebie surprise...hehehe!

I know, I know...I didn't announce a schedule or anything this month for freebies, but that is just because I am a lazy git, and had just finished setting 4 other lots free permanently. :P So, after the long "dry spell", here is my gift for you patient types:

Free for one week (Fri, March 20 - Fri, March 27)

Deveroux Duplex - EPS: UNI/NL/OFB/SEAS/BV/AL

I do hope the wait was worth it, and that you have fun playing this new lot! Thank you for your kind support, and for liking my homes enough to actually WANT them in your games. :D TSR really does have the best people!

Love and hugs -

Back up and running

My computer is back thank goodnesss. I have just finished re-installing everything and have begun an apartment lot. I just finished decorating it and tomorrow I will be packaging and lot testing it. Then after a clean install I will be submitting it here. I may do a beta run with it on Wella Creations first just to see how it goes. I am so glad my computer is up and running again. i missed my game so much.

Kitchen and Bath Recolors

The first in a set of recolors of the Kitchen and Bath appliances will be out tomorrow. I hope you enjoy them. I've added Pink to the usual set of 21 colors so I wouldn't end up making a separate Pink set afterwards.

The Floppy Cushion Living Rooms will still continue and I've started work on another bedroom recolor that you might find interesting.

I have some other ideas that I'm wanting to try, but it'll depend on the time available. As usual if you have an idea, let me know. Can't guarantee I'll do it (or be able to), but I'll at least consider it.

Thinking about trying some more clothing and other things too.

Enjoy having fun with your game! :D :D

Creating a story

I started to create a story. This will be my first. This will be connected to one of the TSR challenges I am currently playing. I introduced a character - a young man - whose looks and partial behaviour was inspired by my ex-boyfriends (well, from long ago in my teenagehood), so it's personally funny. I still have a problem finding good male hairs for my sim boys, though.

Work that body!

Recently, I was asked to make some eighties-style aerobics outfits. I've come up with four variations with a definite eighties vibe.



All the oufits comprise a leotard worn over leggings. Three outfits have an additional top worn over the leotard and two outfits have the classic eighties legwarmers.

All outfits are available for adults and young adults, use a standard Maxis mesh and are base game compatible.

Breezeway Curtains

Once I decided on a pattern for the fabric, these have come along quite quickly. The set includes single, full width, open, corner and diagonal pieces that hang from a track in the ceiling.

I also have the captures done for the Middle/Bottom Rows set of Panorama windows. So I just have to make them into previews and those will be ready to upload.

NOTE: The rug, easy chair and clutter objects in this preview are all from Lirunchik's Invitation set, which I am totally loving right now!

New lots

Heey, In my lost post I told you about my limitless inspiration. Well it resulted in two houses. I submitted them the 18th, but they are still pending. My first lot will be published march 20th so check it out. My inspiration has not dried up jet so you can expect those this month. I also have some nice ideas about some wallpaper, but first I need to find out how to make those. I'll let you know when I submitted them. The rest of my day I will be studying, working in the hospital and relaxing. I hope I have some spare time left his evening so I can play for master architect(lol). Renske

All over the place!

Yes, literally!

Hello everyone! It`s been a while since I`ve uploaded some new stuff, and that`s for 2 reasons -

1. My Milkshape decided to refuse any further cooperation with me - when ever I try to make a hair/body mesh, it crashes! I`ve done everything I could (the problem is with Unimesh plugin and the "bone weight" tool), and for the time being I`m stuck with making textures. NOT that I`m regreting it ;)

2. As of last week, I too am a proud Deviant! I decided to publish my sketches to get some feedback from the people who know a bit more about the whole CG and Photoshop world, and I`ve been keeping myself busy with reading tutorials, books and such...I still have a long way to go, but if you got some free time, check out http://markothesketchguy.deviantart.com/ and comment either here or there...as you like ;)

New formals set on the way. I promise! As for new hair meshes...not so soon, I`m afraid. Win some, loose some, I guess.

Stay tuned!

Finally

Computer is up and running so by the end of the week me and my shiny new 500gb hard drive will be working on some lots again

Whats on the drawing board

I've been busy working on some great designs lately...Here is a sneek peek at whats coming up. Some are just at the finishing touches stage. They should all be out within the next few weeks. I hope you will enjoy them.
