Malibu Barbie skins and men to boy conversions

This week I am working on more Barbie-related skins. These outfits are swimwear based on Malibu set of dolls -- Barbie, Ken, PJ, Francie, and Skipper. I am also converting some of my previous adult male skins into child skins for boys. Time permitting, I may even get a chance to submit an Old Town community lot. 

Taking a Break

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I am taking a break from uploading for a couple of weeks. I will begin uploading again at the beginning of April. Have fun and have an AMAZING day!

Renovation Houses

I must admit I love nothing better than creating a totally trashed house for my sims to clean up. So far there are 4 houses:

March 22nd, Little Princess Bedroom

The Little Princess Bedroom - Part I, is scheduled for publication on March 22, 2009. The little girl's bedroom set features a delightful mixture of yellow and lime green, with a touch of lilac. This is the mesh set, future recolors included a mixture of pink and lilac and yellow and cream. The set's dresser is the master file and is linked to the following slave files: nightstand, hutch, desk, desk chair, vanity table, vanity mirror, bench, ottoman, and display board.

The princess bed is not linked to Maxis bedding and has its own custom bedding. The bedding is also linked to the round end table and desk chair. The canopy curtain is linked to the hutch's curtain and the small doll is linked to the large doll and will use all of its recolors.

Little Princess Part II, will be coming soon! I hope you enjoy the collection, and Happily After Ever!

The Sims 3 - Hands on

I'm going to be attending a Sims 3 "hands on" preview event this Wednesday, so if you have any questions about the game this is the time to ask.

In particular, I will be focusing on the open neighbourhood feature of the game, so I will mostly be answering questions about that. If you have questions about other aspects of the game, feel free to ask me, but also ask them here because then the people attending the events who are focusing on other features will see them and try to answer those for you.

I'll try to respond to as many questions as I can, so please post them as comments to this blog, or in my guestbook, or PM me. And of course, when I get back on Wednesday evening I'll be making a full blog post with my first impressions of the game.

New Hood project

Astoundingly, I just now stumbled upon this blog feature. I always assumed you had to spend kudos to get it, but couldn't figure out why the blog feature wasn't in the kudo store!.

I know a handful of you have bookmarked me so I thought it would be in order to mention that I'm coming up for air with my castle & mansion series and exploring some variations on a Victorian / Mansard theme. The new building tools & objects in M & G lend to some really grat looking buildings!  I've called it Glen Eden, the namesake of which is taken from an actual estate that used to be owned by friends of my grandparents. It's located right next to an enchanting little clusted of cotteges called Glenora, situated on the west side of Seneca Lake of the Fingerlakes in Upstate New York. I'm not sure Glenore is even on the map but if you find Penn Yan, go south-east-east to the lake and there you have it.

The sim Glen Eden will have a number of residences, businesses, community, and institutuinal lots...I hope. That is if I can maintain interest in it, and if human existence doesn't bear down too heavily on me with the warmer weather coming. Two things I consistantly struggle with. I already have 7 houses and 1 community lot designed. I just have to do the interiors which comes harder for me than the exteriors.

And yes, I will return to the castles at some point, but they are so danged complicated I just need to do some lighter stuff. You other artist types will be able to relate.
