Away for a month.
I am in the process of moving to a new area - selling my house and looking for a new one. Right now I am so busy with that, amongst other stuff...I just don't have the time to create for Sims. So I am taking a month off to deal with all this.I will check my comments and pop into the forums from time to time, and I should be fully back on track here by the end of July or first week in August.
Matt & Jenny
I finally got what I think is somewhat close to what Matt & Jenny looked like. I didn't get the house exactly.....but close. Jenny's hair is a bit different because I couldn't find the exact mesh again......and I'm leery of adding too many meshes. Aside from their clothes I think I got THEM pretty darn close if I do say so myself (took several attempts to get her face looking like "Jenny"). :D (knock on wood) The only computer problem I currently have is that I do NOT have a question mark key; so "(Q)" = "question mark".
Here are all 3.....Matt, Jenny, and Lumbar Matt's service dog.
Here is a close up of Matt & Jenny so everyone can see what their faces look like better.
I got the house kinda sorta close. There ARE......SOME differences.
I'd really like to know what everyone thinks. I don't know that I can get it any closer......but I'd still like to hear everyone's opinion.
Working!!!!
I have a lot of requests. I am just now starting on ones from early May. Sorry it is taking so long, but some of them are huge requests and I want to honor their request(s).If You feel I have missed your request, please feel free to PM me and I will add you to my list. I would not knowingly excluded you if I said I would do the request, but papers have been know to disappear from my cluttered desk in the night. LOL!!
Or if you have a request, Please PM me and I will let you know if I can do the request or not. Some things are beyond my capability.
You guys have been a great support system for me with all the comments, downloads, & thank-yous. I really appreciate them. They warm my heart, even some of the not-so-nice ones, Heh, Heh!!! God Bless You All.
Retro
Have you seen my new retro items. A playable mechanichal toy and a retro nurcery. Just the kind of bed I had myself when I was a kid
Chapter 2
All of the screenshots have been taken for chapter 2 of Behind Closed Doors! All that is left is to write the captions for them. This chapter will focus primarily on the Zolers and the Knights. And just for your enjoyment...a screenshot from Chapter 2!
Fairies & Unicorns!
Quick update! The set of 'Flower Fairy Paintings' I've been working on have been tested successfully in-game, and I think, have turned out really well (but maybe I'm just a little biased!). I will upload them later tonight, so hopefully they'll be published in a few days. I've also been working on the 'Unicorns/Pegasus' set, and this is the result:
Re-sizing issues make the previews look a bit blurry, but they're ok in-game.
Any thoughts or comments?
THE Mad Cow!!
Clowns are Creepy
Hubby and I took the kids to the circus this past weekend. I'd like to say that all the bright colors and fanciful atmosphere inspired new creations, but all I can really say is "$24 FOR COTTON CANDY!" That, and "clowns are creepy". I've never been a big fan of clowns. It may have something to do with watching Poltergeist at the drive-in at age 5, or maybe reading Stephen King's "It" while I was in elementary school, I dunno. Anyway, I'm now broken when it comes to clowns. I don't see them as happy, goofy, bringers of joy. I see them as creepy, evil-doers who must wear make-up because they're hiding something. The kids thought they were great, which I'm glad for, but one of the clowns touched me, and I thought I was gonna barf. That, or punch him. Yuck!The best part of the circus, according to the kids, was the elephants. Because they did such neat tricks? No. Beacuse while they did such neat tricks, they pooped all over each other. There's nothing like a little, ok, a lot, of dung to really get the crowd going. It's been 3 days and the kids still say stuff like, "Remember when the elephants were standing on their heads, and that one big one had diarrhea?" Ah, good times. I spent $100 to look at poop. :)
New Low Cost Living Room Set
Just finished a new living room set featuring my absolute favorite nasturtium flower and vine wallpaper. It's a big bold pattern, so it was a little tricky not letting the whole room get overwhelming. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out...especially the sofa that looks oh-so-comfy. The set comes with three carpets and four walls so you can mix and match to get the right balance of pattern and color for your Sims. Should be out in a few days.
Thanks to all who participated.
Hi, I would like to thank each and everyone of you who had participated in the poll that I had on my minisite. I appreciated it very much and also thank you for your time when participating during the poll. So, the results are very close to each other and the highest is : Lipgloss...So, probably I'll make more lip-glosses and lipsticks for sims and also, a little bit of others so as to be fair to all. Once again...thank you very much! :)
