HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I will try and have one, as I have been deathly ill with the flu all Christmas week! Could not even eat Christmas dinner!! WAH!

AS for my resolution? it is boring and standard, to lose weight. I have started already before Xmas, I only mention it here to remind myself to stick with it. It is only the last few years I have been gaining weight, and it has to stop.

As for VAN HELSING Because I have been sick I am behind, will try and finish it up after the New Year, and post the conclusion ASAP. I am toying around with a western, (as you can tell from my latest screenshots) whether I will post it, who knows?

I am also behind in reading my buddies blogs...same reason posted above, it is on my list!

Got Celebrations stuff pack for Xmas, my family asked if I wanted any EP's I said no!? Shocking isn't it? So far I have only 2 EP's, and I think that is all I will stick with. If it wasn't for creating objects and stories, I wouldn't be playing. I cannot remember the last time I just 'played the game'.

That's it for this week...Happy New Year...Cheers!

SimCity Societies... and a new BLOCK series!

I have some stuff upcoming for your sims this new year! (not really the New Year, but this coming year.)

Before I reveal some of my PLANNED projects, forst of all, I would like to extend my biggest congratulations to our friends over at EA for creating such a wonderful game, SimCity Societies! If you haven't tried it out yet, I BEG you, buy and try it! It is definitely worth your money!

Anyway... you can expect these lots after I get over my SimCity Societies madness...

My new BLOCK series, which will be called: BLOCK HILLS (I cant really find the guts to get rid of the BLOCK word... LOL)

A continuation of my EXTRAVAGANCE SET (maybe 2-4 lots)

A new SERIES (I mean it, COMPLETELY NEW!) that will be called (working title..)... I won't reveal the title yet, on second thought! Have fun speculating what that will be!

Anyway, that's all for now in the world of Alyosha.

Happy Simming and a WONDERFUL AND BLESSED NEW YEAR 2008!

Alyosha. :)

Happy New Year

I just want to wish all of my loyal downloaders and fellow simmers a Happy New Year! There will be lots of new stuff coming in 2008 and I look forward to hearing from all of you. Have a great time at your new years celebrations whatever they may be!

Back !

After almost two years away from Sims2 clothing creations, I'm back and hopefully still able to make something out of my two hands ;-)

I'm almost on pregancy leave, baby boy due in April, and enjoying the work on new creations for your Simmies !

So see you soon ! ^_^

Merry Christmas, a happy new Year and a big thank you^^

Thank you all^^
I got over 60 comments since i pubished my last set.
I'm so happy that you like my stuff, and i hope all of you will have a great 2008.
For me it'll be a year full of changes, i'll have my exams and maybe i'll start going to university.
I'm a bit scared, but i hope it'll be a good new year for me ;)

I'll still create clothes and with the help of some nice friends, i'm currently working on meshes.

Because of christmas, family, work and preperation for the new years eve, it was difficult to submit a new set, but be sure, it'll come soon :)

Happy new year, tschib

Seasons Match Items

Well, I have done MM (OFB Mission Match) items. I am now doing SM (Seasons Match) items. Started with appliances and branching out to most of the furniture etc that I did for MM. (rec items, pianos, clock, aquarium, etc.) I know, large project, so please be patient. As long as my health is good, I will recolor!

I will also be doing requests in between. Need to keep busy. LOL!!

Thanks for all the support and downloads. You are a fantastic group here at TSR!

World of Warcraft Pictures

Released today were 4 world of warcraft photos for your walls.

They are all recolors of Maxis items so nothing special is needed for them to work in the game, just download and enjoy!

I will probably update the screenshots of them because they appear dark for some reason.

The four are:

1. A blood elf portrait based on a wallpaper from the WoW trading card game.


2. One I title "Moonlight Sonata" and is a screenshot from the game of my blood elf standing in front of the moon with my best in-game friend.


3. Another is a panorama of Thunder Bluff and was taking from a wallpaper featuring the same picture.


4. Finally the last, is my character Cl�ver standing in the winter clothes in Orgrimmar

Secret Santa

Now that Christmas is over (almost), along goes Secret Santa with it!

I just wanna say thanks to R.Quest for her amazing present, two very different lots, very nicely done, I really love them :D

Here's the link to my post showing the presents off

Hope you all had a wonderful christmas :D

First thoughts on Free Time

I have to say, this is the first EP that adds something I have wanted� since the first day I bought The Sims 2 -- Sports and other stereotypically "guy" activities. I know ladies do these things too, but so much of the game is already so heavily gender-biased toward the ladies, as the recent poll on my member-page at TSR shows male-oriented content of every sort is a much needed addition. The poll clearly indicates the majority of players feel male-oriented content was/is seriously lacking from TS2.

The way I see it, only Nightlife� and Seasons� EPs are the must-haves� released to date. They are the only ones that add to the immersion and verisimilitude of the game, FreeTime EP looks to finally add something that is equally important for game immersion and verisimilitude: Real-life activities...

Sure, the other EPs add things, I even like some of them, but I don't consider them must-have.

Other than the bugs due to inadequate QA testing -- which we all know to expect at this point, the only thing I am hating about this new EP is the return of the dreaded, miserable Sad-Clown NPC... I have been finding creative ways to kill him since the original game.

I will be watching for the first mod to nix that hateful so-and-so... I hope it involves fire and explosives >_<

I'm sure it is just a matter of time before the annoying Mime and Saxaphone player make their return. We already have Mrs/Ms. Crumplebottom, and she has all the charm of a real-life Gladys Kravitz (USA TV-series "Bewitched" reference). I have a great affection for all the NPCs... an affection I might say is equal in every way to the affection I have for bathroom tile mildew.

Thank you Evi!

I hope you all had a magical Christmas and that 2008 will be full of excitement, love and peace for everyone! I was extremely spoiled by my very special Secret Santa, Evi, whom I have admired for ages for all her amazing kids creations! She created a set of special Christmas PJs for the sim version of my real kids :-) They are over the moon with 'their' PJs and I just love it! Thank you so much for this amazing gift I will always treasure it.
