STUD CRAZY!!!!!
OK. I admit it. I've gone absolutely crazy with these objects! I can't seem to stop recoloring them! I have about 10 sets ready to go. Only the red and purple ones in the picture from the previously blog entry are pure colors. After that, I got into textures. Here is a little preview. There are maybe 30 sets to come in all - provided that you enjoy downloading them as much as I like creating them, of course! If no one likes these, tell me now so I can stop and catch my breath!
Bauhaus inspiration
I have recently been introduced to the Bauhaus style of building.In a time of political turmoil in Europe, the Bauhaus school was created as a place for craftsman and artist to work together without class distinctions or discrimination.
The Bauhaus school was started in Germany in 1919 but only started offering classes in architecture in 1927.
Radically breaking with the past, the Bauhaus Masters and their students ushered in a modern era and a new way of thinking about architecture.
"The approach of the Modernist architects was to reduce buildings to pure forms, removing historical references and ornament in favor of functionalist details." (Wikipedia)
Bauhause style is also refered to as International style.
Although my two Bauhaus inspired houses (1 & 2 Berlin Street) are not replicas of any existing buildings I hope you will enjoy them and that they might inspire you to find out some more about this facinating style of architecture.
oh my im HYPEEEEERRRRRRRR!!!!
Wow.. I mean I really am! after discovering that the pharmacy was potentially trying to kill me off altogether by prescribing me 3 TIMES the correct dosage of my new "Pain Killers" which happen to be Tablets that Epilepsy sufferers use to prevent the fitting... I was confused at this too, but apparently they have been used duccessfully for people with Diabetic Neuralgia too so my doc thought I should give them a whirl... and guess what? They WORK! a lot of the general pain has gone, im a bit stiff, but other than that ive only had to take 2 ot my normal painkillers in 5 days so far - thats down from say, 30 Co-Codamol's to 2! How good is that?!However - the side effect is that im so unbelievable hyper, it like im one of theose Pregnant women doing that barmy nesting thing before they give birth, Ive rushing around everywhere soing so much stuff, my head is racing all the time - I just can stop - heck im even typing this with so much speed i have to keep stopping to check im not just mashing the keyboard and at least some of this is actually readble!!! Dave is just looking real confused as Im flying around the house cleaning, washing and doing all manmner of niggly jobs ive ben putting off for god know how long!
In a way I hope the hyperness stays cos i feel really good and awake and able to do things instead of that "Crack, Crunch, groan" each time i get up.. Hail Gabapentin!!!
Garden Butterflies
I made the butterflie flowers as garden flowers also. They still don�t raise the room score much but they looks nice, and adds a little fun!
The Bees Knees!!
Hey everyone! Been a while, so I figured I would update you all on whats going on in my creative world these days. As of this posting, "Borderline" should be just about released, which I am very fond of. Its a bit of a tribute to 80's era Madonna, and my own (top only) take on that popular Tata Young Sim that's going around. I love the idea of a peek-a-boo bra strap, and tons of chains with charms. I think it will be just what some you are looking for, and the rest of you will probably scrunch up your nose, which is perfectly understandable! (its a take it or leave it kind of look, after all)On the flip side of that sort of idea, I have created the first outfit for my Fifties collection, and I call it Que Sera. (get the reference?) I called it that because, quite simply, it reminds me of the spunky gal who sings that song. The cardigan is actually modeled after a modern sweater, which has been one of my favorites. It has an obvious 50's flavor, and I thought it would look adorable with a tweed-type skirt, and cute little heels. I had a real problem finding the right kind of mesh to use, and I settled on one of Chriko's gorgeous meshes. I say "settled" because, the shoes are not quite perfect on this particular mesh. The shoe is meant to be a kind of flip-flop style, so even though these are full shoes, they separate from the sole during certain parts of the walking animation. I dont think its too noticeable unless you are really looking, so hopefully you gracious folks will overlook it. That's a tough kind of decision for me to make, because I am a real stickler for the details, but there was simply no other mesh that would do, and the adjustments to the design would have had to be extreme in order to make it okay, and by then it would lose its authenticity. Below is a picture of one of the full outfits, and below that is a demonstration of the shoe glitch. (That is an extreme example, just to give you an idea of how it looks at its worst. For the most part, that never happens.)
Oh, and by the way - check out my forum thread for a picture of another sweater update coming soon, this one being quite a bit more modern than these two pieces I have just been talking about.
May 13th, Victorian Nursery Extras
A few extras for the Victorian Inspired Nursery Collections. The set includes recolors of the rocking chair, toy chest, and table lamp. I finally cleaned out my Victorian attic, LOL! Happy Simming!
thanks for joymie to let me use his model for my uploaded clothes named jowin.
Harrow Cottage
The first cottage in the Bannoch Village series! It always seems I start with smaller lots first ... just easier to manage I think ... but the lots will get bigger (family-sized) as this community evolves. Please note that it is my belief that 'wizarding' folk do not have much decorating sense (Have you seen the Weasley family's house in the HP movie (?), oh lord, nothing matches, but I found it most comfortable-looking), so you may find odd colored walls and furniture. That's wizarding-folk for you!!! Here are 2 pix for a peek at Harrow Cottage ... must go now and test out the next house ... Lockett Cottage ... and trust me Balthazar Lockett may be a fantastic wizard ... but his decorating skills are way off, lol!
Bannoch Village Project
Well I'll be starting a rather large project this week. Bannoch Village will not be your ordinary village ... but an entirely 'wizarding' village. Loosely based on Hogsmeade, (that 'all' wizarding village in the Harry Potter series). Hogsmeade has already been done ... so I thought I would do my own version of a magical community. Hopefully, there will be many houses to fill an entire neighborhood ... that is my goal. The houses will be half timbered dwellings, with their own unique design, but sharing similar exterior walls. I have already created the exterior and some interior wallcoverings ... just a few bugs to work out on landscaping and fireplaces (yes, fireplaces). Some of the cottages will be nice ... and some rather shabby (you know how I love that) ... so in a week or so ... you might see those cottages start rolling in here at TSR! Wish me luck and hope the creative flow, flows!!!
