Sim Penguin, Tom, Agneza, fabulous stuff! Agneza you are such a creative person. REST, and get well.
Tom, I love those lake houses! You are such a master builder.
SimPenguin, what a great motel! I love it.
Ok, now time for me to share. You guys know I've been "fooling around", remodeling ALL the towns/worlds EA has built. Most of them don't have all the venues and most of them don't have enough land, let alone large enough lots, to put all the venues in. Check out the Swap Shop for some pics of what's happening in "Bridgetown", aka Bridgeport.
What I want to show you here is how things are going in Barnacle Bay. You guys have been so good at sharing and have so kindly allowed me to use your builds in my remodel so here's what some of it looks like. It is a work in progress so there isn't much to show and nothing really to download that you can't already get in the Swap Shop. The concept is to turn BB into a fantasy island with an element of piracy. The focus is no longer on the pirates though, but on the many mystical buildings popping up and the unusual folk who live in those buildings. It's a huge project and anyone who wants to offer help, (buildings and Sims!), I'd be glad to use what you offer if I can find a spot for it. (Don't forget, this isn't the ONLY world I'm working on!) I also need a name for Barnacle Bay. Something Havens? Ok, some pics.
First off, here's James Douglas courtesy of Schiperke, enjoy some time with the sprinkler in the garden of the Fisherman's Cottage Agneza built. He normally is just fishing but guess it was a really hot day. lol
Next are two of Neashaleigh's builds, Candy Bar and the Dryad's Cottage. My Sim, Ilya Mari, (pale green skin), lives in the cottage. Plumbob isn't landscaped yet but expect fantasy trees. The other building is a store gym that I love, unless someone comes up with a fantasy gym.
You can see the remake of Jolly Boat Plaza here but the main focus is on all those fantasy buildings backed up by the beach! Hmmm, wonder who made those? Agneza of course! The consignment store, dance club, theater, salon and more!
View from the beach. To the left background you see a bit of Ausette's Tiki Beach, the white building to the right is the bistro from Lucky Palms and is wip, the school has a secret under it and desperately needs landscaping! Park isn't done either but I think you're getting the idea of what I'm after.
What's under the school? All the municipal rabbit hole buldings! They all work too. Now I just need to pretty it up some. As you can see the townies are fascinated with this and are in and out all day.
It's hard to make a modern building fit in, but I THINK this works. It will be a venue but not sure which one yet.
That's all for now. Couldn't be doing this without all you creative people! Thank you for saying yes.
