Sims 3 - The Official Building/Remodeling Showboat Thread

[Frey]

The idea of building the rabbit holes under the school -  genius!!!! Never thought about that!

It looks like a great and fun world to play in Joria! I don't usually download custom worlds but I think I would download this one if you share it  .

Joria, your town is beautiful! Makes me want to get Barnacle Bay, just for this! That venue, a hangout, maybe, or a LN bar of some kind.

[Audren]

A personal favourite Sim of mine recently passed away, and I wanted to make a little memorial for him. (Practice for my Dynasty, I suppose) I took a few screenshots of it.





This is my first real attempt at building anything with the intention of looking good, so I'd love to have feedback on this.

[Schipperke]

I think it's lovely, Audren!  Very atmospheric.

[Andy_555224]

It is! The fountains add that little bit extra of flare, but it's still concentrated on the memory of your Sim. R.I.P.

[Joria]

Sorry for the loss, Audren.  I know how traumatic it can be when a favorite Sim dies.  I was unable to play for days when some of mine passed.  The memorial you made is perfect and so beautiful.  Terrific job.

Here's the next finished piece in my BB remodel.  I really need a name for this place!
So far it's Enchanted Havens but I think something better is needed.

Front of school and yes, I used the school from Sunlit Tides.



Rear of school w touches of KP stuff:



Right side of school, see the little benches?



Left side of school, see the lollipop lights?



My kidlet is having a birthday party, (early, it's really in September), and it will be a luau.  Appropriate for me to be gifted with Sunlit Tides, eh?  Aloha everyone!

[Andy_555224]

;s. How dare you rub your Sunlit Tides in our faces. Silently rages. lol. Not really , it's beautiful, like everything on this thread.

[Frey]

It looks grate Joria! And Audren, your memorial looks awsome too! It actually gave me an idea for my future 838373737th attempt at an Immortal Dynasty .

I have an unrelated question: where does one find those 2x2 water lily pond things with the stone border? I wants to know.

[Frey]

It's under decor stuff, in the sculptures section. Well, if I mean the same as you mean, LOL. But I think it came with an EP (World Adventures or Late Night, I don't know it anymore)

It's from World Adventures.

Thanks.

I can never remember the name of that particular "fountain" but it is so useful!  You can use it as is, or put something on top of it, add fountain spray things or whatever.
Put a statue in it, whatever your imagination comes up with.

Thanks for the kind words you guys.  Right now I'm working on filling in the area that used to hold City Hall.  I've put a spa building on top and the bistro, which will be Sunlit Tides buildings, and underground will be the science thing.  Since they are all "Visitors Allowed" it will work.  BB does not have robot fish in the science center so I'm not sure if I want an above ground pond with robot fish in it or put it underground with building.  What do you guys think?

[Andy_555224]

Ok, I thought I might upload some screenies here, .


The curb shot. Note the curtains and the §150 apiece fence in the background.


The living room. Sleek and refined, the tones of this room reflect the rest of the house.


The kitchen, shot taken from the living room.


The bathroom, with washing machine near the shower (unseeable from this angle)


The floorplan, with hot-tub, professional bar and clothesline in the backyard. View of the bedroom layout there aswell.

Lol, only noticed I had the grid on after the fourth screenie. Only §59,085!

Any comments people?

[Joria]

I like it.  Very minimalist and masculine.  Are you going to add a pool?  You have plenty of room for one although it will raise the price a lot.  Still it would be a nice addition.
