Only Thing I could think of, when looking at your house Lynley is that you could have a bit more contrast with the exterior look, and flooring on the patio areas, like using a bit lighter color for the pathways

Thank you for the kind wishes!  I'm also grateful for any comments/advice anyone has.

@Lynley - Your build is exquisite (as always)!  I love the harmonious colors outside and the decor inside.  You were able to include so many beautiful little touches that make it feel like a home (the hand towel in the kitchen, the shoe rack in the bedroom, etc.).  I wouldn't change a thing.

@grimsoul - I love your townhouse, too!  What impressed me the most is how you really ran with the assignment and built a 2 family house.  The one thing I would suggest (and I ran into the same problem, too) is to put more furniture and decorative items in the house.  There feels like a lot of empty space.  I assume you ran into the budget cap - I know I did - I would have filled up some of the empty space in my house if I could have.

Congrats Katluvr! It was a great build!
@Vamp You had a very cute little house! The yard was a bit bare and needing flooring or terrain paint.
@imaGleek I liked your house. The only thing I don't like is the outdoor walls. The rocky wallpaper doesn't really work for that house. (It might just be me though)
@KJ I thought the house was great! The only thing the white flooring doesn't really work on the right half of the house.
@Lynley I thought your house was perfect! I even downloaded it!
@caliban I thought your build was unique! Unique in a good way. I really liked the colours you used.
If there is anyone I missed sorry.
P.S. Any feedback for me?

I had no clue what to do for the exterior, so I just slapped that siding on.

For your house, the lime green was just a little bit to vibrant for my taste.

Hey guys I'm taking an extended hiatus... again. I'm out of ideas to build houses and I don't have as much fun designing homes like I used to; it feels more like a chore. So that's where I'll be, I will probably be back sometime. :P

Your buildings are my muse. Your houses are gorgeous, there's not a thing in the world that you could possibly change. As soon as I saw your entry I told myself that if you didn't win, you'd be robbed.

And I downloaded your house, and that's a big complement coming from me because I never download anything.

yeah, I hit the budget cap before I was really done. After I hit the budget cap I started thinking, well if I get rid of this couch and put in this one that will give me a few hundred more to work with. Trade out this for that for some more money..
It was surprising how fast the money went. :) But I had a lot of fun with it.
