Lots and Lots of... Lots?

Well games crashing is such a downer.  I just tend to randomly place lots unless I actually try to think about it then it hurts my brain and I give up, lol.  #quitter

I mostly try to figure out what other lots and neighborhood deco will be in the background of the shots and hope they'll look kind of realistic. As far as the game allows, of course. In the beginning I didn't care that much cause I didn't expect to do it for very long.

I am not a good poser, picture taker, nor stager.  I have been working on it but it's still pretty primitive.  I am always in awe of great creators and try to copy them just a little bit.

I've gotten pretty rusty at it myself. Kind of worry how badly it'll go when I finally need to get my story pics. It wont be for quite a while though.

I really wish Sims2 had a pose player like Sims3 does. It would be so much easier than 45978643 boxes clogging up the catalog and trying to figure out what the hell box has what in it, especially when the options aren't at all descriptive.

ranabluu

That's so true.  I have a million and one pose boxes but I don't even know how to use them.  I think I might play ts2 tonight and take some crazy pictures lol.

yuichen

Good way to get used to using them! :P

ranabluu

I played ts4 lol.  I didn't want to load all of the stuff back into my game. #lazy

yuichen

Lol, can't blame you there.

ranabluu

I think I might play it tonight...I really want to start a story and make a store but I need to download more stuff to put in the store, lol.

yuichen

Lol, and the cycle continues! :P

Such lovely lots. Here are photos of my Alsatian farm house which I made last summer.

I made some object recolours as you can see. The Alsatian Bienvenue "statue", a medievalsmithy armoire, a SDA bed set, decals, a bedding, dining table and chair... It was a big Alsatian themed project I made for fun and to relax.

Oh wow, it's really beautiful :) Must've taken a while with all the more complicated roofing, and I really love that painted mural above the bed. The indoor garden is pretty cool too!

LizzyL

Yes for the roofing I had to count tiles because of the beamed walls I made for outside in pink and the windows...

Here is a short view of a makeover I made of a Helgasims house and I shrinked it on a smaller lot and improved, rearranged, keeping Helga's windows and balcony object. The interior design is rather very classy with furniture from the French site Simsantiquite, still up today.



And my two favourite pics of a beach cavehouse I made. I recoloured some marvine rocks and others from MTS to match for exterior wall murals I made. I wanted to sink the house lower but on a beach lot it's "risky" and I'm not a big expert for the constrainfloorelevation cheat. So I built big hills around covered with rocks, plants, trees also on the flat roof.




yuichen

Very creative! It's too bad there wasn't a way to keep the water out if you went lower. That's something that's always kind of annoyed me, but what can you do? Still came out really cool! :)

I'm not familiar with a lot of Helga stuff that wasn't hair so I won't know how much it's changed, but I'm sure it's an improvement all the same! :)

such beautiful homes I like a lot --thank you for sharing
