WARNING: THIS MAY BE THE LONGEST-ASS POST EVER. FILLED WITH PICTURES.
Anyway! So my latest (and last) series, Brownstone Terrace, required a lot of set work. Like, a monumental amount. But what I created turn out, in my opinion, really good. So here are all of the crucial sets that I used on a frequent basis (whether they only occurred in one volume, or all four).
Enjoy!
THE STOREFRONTS
From left to right, it goes: Lily's studio, Reese's practice, grunge bar, hair salon, empty place where I can create five-second scenes, book store, small restaurant.
Left to right: Jasmine's lingerie store, Bravo, the coffee shop, H&M, one very small park.
LILY'S STUDIO
Welcome to the studio; this is the foyer/entrance/consult area.
The actual studio.
Lily's "editing studio" - also known as her office. Note the photography - the accumulation of every photo she's ever taken since opening the studio (of course I had to steal from the Maxis gallery ;])
REESE'S PRACTICE
Welcome to the practice; this is the lobby/waiting area.
Note the little area for the kiddies to play.
"Office" part.
And the actual chiropractic table and room. Obviously there were no chiropractic tables in-game, so I had to make do with a massage table.
COFFEE SHOP
Pretty storefront :]
Cash area, complete with coffee, espresso, and hot chocolate machines.
Seating area.
JASMINE'S LINGERIE STORE (BRAVO)
Storefront, of course.
Welcome to the store; on your left you'll find the check-out and change rooms, on your right is the merchandise, and the back wall contains more outfits and other ~sexy accessories.
Cashier area / change rooms (the two doors in behind). Also, note the sensual goddess-y statue under the light :P
The "accessories" - it was an excuse to get a close up on my favourite CC item.
Just a more hidden part of the store, with other sexy accessories (well, the best I could do, with custom content of course). I thought the woman in the swimsuit was a nice touch.
Change rooms!
THE GIRLS' APARTMENTS
ADALYN'S APARTMENT
Bedroom; self-explanitory.
Kitchen/living room, and the door. Bathrooms are boring so I'm skipping over them.
LILY'S APARTMENT
Lil's bedroom. Top-down view 'cause I'm lazy.
Jaime's race-car themed bedroom (because he loves cars, specifically Hot Wheels).
Living room/kitchen. I love the piece above the television, as well as the fireplace. Lily's apartment was one of my favourites, for those two reasons.
GEMMA'S APARTMENT
I love Gemma's bedroom: I made it when I first learned how to rotate items, and I just about squealed with delight.
Living room/kitchen, modelled by Gem and Aidan!
JASMINE'S APARTMENT
Bedroom! (Obviously)
Living room/kitchen.
JASON'S APARTMENT
(Was used in Lily's volume only)
Living room/hall.
Kitchen!
Jaime's room, filled with sports and cars - of course ;]
Jason's room!
AIDAN'S APARTMENT
(Used in Gemma's volume only, which is a shame because it's my favourite)
Living room/study/hall.
Kitchen - rather boring.
Bedroom! I accidentally forgot that Aidan was a male when I was making this, and created it in more feminine colours. Whoops?
THE BEACH HOUSE
(Only used in Jasmine's volume, which is a shame since I spent 3 hours on it)
Here's the outside! I'm certainly not as talented a creator as Heather (
imxplosion ) but I make do ;].
Entry way, complete with the special walk-under (I get all squealy over it, so I had to show it off).
Walk-under. There's actually a floor on the second floor, but my game goes all weird when full-length windows are involved (and there are a lot in this house, because I have a window fetish).
Entry-way; I like clutter :D
Hall/sitting area.
Pool room: because the beach wasn't enough.
Living/games room. Features the television and seating area, pool, arcade games, and Don't Wake The Llama.
Dining room. Excuse the mass amount of photo spam, but the room had a lot of stuff I wanted to show.
Kitchen, with breakfast table.
Upstairs hallway. This last picture features the part of the house that's above the walk-over.
See? Just thought I'd illustrate with another picture (and because I love my walk-under, okay? I freaking adore it).
Bedroom #1: used by Jasmine and Reese.
Bedroom #2: used and modelled by Adalyn and Finn.
Bedroom #3: used and modelled by Gem and Aidan.
Bedroom #4: used and modelled by Lil and Jason. The first door on the left connects to the kids' bedroom, and the second door is their walk-in closet.
Bedroom #5 (kids'): used and modelled by Jaime and Mackenzie.
Here's the back view of the house (I told you I love windows ;]).
Squee! Walk-through!
And here's the final photo, of both front and back.
And that's all from me, for now!
