BaCC Week 3: The Fenwick Family

[nepheris]

Work on naming the BaCC continues, and I've narrowed it down to *Something* Hollow. Any suggestions?

Autumn has arrived for the little settlement, and preparations for winter are in full swing. There's foodstores to be stocked, walls and roofs to be insulated, and work has started on protecting the new generator and water purifyer from the frosts.

GO FELIX! :D
I never comment, but I really like the way you are playing this neighborhood. You make it look realistic, somehow - even though it's Maxis Match, which I love. As for the baby bottle replacement, loverat @MTS has made one. :)
Also, I'm stunned by the hood picture. THAT SKY. WHAT IS IT. :D

[nepheris]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it enough to come out and comment then, I really appreciate it :) I guess I go by the old cartoon adago: it doesn't have to be realistic, but it has to be plausible ^^

The sky is one of the neighbourhoodobjectq that I'm currently testing for nimi4. It's absolutely gorgeous, I hope she releases it soon :)

[alexxschmidt]

Ah yes, now I remember she was working on them. Oh boy, I hope that too, they're so gorgeous.
Looking forward to the next update. :)

I kinda really want it to be Sleepy Hollow but I'm not sure that is applicable for somewhere that will soon be a bustling metropolis, so then my mind turns to Stars or Godric (yep, too much pop culture). Then I thought of Wolf or Wolves, or maybe Moon Hollow in a nod towards the founder?

Really loving reading about your BaCC, and I've had a look at your rules and am thinking of giving it a go myself. I was wondering if I could ask a wcif though? What skin defaults are you using as the skin is lovely and smooth looking, yet also beautifully EAxis-y. Thanks :)

[nepheris]

I know, my brain keeps reverting to Sleepy Hollow as well ^^
I'm really enjoying the BaCC with my rules, but then again, they're mine, so maybe that's not much of a reference :)

The skins I use are by Leh, you can find them here: http://lehsims.livejournal.com/ Really rare as they're a complete set!

[greygoldgriffin]

Thanks for the link, leh skins are lovely!

Flora is adorable, but looking at her genetics that isn't too much of a surprise :D

A coup would be good entertainment, I was expecting that there would be one in my BaCC with all those Pleasure and Romance Sims against a Knowledge founder!

Anna and the mini robots are just too cute for words! And the dialogues you wrote for them and for Rose and Cordelia are amazing, I am still laughing.

And Flora is adorable, I think she looks a lot like Lily, but she also got something that reminds me of Felix. The nose maybe?

That sky on the neighbourhood view is amazing! I can't wait to snag it from Nimi! :D

[goatcharmer]

Ooh, things are really getting interesting now. Though I sort of hope Davin doesn't get kicked out of town, for Myra and the kids' sakes. Still, I prefer Felix over him any day... I'm just hoping somebody can talk some sense into him!

[goatcharmer]

Oh, I also meant to ask: are you planning on doing an updated cast page? I'm starting to have trouble remembering all the kids!

[nepheris]

Hmm, that's not a bad idea actually. Of course *I* know who everyone is, cause it's my hood, but other people might get confused...
I'm a bit ahead of the posting schedule while playing though, I'll take pics ingame and post a castlist when the updates reach the same timeframe.

*Bites tongue* I'm not gonna give anything away yet! :)
