A thank you to TSR artists...

This might sound crazy to anyone else but fellow Simmers, but building, decorating and perfecting lots is in many ways my number one outlet for stress busting. Since I stopped smoking earlier this year, Simming and knocking back countless tea/coffee (really doesn't matter which) have done wonders to replace my former habit. 

But even more than creating lovely lots, looking for custom content destresses me too. There is something about seeing new or upcoming items that you just know are going to be PERFECT for that specific project/room/look you are doing. Then, it's on to look through older patterns, objects, build stuff to find just the right walls/floors/plants/kitchens/decor to complement the new items. 

In fact, for a shoppaholic like me, I can safely say that 'shopping' for Sims content is every bit as awesome as shopping for shoes. 

To get to the point, I wanted to say a big thank you to the very talented artists of TSR, who have the skills, creativity, imagination and style to be able to make all of these amazing things. You inspire me (and so many others too of course) to keep on building, and you make the game so much more than I ever imagined it could be. 

On that note, since I still have to get some more work done before I head off to 'Simland', time for a cup of coffee. :) 

Hugs to you all, 

Rox

 

 

 

 

From building to submitting

I've been wanting to submit a lot ever since joining TSR, but for various reasons (spoiler alert: perfectionism with a not-great attention span) I often find myself with almost-finished projects rather than anything I am willing to actually share. 

Simming for me is a way to de-stress after a busy day, a way to indulge my creative side, a channel for all the interior ideas I see during my (many) daydreaming decor website browsing sessions... even a comfort. Of course, I don't have to explain the feeling of making, building, buying, CAS-ing... you all know just what I mean. :D

Recently, I had a lightbulb moment. What if I focused my efforts on a partly furnished lot instead? A lot that had everything in place, but was ready to be customised by anyone who wanted to use it? 

And so, that is how it came to be that right this very moment, there is a lot uploading in my filestorage. I made it over the weekend, and I had to do 3 rounds of testing before I got just the right screenshots to use for images.

The first test Sim I used at random was an insane witch I made ages back, who went straight to the spa room and proceeded to have a mud bath... fully clothed. Needless to say, those screenshots didn't make the cut - aside from her dirty laundry all over the floor, the insane vibe was so not what I was going for. ;) 

The next test, I used a (possibly average) couple, and as the guy was flirty, they stayed in the foyer while he delivered cheesy lines all on his own. I messed up those images though, by only reading the screenshot requirements AFTER resizing. Oops! 

The third and final test however, was just right. I used the same couple, they stayed out of the way (you can just about see them over-sleeping one morning in the floor plan pics) and the result was just what I wanted. 

If all goes to plan, 56 Lookout Peak should be up soonish. Hopefully, at least someone will like it. ;)

P.S. I really also have to thank the artists here at TSR. You are all awesome, but wanted to give special thanks to SIMcredible, Pralinesims, Flovv, Jomsims, Shinokcr and Devirose for inspiring me with their beautiful things.
