Working hard building a Japanese city!

I finally found a tutorial for adding .package files that gets results and with that I was able to dl tons of custom content I had been eyeing from Mod the Sims and from links on My Sims 3 Blog. I saw tons of really cool Japanese items an that inspired me to build a whole neighborhood from scratch!

Finding a blank world though with a Japanese city feel proved to be my toughest challenge yet, well maybe second to the time I dl'd CAW and tried to make a world (which I don't have the patience to develop the skill). I saw tons of already made Sim versions of Japanese cities but the thing with most Simmers is they buy all EP's and SP's when they come out so most of the worlds I coudn't download (I only have WA, LN, and HELS). I also don't plan on buying Generations, I love the items it comes with but I see no real need for what the game offers since I never play my families really in depth anyway.

I have posted on the forums a request (I should check that at least to bump it) and hopefully someone will take on the challenge. I willing to gift considerably but I didn't mention it in my forum post because I don't want (1) someone who's not skilled at world making doing it just for gifts and (2) someone skilled doing it just for gifts (I do peoples request because I simply love building, generosity people!) and (3) someone throwing up a world that doesn't meet requirements simply to get gifts.

I found a blank world called Unmei no Shima which is nice and what I'm using to build my lots on but I'm still loking for the world that's just right. I'll be posting pictures of the progress since I'm tackling alot of big building projects (I built my first apartment YAY!).

Here's the first set of pictures. It's of the downtown area with all the shops and bars and all those narrow alleys you find in Japan.  I'm alternating between the lots to keep from annoying my self working on the same lot for hours.

This is all located on one 50x40 (I think that's the lot size) lot. I split it in two and built a chain of shops on one half, a narrow alley way in between, and in the front (the last picture) there's two love hotels (google it, I also will not upload this to the exchange since kids are one the sims 3 site, even though design of my hotels are pretty innocent) and a clothing store.

You can't see it in the pics since I hadn't built it yet but I built more shops and clubs in the same manner next to this lot. I only have pictures of the club for that lot since that's all I've built.

Expect more update post for my currentl unamed world.

Cantina Bar & Grille- CC FREE version Download

This is a Mexican bar and grille I built about a week ago. I'm pretty happy with it. The pictures are of the CC version but the link is for the CC Free version. I haven't uploaded the CC version yet on the exchange but will update this post when I do.

The bars look the same minus the custom bar wall art. The day of the dead art is still present, I just used a CAStable piece of wall art I got from the Sims 3 store and made day of the dead patterns to CAS it with.

 The two shot below have the non CC version

 This is he CC day of the dead art.

Best experienced at 246 3rd Avenue, the Bridgeport Beauty has 3BR +  2BTH, a spectacular outdoor great room, private pool, and all the luxuries of a contemporary home. Bridgeport Beauty does sacrifice space for location but the homes narrow design is deliberate for two reason; (1) provide the best views possible and (2) challenge the builder (me) to use smart design to maximize space.

Bridgeport Beauty- Lotphoto+Floorplan Release

Okay I've been spending my free time today preparing my new lot upload, Bridgeport Beauty. Here is the new default lot photo and the floor plans for the lot. My next post will be the big shaboozie with download links, proper lot description, and a link to the photobucket folder with all pictures (there nearly 70 amazing shots). So here's more teasers:

Bridgeport Beauty- Sneak Peek

I am in love with Late Night bugs and all. I was really missing Night Life so when Late Night was announced I just had to have it (I spent my Sim point budget for two month's on it) and when I got it I knew Bridgeport was the world for me lol, I'm such a city girl. Anyway enough of me ranting. These are just some random pics I took of my newest lot while still in the building and decorating stages (this was the first time I would build and decorate room by room). I will say it's modern (I've been doing tradtional to contemporary family homes so it's nice to get back into complicated architecture and luxury glitzyness) and that it is about the views in Bridgeport. I will also admit that it is by far my favorite build and shows some serious growth for me as a builder and interior designer. Now pics:

P.S. I won't say what excatly these photos are of. Have to get some shut eye second time in a row going to bed at 6am TT.TT
