[Prisonic] Mauretania door/arch retextures

Another little something from the old bargain bin: Some semi-grungy retextures of the 'Chiclettina ‘Mauretania’ Beveled Glass door' (and its matching arch) that came with the base game. Nothing ornate, not even anything that is overly kaput, just some doors that were probably never much to look at to begin with.

Ai mia mia.

Well, let me just take a feather duster and wipe the mould off this place. I've been a bit AWOL - my monitor broke, then I broke some fingers at work, more issues reared their ugly heads and then I kind of lost interest in everything with keyboards. Tough life.

Anyway, I got crafty with the monitor so it sort of works for now. I decided to clean out my hell-basket of a HD and found this thing, and thought maybe someone would have use for it. It is basically the open robe from Kitchen and Bath stuff on a nude mesh, so you can slap any underwear on it. The briefs I used are by aikea-guinea.

[Clothing] Fortune's Fool - Vest and loafers for AM

Well, slap me silly if it isn't an upload! I've been cleaning out my game lately, so of course I had to clutter it up by making new stuff immediately. I basically took aikea-guinea's edit of a Store outfit and had my way with it, swapping shoes, reshaping the trousers and then retexturing the thing.
I included two meshes, differing only in the hands - one for Tenshii's smooth hands, one for the Maxis hands. Delete the one you don't want or your game will just pick whichever version it fancies.

ETA
For the Magic and Fantasy theme over at GoS: I don't usually make genetics or make-up and the like, but I really wanted the eyes from Dragon Age's Lady of the Forest and the Desire Demon in my game. So I unceremoniously ripped their textures from the Dragon Age game, edited them to be usable with TS2 and ended up liking them enough to make a complete set.

[Hair conversion + retexture] XM072 F2M

Hello hello! Here is a hair that was part of a project with Trapping, Nabila and Maaron (that we never got around to actually posting, alas). I had made some more things for this, but because real life is rather busy and I want to concentrate on finishing the things I started, I'll post them bit by bit. You can find Trapping's goodies here!

Anyway, this is a retexture and female-to-male conversion of an old hair by Flora of XMSims, using my own textures and colours. Polycount is 3280F 1291V.

[Object fix] GUID conflict - Eluvian/Wall plate

Hey guys,
Just a head-up for an object fix: Somehow the Eluvian mirror and my antique wall plate ended up with the same GUID, making only one or the other show up, and potentially crashing lots. I fixed the Eluvian and the recolours, so please redownload it if you have it:

ETA
Please also redownload the Spencer/Spender candles. I fixed another GUID conflict with wallsconce1, and both wall sconces should be properly recolourable, now.

[Clothing] Black Coffee - Blazer and dressy trousers + heels for AF

Hello there! First up, I'd like to mention that I made a masterlist thing-o for my stuff on Tumblr. No actual downloads there, just something that should make digging through my crap a little easier, even if you don't have an account there.

Second, here's an outfit I've had laying around for months: A simple blazer for your working ladies. Has both morphs, three recolours, and you can choose between Maxis hands and Tenshii's smooth hands, you know the drill. For the hands, I've included both meshes in the download this time: Delete the version you don't want or they will conflict!

[Object retexture + TBTO trade]

Here are some stuffs I've posted elsewhere. First, something I posted on Tumblr earlier this week - retextures of the Maxis base game painting called 'Olive Peynter's City Skyscape', with a default replacement mesh that removes the awkward shine. Uses awesome art by Haruyo Morita.

[Objects/etc] Devil May Cry wall sconce

Here's a rather motley bunch of stuff I managed to make the past week. First up is a wall sconce for the Aspirations theme over at GoS.

They say money can't buy taste, but what does that matter when you can afford the golden face of the Roman god of looove on your walls? Guaranteed to fit perfectly with your Aphrodite-shaped towelracks and lion-faced doorknobs!

Both the mesh and textures are from Devil May Cry 4, so all credits for that goes towards Capcom. Should be basegame compatible and can be found under 'wall lamps'.

[Clothing, object edits] TBTO stuff.

In a fit of insanity I decided to participate in TBTO over at Livejournal. I've only finished 2 out of my 6 trades, but I figured I'd post them here too before it becomes a huge pile. Click the pictures to go to the trade posts (and also check out the pretty stuff I've received!).

[Objects] Spencer candles + Eluvian mirror + Evori mirror retexture

Hello hello! Today I come bringing some fineries for your more pretentious sims: Candelabras, wall sconces and a two-story chandelier converted from Resident Evil, straight from the mansion of Oswell Spencer.

One caveat: I cloned the candelabras from University objects, and the chandelier from a M&G object. I've looked at a tutorial on making things basegame compatible, but was not successful - from what I've read it's more than just a little number change for lamps.

As for what is included, here are some previews:

Two wall sconces


Expand for the rest. )

Remember, you will need University for the candelabra and Mansion & Garden stuff for the chandelier.

Second, here are some items I added to the Galeria Occitana mirrors yesterday. First up is Merril's notorious Eluvian mirror from Dragon Age II. Could also pass for art nouveau, with a little imagination.

And lastly, a little bonus: Two more retextures of that little Mango-Sims mirror.

[Event: GoS CiJ 2012]

It's that time of the year again! I participated in the Christmas in July event over at GoS, and my generous Santa was NathanialRoyale, who made me some gorgeous Asian paintings and scrolls, and lovely walls and floors from Fallout: New Vegas! You can check them out here.

My Santee was the lovely [livejournal.com profile] lilith_sims, who I made these thingies for:














She generously decided to share her gift, so you can find these in her post in the CiJ thread over at GoS! As always, be sure to check the entire thread for more goodies.

The second thing I wanted to mention was a download I posted on my Tumblr earlier (moving it here now). Not much to say about that one - it is a sofa ripped from Tomb Raider: Anniversary. The original textures are kind of small, so I might make better retextures of it at some point.

[Build items] Devil May Cry textures as floors/walls/terrain paint.

Just a quickie before I dash off again: Some textures extracted from the beautiful Devil May Cry series for use in TS2. All credits go to Capcom, I just edited things here and there to be seamless. It also includes a collection file. There are some ~ornate~ kind of things, some clean tiles, some mossy stone, some masonry - a rather motley collection, in short.

.

Not all textures are pictured. There are also 3 terrain paints I didn't make previews of, but they're three variations of forest foliage.

[Object retextures, notes] The Big Trade-Off gifts

I've not been here for a while, but I'm still alive. I still have a few messages and comments to reply to as well, so don't worry - I have not forgotten!

First of all: The reason I take down my sims after a while is not because I'm trying to be annoying or anything like that, but I because like to keep them ~fresh and unique~. I intend to put some new faces up for download to compensate for the vacuum, so if there are any faces from my Tumblr that you'd like to have (except Neyri/Xi Hao/Anahon), feel free to comment here. I intend to pick four and maybe make a new one, if time allows it.

With that out of the way, I wanted to mention that I've been participating in [livejournal.com profile] thebigtradeoff and made some stuff!

First, for the ever-awesome Nabila:



And second, for the lovely Maron:







That'll be all from me for a while.

[Object + object edit] Tumblr gifts.

Here's some stuff I posted on my Tumblr earlier - figured I'd post them here too for the sake of organisation, especially since my Tumblr layout is a bit of a pain to navigate if you're looking for something in particular.




Four retextures/edits of a clutter object by Rosesims. You can find it in Deco>Misc for $150. Credits to Rose for the mesh, of course.


< Dropbox or Box.net >


Second were some more wall plates. I personally find them useful when doing some ~quick and dirty~ decorating for backdrops and such.
Mesh is my own (310F173V), it uses two tiles and it’s $500. TS2 only, but feel free to convert or whatever. The texture in the mesh file is indeed Medusa by Carvaggio. There are two bronze plates depicting St. George and the Dragon and two French or Flemish (I don't remember which) portraits. The dragon is a medallion from the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644 - the real thing is actually a tapestry). The pewter plate depicting a profile of a lady was apparently from the 1880s.
