ok so i am crazy. i was so inspired by the uni world (like seriously it’s beautiful and my second fave now after bridgeport with moonlight falls) that i decided to RESTART Leaside as a large world. i must want death.

people say that islands are easier but to me the idea of having to perfectly sculpt every corner seems harder than slapping up a DT lol. yes it takes quite a bit of work fitting it together but i enjoy that for some reason. when it’s just blank square i’m like O___O even with my map i drew. seriously just like… O____O  too much empty space to try and fill. at least this way there’s some sort of boundary.

ok that’s the end of my essay. i still have all my lots so i’ll be plunking them down in here eventually if i don’t scrap and start again. CRAY CRAY.

Leaside - Bell Harbor

more lots. the ol’ fishin hole, and the beach dive bar. still need to properly decorate/paint stuff.

Leaside - Bell Harbor

beach lots. still a long way to go with these but i felt like terrain painting so i dropped the downtown square for now.

Leaside - Leaside Public Library

ok i’m done with this one for now. it’s just a shell for now no decor XD. i’m going to have to come back to it though i have too much of a mix of arches/windows. was trying to emulate the boston public library ‘cause i liked it during my inspiration search. oh well. #sims3buildlimitations

Leaside - Leaside Public Library 

soo slowly moving along with Leaside. It’s been weeks and all i have is a park, a city hall, and a library shell. none of which are done because i will never be satisfied.

so have a shitty CAW pic complete with yellow lines and bad camera angles. meh.

i’m about to go fully in game with my cc to finish this. my world will be FULL of cc because there’s nothing complete with the build/buy sets EA has provided. i can’t even show the front yet because it’s like so bad mix of styles right now. oh well i hadn’t planned on sharing it for this reason anyway.

Leaside - Priory Square Park

ok on to other lots XD

Leaside - Priory Square Park

bitchload of park pics comin…

<3tash

Leaside - City Hall

k no more city hall after this. i just have fun looking at stuff in different lighting. i think i’m using UL ini files but i’ll have to tweak them a bit o un-pinkify. what the obsession with blindingly pink/purple sunsets is is beyond me. there’s really a lot of empty space that i have no idea what to do with. meeeeeeeeeh. 

<3tash.

Leaside - City Hall

i wanted it to be grand and symmetrical. i kind of copied bridgeport obvs XD. i’m probably going to tweak this more later but it was such a boring and difficult lot that i moved on to the park. laterzzz.
