    Hello @ChaosSimmer86 :) I will look forward to seeing your greenhouse build!
  • ChaosSimmer86ChaosSimmer86 Posts: 65 Member
    Soooo... I pulled an all-nighter and my build is done! :) Should I post it now or wait until later in the challenge? And could I possibly post more pictures than five? Since there are so many aspects to this build (I mean, it's basically two builds :wink: ) I am having a really hard time picking five pictures that adequately represent it.
    Hope you are all having as much fun with the challenge as I did!
  • rosemowrosemow Posts: 163,519 Member
    Hello @ChaosSimmer86 :) It is great that you have finished your build! I will look forward to seeing your build! Perhaps you could post the 5 pictures here, then post a link to more of the photos on imgur. You can upload the pictures all together so that are in a group on the site,
  • ChaosSimmer86ChaosSimmer86 Posts: 65 Member
    Thanks as always for your quick answer @rosemow! It was really, really hard to limit myself to five picture but I managed :) Here we go:

    Would You Like Criticism: Absolutely!

    Additional Notes:

    I finished this challenge in two days because I just couldn't stop building. I had so much fun and I love my little tiny home :)
    I decided to keep some of the brick wall inside and match it with a laid-back country style. I put in lots of bookshelves, because Fraser has a lot of botany books that he loves to browse while sitting in front of his fireplace. He also has a computer for research, but no TV, because he would rather spend his time gardening.
    The kitchen is small but very functional, because Fraser likes to cook with fresh vegetables from his garden. His bedroom is tiny and cosy and also full of bookshelves. In the bathroom, I first wanted to put in a shower, but then I figured that Fraser might like a nice bubble bath after a whole day of digging in the dirt, so he got a full bath with a tub! The last little addition to the house is Fraser's little wall of fame: In the hallway leading to his greenhouse he put all the trophies and awards he won for all his perfect plants.
    Which takes us to the greenhouse. It is filled with perfect fruits, veggies, flowers and potted plants. The eyecatcher is a fountain in the center. Fraser has a nice lounge area, so he can spend time admiring his beloved plants, as well as a little work space. Outside, the garden continues with several fruit trees in the backyard. There is also a little shed to keep all of Fraser's tools and supplies, so nothing gets lost.
    He definitely loves his new home. Hope you do too!

    The layout and design of Tiny Home, Big Plan( t) s looks very nice! @ChaosSimmer86 :) Very nice outdoors areas! The home looks very homely! The texture of the exterior walls gives a very nice look to the home. The red flower box windows and flowers on the edges of the home look very pretty! The orchard fruit trees areas look great! Very nice glass tiling roof greenhouse! The flowers, plants, flower wheelcart, plants wall decor and water fountain look so very nice there! Very nice sofa and armchair sitting nook for sims to enjoy sitting chatting there enjoying the pretty and natural flowers and plants setting! The metal shelving looks great with the garden tools on them! Very nice fireplace sitting area in the home! Sims will enjoy relaxing there in front of the fire reading a book . The sunflowers are a sunny touch there, and the books look homely on the side table. Very nice corner study desk nook for sims to enjoy sitting there using the computer.
    I enjoyed looking at the other photos also.
    It is such a very nice home and greenhouse build ! :)

    Would You Like Criticism: yes
    Back Story:
    Fraser loves everything about gardening --- from seed to fruition. He loves flowers, trees and plants. You get the picture. He also holds fishing fun nights, and everyone chows down on a delicious garden-fresh meal after fishing, and Fraser uses the fish to fertilize his stellar greenhouse garden --- atop his tiny home.
    Additional Notes:
    1.There are some plants growing in pots that usually don't
    2. The two fishing ponds for fishing competitions --- so he can use fish fertilizer.
    3. My sim, Fraser, painted the paint by reference painting on the easel in the greenhouse.
    4. There are also two cameras in the greenhouse, so that he can take photos of his growing goodies to do gardening research.
    5. I made an adult swing in the yard --- "hanging" from the oak tree in the yard. The swing is not playable. It is a creative decoration.

    The layout and design of Tiny House -Big Garden looks very nice! @coolsim9999999 :) The two ponds for fishing look great! It looks very nice how you have used the floral grassy terrain paint! The lamp lights look very nice on the edges of the front footpath. Very nice corner outdoors dining nook! Sims will enjoy cooking the fish meals on the bbq there and eating the food at the umbrella covered table in the outdoors air. The swing from the oak tree looks great! The hanging basket street lamps look nice in the build. It is great that the greenhouse is on top of the home! The trellis roofing, and the greenery on the side walls of the home looks very nice. The plants look nice how they are placed on the edges in the greenhouse, and the water fountain feature , floral lattices and arch are nice touches, Nice sitting and resting area there. The candles are calming on the table for Fraser to see when sitting there after gardening, Very nice layout of the interior of the home! The yellow colour of the walls and furnishings looks very sunny and nice! It is nice that he is enjoying painting on the easel, in a very nice natural setting. The stone flooring looks great!
    It is a very nice home! :)

    Thank you very much @rosemow for your awesome and very detailed review of my tiny house with a greenhouse for Fraser B)! I'm happy that you like so many aspects of the home, such as the greenhouse on top of the house, the lattice roofing, the color scheme of the house and the greenhouse :D! I'm glad you like my use of terrain paint for the flowered grass, lighting and paths, as well as the water fountain, the way I set up the greenhouse, and the swing :)!
