    in The Sims 3 Builders
    I've been working on my building in game for a while, and would relish some feedback, so I'm creating this thread to showcase some of what I've done - a bit of shameless plugging can't be bad either!

    Most of the lots have been for BnS competitions, but I've also been experimenting with some of the cheats to try and improve. Please let me know what you think...

      The landscaping for Rock Country modern looks great. I like the drive down garage. I like the olive green color on your asian. Nice job
      Leaving recs for both pic stories! Are you not able to upload the lots? Would love to rec them for you. Also the link is not working. I had to go to your studio to view the stories.

      Thanks Kimjo! For some reason I have started having issues uploading to the exchange, which is why my most recent lots haven't been put on there. I am working on the problem and will post here when I finally get it working.

      I've also fixed the link to the story as well (at least that was an easy fix!)

      Thanks for the comment KrazyAngel, and thanks for the rec Kimjo :D

      I am bemused tho - Sunset Riad has more downloads than I've ever got before (and in 24 hours alone!) with 151, but only 3 recs...and one of those was mine :D

      Is this an experience that others share?

      Downloaders are notoriously bad about rec'ing! Advertising your lot like on this thread will usually get you more notice and appreciation. I love your use of the Hacienda items in the latest lot! Very lovely :) I left you a rec.

      One thing about your covershot - it looked a little squooshed. Make sure you're cropping to 512x512 (not just resizing the pic). Also it looked a little dark. I think you might have gotten even more notice on the exchange with a lighter pic. You might check out Fidlerten's Showcasing your Lot thread for help in picking the best covershot.

      Happy Building :)

      I'd like to share my newest build, which was done for the copycat challenge. It's a 2 bed, 1 bath home.

      It does contain Alpine Windows from over at TSR, so avoid it if you keep a cc-free game. Download here (and rec if you do!)

      I should just mention that the build has one small item of CC - the shutters are from MZ over at TSR as the in-game shutters didn't fit on the windows.

      Lea, I've noticed a definite progression as you've showcased your builds. Your interiors, landscaping and architecture get more sophisticated and detailed. Great job! :thumbup: Can't wait to see what you come up with for the bed and breakfast!

      I agree with Scoiattolo. You definitely are improving very quickly. I can't wait to see your continued progression. Your two newest ones are my favorites. I left some recommendations for them.

      Well, I haven't finished one of my own lots for quite a while! Been involved in the team challenges, and of late they have been epics! The build I've just added has turned out to be a bit of a slow burner, but the guys over at Fids showcasing thread have really helped me tweak the final touches. Your thoughts as always gratefully received x

      May I present "Pampass-ion", a luxury mansion with master suite, two reception rooms, nursery, office, guest bedroom(s) and even quarters for the butler!
