It is looking perfect GC! I love the architecture and the landscaping! Love the horse training area and the gorgeous interiors. I always admire your CASing! Recommended and added to my favourites. :thumbup: :thumbup:
I be much more incline to downloade a lot with maniquíns if I could also downloade the outfits...
hmmm just got an idea...
I uploaded various horse riding wear recolours to my studio. It's not enough enough to fill every single outfit slot for the mannequins, but it will cover Everyday (and maybe make Formalwear, Athletic, and Outwear a little bit easier too) for teens, YA, adults, and elders. You can browse through them here.
Your new build Horse Training Grounds is beautiful Greencats. It has a lovely serene feel to it, the landscaping looks natural and suits the building perfectly.
Rec'd of course. Hugs Folly
Finally took the time to read through these GC. Leaving quite a few recommendations. I really like your decorating style and your choice of colors. A lot of your builds have a very classy, stylish and soothing feel to them. My personal favorites are House Kirabo (downloading that one at the moment, was just to amazingly beautiful and unique from other house boats I've seen that I had to ) and Desert Oasis.
I am absolutely in love with this build GC! Rec'd and yes Fav'd I think this may be an absolute favorite of your builds! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :XD:

Thanks so much! Really nice of you to stop by I hope you enjoy the builds! Lol, wow, Desert Oasis is so old!! I apologize for any weird design choices you find inside

Hi GreenCats, thanks for being the first to join me on the CFE showcase thread. Followed your link to here... my goodness, you have some pretty neat lots but I totally LOVE your interior design flair. Lovely creations :-)

Hi GC, it's been so long since I've been by. Your remake of BB is coming along so beautifully!
Rowan House is Lovely. I love the way the deck tucks into the back corner of the house.
Your CAP pictures are so cool! One of these days, I should really look into how to do that. The only trouble is I'm on a Mac, so I will have to see what's available for that.
Smuggler's Den looks like a great place for thieves and thugs to hang, lol! Glad I could help with the name.
Breaking Waves is such a Stunning piece of work. Those roofs! :shock: I Love them! Very tastefully done both indoors and out. I love the pool area and the little rock garden.
Crow's Nest has a Fabulously done exterior. Once again, I Love the roofs. The tallest part with all the windows is just so cool. I really Love all the custom artwork on the walls, especially the one with the two starfish. Very cool.
The Keystone is Awesome! I hate to keep saying it, but the roof! My gosh, nearly every one of these new homes has a Fabulous CFE roof! The interior pops of color in this one are Lovely. Especially that pretty orange-y master. Very nice ceiling in there too.
Safe Haven. Love This! It's just so very typical of New England beach homes with those beautiful gambrel roofs. I adore the soft colors you chose for the interior and the cool built in bookcases. The new tea set on that pretty table on the porch is just calling to me to come sit and enjoy a cup, lol.
Seaview Training Grounds is Beautiful! I Love the landscaping along the wall and fence. The shop and cafe are both Gorgeous. That picture with the sun setting looks Fabulous!
Everything looks just Fabulous GC! It's going to be such a Gorgeous town when you're finished. Got everything here Rec'd and Faved. Can't wait to see the next addition! 8)
For the pictures I didn't use CAP. Haven't used that method in a long time! I use S3PE instead to switch in different images to sim photographs, which is much, much, much quicker and easier. S3PE is available for macs
I enjoyed reading your generous, thoughtful post so much - thanks for making my day
GC the boat house I downloaded. Words can not describe how lovely it is. Its a shame the infinity pool concept didn't work but it looks wonderful anyway. Was the routing issues due to the size of the pool or just that there is a pool on the house boat at all?
Oh wow, thanks so much! This is really kind of you
I'm not actually sure about the pool - it was quite a while ago so I can't remember what I tested. The issue I was having when I tried to make it a swimmable pool was that sims would try to swim beyond where the pool ended and start swimming through the floor of the boat. It wasn't game-breaking, but it was annoying, which is why I decided on a fountain instead.

Oops! Sorry for the mistake. :oops: I'm not familiar with either technique, but I think it's something I would like to try. Thank you for letting me know that S3PE is available for macs. I will definitely have to look into it because I really love the way your prints look in your builds. Thank you GC
No need to apologize - I just wanted to let you know that you don't need CAP
I may have spoken too soon about S3PE's availability for Mac though! I misremembered something I'd read - so sorry :oops: There's a thread about TS3 utilities for Macs here. It seems like Mono (? I know nothing about Macs!) might be the way to get S3PE to run.
If you ever do decide to look into it and mange to get it working, here is the custom pictures tutorial I used. The method is really, really easy after the first couple of tries - at least on a PC. You don't need to open your launcher; you don't even need to exit your game.
Alternatively, if there are any pictures you'd like converted I'd be happy to do that for you and upload them on a small lot for your tester sims to take. I recently converted some of Dolphine's holiday pictures into sim art for her
For my BB makeover I'm also thinking of creating an art shop using custom paintings/photos, with copies of the artwork available in WA treasure chests for sims to take away. It would be a fun community lot but also a way for people to get new CC-free artwork into their games.

Hmm that's interesting. I feel the need to look at my casino boat now cause it has a pool on it. I don't recall any issues but then again most of my testing went into testing the gambling tables and the bar/buffet.
Edit: I'm think it it may be caused by the pool being next to the edge of the boat, interesting little glitch.
Your idea of an art shop with custom paintings and photos for your BB makeover sounds great! It would be a great way for simmers to have new pictures for their homes and builds.
@Cat - Interesting! I think you could be right. Alternatively it's because I've set the pool in foundation rather than directly into the deck.
@Rose - Thank you. I have lots of different ideas for shops and am looking forward to getting to them - jewelry, fish, artwork, inventing. I plan to use the WA chests for all of them. They are so useful!
