    Ok my In Progress Isle Port

    Sea life added via Fog Emitter (still have to balance what is too much/too little).

    ooh I am so happy! I have been adding your lots and some others to Monte Vista. I built Willy Wonka's chocolate factory there and thought the steampunk and whimsical lots would fit so nicely! I downloaded the Steampunk flying houseboat from the exchange (what a cool build!) and was just wishing there were some dive lots in Monte Vista. I would be happy to test them out for you when you are ready!
    Thank you for sharing all your beautiful work.

    OMG Pics?! I just watched the Tim Burton one yesterday and I love even the original. I so wanted to do one (a reason to one day use sweet treats :lol: ) but never did.

    I wish you would! I am sure it would be amazing! I will go in game and take some picturs. I wish I could find a way to make the chocolate river...
    I have a few rooms to do yet but the chocolate room is done. Right now its a working restaurant. I moved Willy onto a houseboat with his 3 Oompa Loompas. LOL

    Can't use do really shallow water and terrain paint the dark brown? or do pool/fountains with the walls floor recolored to look like chocolate?

    Can't wait to see the pics :D

    I am thinking about having a Steampunk-Pirate Ship, a regular Pirate Ship + Port all at the same time but see how it goes :D

    Well, maybe it was just too deep. I will see if going more shallow helps. Thanks for the idea!

    My Steampunk Merchant Houseboat, I am going to call it 'The Golden Compass' cause of the lunar/steampunk globe thingy :P

    Ok thought this is almost done you might not get it right away, I want to up load with a port (if my island port starts behaving better) or I'll up load with another houseboat. I don't know why but smaller upload I like to group or really I just like uploading in pairs+ unless a huge build :P BUT I'll try to have it up this weekend :)

    Picture Heavy! but as you can see I have lots of space filled with clutter so if you need/want to place items that need a bit of room you can make room more than easy (ie. remove all upper deck barrels should have room for 2 rows of plant pots with room down the middle. want room for: bonedelina, alchemy station or a work bench? remove the crates and chest below deck).

    I really want to keep this in my build but it renders the item unusable so what is better looks or use?

    Your port is looking great and your Golden Compass is fantastic! The gilded arches (are they the circus ones) look so good over the front of the boat where the steering wheel is. Super job!! I look forward to seeing both of these in your studio!

    Karilyn Monroe -- your WW lot sounds great! I'd like to see it, too. :)

    The Golden Compass looks great! It looks good how you are using the fish tanks. Great colours you have used. The sea charts/maps on the wall look good. The clocks and achor on the front od the boat looks great. I hope that your island port works out so that you can upload them both together.

    I'm a big fan of Steampunk...and this ship is looking pretty awesome Hollowness! Love the design and all the goodies you incorporated into it. The Golden Compass is very cool...I think it should stay...even if it is unusable. I usually use the moondial as a garden orb and my sims never use it.

    Yeah it is very stereotype steampunk but I also made it very simplistic so it could be a houseboat for light use but looks for sure! I mean for a themed world putting in 2-3 steampunk to pirate ships for looks might be all it is used for anyways since at this time dive lots have to be made by you if you are out of IP. :)

    Yeah I like it too much to remove it and it is the origin of the ship name :P ;D
