@mooredt21 Oh my goodness!! Congratulations on your new arrival, is this your first? Get plenty of rest and do any reading, or hobbies you like before your baby comes. My son is 9 and I still have a couple "baby" projects I have not finished
Thanks. I hope I get a chance to. My baby is due any day now. Some days, I don't feel so great and it's tough to sit in one place long enough to enjoy the game. I better hurry before he comes, though. I have a feeling it might be a while before I get to play or peruse the forums once he arrives.
Nooboo! Congrats on the pending arrival of your Mini-Simmer

It's my first boy. I have two girls, 8 & 4. My relationship with Sims is older than my kids and my marriage. Lol. I have lots to get done before he comes and very little time left to accomplish much. I don't mind though. I love raising my nooboos who also love Sims. Thanks to both you and @rosemow for the well wishes.

Hi everyone! Sorry it took so long but I finally have your new clients up! I can't wait to see everyone's creations
This is a Sims 4 build challenge, not a competition. There are no prizes, no winners, just simmers....creating together and having fun.
Requirements:
* Sims 4 game( some expansions and stuff packs may be helpful)
* Third Party CC may be used. Give credit to the Creator, thank you.
* tesingcheats may be used. examples: bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement bb.showhiddenobjects bb.moveobjects , for full list see SimsVIP Cheat Codes
*The cheat moveobjects on may be used but the home renovation or build must be playable.
Johnny Zest has just landed the biggest gig of his life! He has won a million simoleon contract from The Solar Flare lounge in the Oasis Springs' Got Talent competition. Not only that but he is marrying his long distance sweetheart, Penelope Pizzazz. It seems Johnny may have stretched the truth a bit and "exaggerated" the details of his home. He has his advance from the contract of 200,000.00 simoleons and needs your help.
He is very attached to his home @ Slipshod Mesquite but it desperately needs improvement before Penelope arrives! He is open to either a renovation or new construction of his home but it must be built on this lot because a Zest has lived on this spot since the beginning of time....well actually, the local lore states that there is buried treasure somewhere on this piece of land and Johnny is not moving until he finds it. If the treasure is found, he could be persuaded to move to another lot. Just sayin'.
What will it take for Johnny and mostly Penelope to Love the Renovation or List it and approve the New Home? Let's see.......
Johnny's Must Haves:
A Swanky ambiance of the space.
A second level or more with a roof top bar/with hot tub
A space to write and practice his comedy routines
A space to entertain his adoring fans
Buried treasure, if he is to be convinced to move off the original lot.
Penelope's Must Haves:
Beautifully landscaped flower gardens
A pond for fishing....Angling Ace is her Aspiration.
A gazebo and decks for rest and relaxation....keeps her man grounded.
Bedrooms to fill with children
A guest house for her parents....who will be visiting often.
The Renovation: "Love It"
*You may not remove any exterior walls....but you may add to them.
*You may remove any interior wall, doors or windows and change the number and placement of each,if you wish.
*You may recolor anything in the house that will allow it ( including walls, window,doors, objects)
*You may add a basement (under home or anywhere on lot)
*You may add additional levels ( levels my extend over the original footprint)
*Landscape plants may be sold but you must replace the landscaping. For instance, sell all the bushes....replace them. The items can be of lesser value and lesser number.
Budget: 200,000 simoloeon plus your household funds. Use motherlode (4x). Should make your household funds: 203,590 simoleons. Household items may be sold to increase your renovation budget.
New Build: "List It"
New Build on original lot:
Start a new save with Johnny Zest. Bulldoze the lot.Use the motherlode cheat 4x and You will now have a budget of 224,156.00. simoleons.
New Build on any 40x30 lot:
Start a new save with Johnny Zest. Move by phone (Tick to Sell Furniture) to any 40x30 lot in any world. Remember that in Oasis Springs or Willow Creek that cost of the lot depends upon which residential area you choose. In Newcrest all 40x30 lots are 3,000.00 simoloens. Household funds should be 23,156.00 (Newcrest). Add 200,000.00 to funds (Motherlode 4x) for a total of 223,156.00 simoleons.
** You must display the "Buried Treasure" somewhere on the lot....inside or out. " Be sure to let us know what you uncovered!
Optional Sim Challenge:
Create Penelope Pizzazz
Ambition: Angling Ace
Traits: your choice
If uploading Penelope please share your link.
Due Date: None. No time limit. Do as many versions as you like.
Your homes must be playable. Please test them before uploading.
Use the hashtag LoveItorListItZest if you're uploading your creations to the gallery.
@Buttonsginger Wow! This Johnny Zest and Penelope Pizzazz build sounds both challenging and fun! I can't wait to give it a try. Sadly my Landgraab attempt got foiled by other challenges. Perhaps I will scrap that for the time being and wait for the Landgraab family to appear on Love it Or List it!
@Buttonsginger hmmmm what about a second story that leads out to a patio bar/hottub? lol I am working on this as we speak, just trying to find a design I can live with.
@mommataurus2 I'd say what ever you can come up with will be just dandy! I left it open so you could do almost anything you'd like....fun...fun...fun...is the key.
@Buttonsginger Ya i am totally moving into this house in real life when its done! The entertainment area alone is so cool! And I think I nailed swanky! Should be posted this evening.....got a little more tweaking to do. Best budget EVER!
The new Johnny Zest challenge sounds great! It will be great seeing the renovated homes or the new homes! It will be good for Johnny to discover the buried treasure too! Penelope is very pretty! She has very nice eyes!
Is the current client Johnny Zest? His budget is 200,000 for renovations?
Hello @axel1015 Yes, the new client is Johnny Zest. You can either renovate the existing home or build a new one for him. You can also do the previous builds if you would like to. There are no time limits.
This particular challenge let's you do ANY of the challenges at any time, as many different variations as you want whenever you want! It is one of MY personal faves! Enjoy! Do Johnny Zest, Caliente and the Pancakes if you want to! :)Or do 7 different Johnny Zest builds! The options are endless!
This home has glass panels that stay OPEN during the day both on the main house and the inlaw suite! And YES that inlaw suite is the exact exterior shape of the original Slipshod Mesquite trailer. The interior walls of that suite are still in the same place. It has merely received a little facelift, some dramatic windows and the Glass Panel OPEN doors.
Out back there is a lit pathway that leads to a dining area in the garden. It's sure to be one of Penelope's favorite places to escape to.
A cozy step-down living room.
For more pics of this fun build please check out my slideshow!
That's Slipshod Mesquite is a very nice home for Johnny and Penelope ! Very nice design of the build! It looks great how you have turned the original home into an in law suite. The open doors look great! It looks very nice how you have used the glass panels in the build! Very nice pool area! The water fountain going into the pool looks nice, and lotus flower patterns on the base of the pool look pretty! The waterfall window is nice there, Nice outdoors armchair sitting areas for sims to enjoy resting in the sunshine. The plants corner looks very nice. Very nice outdoors dining area! The sims will enjoy sitting outdoors in the air at the umbrella covered table, eating food and drinking drinks from the banquet table and fountain. The plants are nice touches there. The sunken living room is so very nice! It looks very nice how you have placed the hedging on the sides there! Sims will enjoy sitting on the sofas around the firepit, toasting food and keeping warm. The eclipse lights look nice there, and the candle, drinks bucket and plant are nice touches on the table. Very nive hot tub and bar counter patio! Sims will enjoy relaxing in the tub and sitting on the stools having a drink from the juice bar, Very nice funshing of the interior of the home! The comedy entertainment room is very nice! The marble flooring and the black stylish curtains look elegantly nice! The bedrooms are very nice. The black candles are nice touches in the double bedroom.
The home is very nice

@mommataurus2That's Slipshod Mesquite is stunning! I can't believe that it began with Johnny's trailer. I agree with you, I'd love to place this in RL! You've outdone yourself! The sunken outdoor living area is beautiful. I love the way you have the fountains continuing from the pool to the sunken space. The rooftop space will be perfect for Johnny to "wow" is fans. The color palette works so well with the town. Perfect! Johnny and Penelope will certainly "Love It"
@Buttonsginger@lionpaws@Rosemow Thank you for the kind comments about That's Slipshod Mesquite. I get alot of inspiration from Pinterest. I saw a similar design on there and decided to run with it. The pic I used for inspiration has a sunken living room, agave planters and the open glass panel doors.
