Day and Theme: Day 55 - Clown/Circus/Amusement Park Gallery name & link: Clown Cottage & Bobo the Clown Origin id: icanhassims Link to slideshow: https://icanhassims.weebly.com/day-55-clowncircusamusement-park.html Notes: I struggled with how to make the house colorful enough for a clown without just going with tacky mismatched items. Hopefully, I struck somewhat of a balance. I also really loved the idea of the guy always being in clown make-up, no matter what he's doing. Pictures of the build/CAS:
Clown Cottage
Notes: Another attempt at pushing myself out of my comfort zone by (1) building a modern build and (2) creating a sciencey Sim. I… don’t think it’s working. Am going to get back to creating artsy Sims and historic houses soon. Haha.
@icanhassims I really like how unexpectedly you have interpreted the Day 54 - Business Sim/Retail Store challenge! Like you might normally think of modern/glass and steel structures etc. for such a challenge but you went in a completely different direction with an ancient/antiques take on it.
Thanks, @tatselk! I was having trouble going the high-class route and am pretty happy with how it turned out. Also, I think you did a great job on your build! I loved the interior.
Day and Theme: Day 57 - Fairytale Gallery name & link: Little Mermaid's Dining Room & The Little Mermaid Origin id: icanhassims Link to slideshow: https://icanhassims.weebly.com/day-57-fairy-tale.html Notes: I tried to make both the build and the CAS as true to the cartoon as I could. That left the dining room a little less decorated than how I would usually do it up, but it still came out as nice and elegant, I think. Pictures of the build/CAS:
Hi - was just wondering if I could join this challenge? I really have enjoyed looking at the creations by many especially @icanhassims 's Sabrina Spellman ! I'm not too good at building, I just quite enjoy interior design but the character/cas part seems something right up my street!

So here is my day one sim! She didn't turn our how I wanted her to as the overlay seemed to cover eyebrows and other accessories I tried to put on her but I think she still turned out alright

@tinker_bella OMG your sims are so awesome! I love all three of them that you've posted. I'm horrible at getting sims to look like their characters outside the sims worlds, and you did an amazing job. Also, don't worry about how many you do in a day. I've totally done two or three in a day before. The thing I love about this challenge is that it's so flexible. No real rules, just inspiration.
Notes: Did this after getting the Vampires and Paranormal packs in the recent pack sale.
I created Vespera especially for my first ever playthrough of the Paranormal pack.
Was inspired by all the references to Lady Ravendancer in the new Paranormal pack to come up with my own headcanon of why the Goths’ house, Ophelia Villa, is the only Goth house in The Sims franchise to not have its own cemetery.
Also, this build was inspired by Inveraray Castle.
Notes: This is probably my most architecturally ambitious build yet. First time that I have attempted building a two-storey room and added a dome/lantern to a build!
Also, I realised that the CAS stuff for Discover University is surprisingly cute.
@texxx78 Thanks for your kind comment! This challenge is loads of fun because it is so flexible and helps me to get out of my comfort zone. Don't be afraid to get started on it! Maybe you can ease into it by starting with the days of the challenge which are closer to the types of Sims/Builds that you normally create.
@tinker_bella First off, there is no "don't do more than one in a day" rule. Take the challenge at your own pace. Second, your sims are GORGEOUS! really well done!
@tatselk That library build Wow, your building skills are really improving!
@texxx78 Don't think of the challenge as being only for the talented ones! I made the challenge especially for people who need an inspiration or practice in either CAS or building or both. It's all about practice making perfect, not the other way around. I'd love to see your takes on the themes!
Also: I'm still around. Been lurking a bit. However, I've really getting back into Sims lately. Started working on my next day (Middle Eastern Influence) .. which I've been dreading. Anyway: here's a sneak peek.

@IllusoryThrall Thanks for the kind comment. Your Middle Eastern Influence WIP looks very elaborate. It must have taken you ages to do!
@texxx78 Yay, you started on the challenge! Your WIP is looking suitably creepy. Can't wait to see the finished build.
