Willow Pond Park - A Sunset Impressions Lot

lmsmbulfroglmsmbulfrog Posts: 793 New Member
So I have caved to the pressure of posting my own thread about my first ever Lot upload.

[IMG]http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m232/Flaminya/Sims 3 Screenshots/Covershot.jpg "height=450" "width=600"[/IMG]


It was made in participation with the www.buildersboulevard.com Monet neighborhood. It is a homage to Claude Monet and his Willow Pond Paintings.

The Story is here: http://www.thesims3.com/contentDetail.html?contentId=111554

And the Lot is here: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=1349744

I truly hope you enjoy.

    Thank you BreanneStone and Anjubee.

    I took on the project to stretch myself (and force my first upload as well) and it was full of firsts.

    First time to use CFE
    First time to use moveobjects
    First time to use terrain paints
    First time to adapt an image for a cover shot
    and of course
    First upload of a lot ever to the exchange (never uploaded in TS2 at all!)

    And I was so nervous to upload it. LOL!

    I am glad you caved and posted this lovely park in a thread. Beautiful and peaceful. I might have to make a genius, artist, Monet sim and send him there to paint constantly. Maybe even a buddy sim Renoir. And as far as all the firsts, "Welcome to the dark side." ;)

    yay now i get to post on one of your threads instead of the other way round. i think this is very beautiful and i can't believe this is your first lot upload :shock:
    i am very happy you chose to post a thread as well as all the creators can come look at your great work. i look forward to seeing new lots as well. don't feel obligated though. only upload if you are happy with it.


    P.S. i never uploaded any TS2 lots either because i never took part in the community. i am glad i have for TS3 though since i have met some great people including you.

    see you around on the forums
