Sims Talk: Kitchen and Bath Interior Design Stuff
For once, I get to hitch a ride on the bandwagon by finding myself the proud owner of Kitchen and Bath SP on the actual day that it is released. I feel like a huge geek for being so excited about this SP, but I couldn't be happier to have it in my greedy little hands right now. I've really been looking forward to this one. I have a little story idea in mind for showing it off, but I promised myself that I'd spend whatever free time I have this evening on trying to finish the second half of chapter twenty-four. I'm going to try my best.
But first, I just had to express my delight over this SP. It may not be much, but what's there makes me quite happy.
Yes, it really is everything I hoped it would be. I LOVE this hair for Frances. I've been planning a little makeover for him in the near future, as part of his move towards a new outlook on life. I've had my eye on this new hair since the early screenshots for Kitchen and Bath, and boy, does it deliver! It's exactly like his old hair, except he learned a new gel technique. I think the volume adds a nice balance to his face.
Here are a couple of different angles...
He should have no problem finding himself a boyfriend with this look. (Spoken like a proud sim mother.)
Speaking of annoyingly proud sim mothers... here I go again, pulling my little snapshot of Ripp out of my wallet and waving it around. I'm just that predictable.
Here he is the next morning, in a cute little robe, making someone (maybe even you) coffee!
My point with showing you this photo (and I do have one), is to demonstrate the use of my new camera mod. It's GunMod's Camera Mod from MTS2. This shot isn't exactly pushing it's capabilities to the limits, but it does show a lower vantage point than the default camera can achieve. It's great. Now I'm completely shocked and embarrassed that I didn't download this sooner. What was I thinking?
In all honesty, I was thinking that the control of the camera would be too different and I'd have to re-learn it, like when I re-learned how to knit. Once I got the hang of the "proper" way to knit, it was much easier, but it took quite a while. That wasn't the case with the camera mod. It's exactly the same, only better, and with more options. Very nice.
Now, I'm off to use the shiny new camera to take some photos for the next update...

I did intend to include this shot, but I forgot.
Fat (purple) Frances must rock out as a grilled cheese sim. I love it! :P
It's hard not to spam people with pics of your favourite sims. Thankfully, most people who read this journal can appreciate my mad love for these sims. I'm all about seeing people squee about their beloved sims. It warms my heart.

Unfortunately, I have not played Fat Frances since I made him have that as a secondary. He'll be soo much fun though! Unfortunately, I haven't made that purple outfit available for adult yet. Guy is popularity/family now and he keeps wanting to adopt like 10 kids.
Speaking of Frances spam... Have you checked out This entry of mine? Tons of Purple Frances spam there.
