Friends, this is my first Sims 3 CC ever – a set of 8 big paintings with Arcadian and Greek Mythology themes, that I plan to use as frescoes in the houses of Oneiroi.
My illustrated story Oneiroi takes place in several countries around the Mediterranean in the 2nd century CE. The surviving frescoes of that period look understandably wrecked now – so this is my alternative to make them look “freshly painted” on the walls they shall decorate. The styles presented here differ considerably from the original art of that period, I know – but well, this is the art of Simprovisation.
You all know the Luna I mean. The one with hands-down the most fantastical otherworldly and romantical historical cc that you ever did see. Well, @tyrellsimsoficeandfire and I had the same thought that it would be GREAT if they could be customized with heraldry. The problem is Luna’s meshes made that pretty difficult.
So, here for you today is a completely re-meshed and re-textured banner, in the same dimensions and overall appearance of Luna’s original banners (otherwise known as “tapiz 2 and tapiz 4”).
A small and large version with multiple presets with RGB mask heraldic imagery.
A small and large DIY version with 7 overlay slots. I did NOT make useful overlays here. This is PURELY for DIY purposes. I may release a version with overlays soon, but for now, these two are DIY only.
Also included: all 4 TSRW projects and a text file with instructions for cloning and changing out the overlays. I also briefly explain how to do this with Texture Tweaker, but be warned, if you clone using S3OC and use Texture Tweaker on it, you will likely get warnings to say it doesn’t work. You can (I believe) safely ignore those messages and the files still should work fine and you should still be able to change the presets with Texture Tweaker. If anyone knows differently, please let me know!
I would be THRILLED if you share your custom versions of this. Tag me and I’ll reblog! But PLEASE be sure to clone the item so that it has a different OBJD number, so that it won’t conflict with other people’s projects, or mine! Thanks!
ea-edit potions | one thing that definitely belongs to the ‘magic month’ are these lovely potion bottles from the gothique set at the TS3 store, I separated the tray and the bottles into single objects, both are now fully recolourable.
Dear friends, here I come with more CC of mine that nobody wants – but that I need to create a Greco-Roman world, and might as well share with you 🙂
These 5 frescoes depict episodes of the life of Apollo, as related in Ovid’s Metamorphosis. They are neither Roman nor Greek but Italian of origin – studies attributed to Jacopo Guarana, an assistant and associate to Tiepolo.
Dear friends, this is a little, simple something to add to the Greco-roman custom sets of frescoes and mosaics I have been sharing.
These 7 Roman themed stencils can be found under Decor > Paintings. EA’s default wall paintings were used on the top pic to show the stencils’ size and where they fit onto the walls.
They are not recolourable – but their contours are, as shown in the bottom pic. A minor detail, but that does give blending options, so that the stencils fit, fade or stand out of the wall, to your liking.
Their thumbnails in game are really small, though – you’ll find them costing 33.
I need them for the frontispiece of the several temples I’m building, as an improvised decoration. You can see it in use in this pic. But however you use them, I’d love to see it!
There is 10 of them, in different colors and shines, at the cost of $33.
You can download them HERE, along with the other Roman and Greek themed CC I have been releasing. And now at SimFileShare too!
I hope you enjoy them!
I just don’t understand why their preview looks like crap here on Tumblr, since they look very pretty in game.
