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.
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.
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.
Thanks to @baufive, who patiently helped me step by step in this project, I can bring you this set of 6 female head themed mosaics.
Instead of the faded Greek and Roman mosaics we find nowadays in museums and archaeological sites, I wanted them shining new. After all, my story takes place in the 2nd century CE, when these mosaics were being laid. In fact, I’ll try to picture an artist actually building one of them at one of the houses in my Oneiroi story. Note that not all of the mosaics in the set are historical finds, and not all of them stand from the same historical period.
2×2 in size, you’ll find them under Decor>Rugs, at the cost of 133.
I hope you enjoy it, and I’ll keep them coming – more mosaics, frescoes, and reliefs, to decorate a Greco-roman world, your Sims 3 museums, palaces, villas, etc.
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.
Yes, I made a few more of those… More truly roman this time, since I lifted them from rendering of Pompeii murals. Made three of those (to be found in game under paint, this time!):
As you can see, all of them are on one panel, so you can use them on their own, but they also work with each other (sort of):
Woah, busy! and before anyone says anything, the black wall is slightly pixelated if you come too close…
See? Sorry, couldn’t do better, it came from a XIX century illustration, and the image was a bit small to begin with. It works okay in game, though, as long as you don’t stick your nose up the wall:
