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. 

You can download them HERE and at SimFileShare (sims3pack)

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.

I’m uploading all my Greek and Roman CC to SimFileShare, so there’ll be a few reblogs ahead.

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 can get them HERE or on SimFileShare (sims3pack)

The collection appears as Arcadia and Greek Mythology in the launcher, and its cost is 150. I used this set by Gelina as base, thanks so very much!

Just let me know if there is any problem. Hope you enjoy it!!

More Roman walls

yourpicasso25:

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…

image

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:

the others are a bit less problematic

separated, both simspacks and packages. Enjoy!
BTW, I have some more walls picture I can use to make some more. Anyone interested, or no need to bother?

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s a town!

yourpicasso25:

Or possibly the God Mercury running along to cover Jupiter tail feathers  before Juno realizes he’s been unfaithful AGAIN!

Mount Olympus must have been a noisy place, in the early mornings… just sayin’…

Anyway… Sol Valle is now really looking like a town!

Still a few holes here and there, but filling up (yes, I used some of those domi and insulae more than once, when I could)

Next to the Coliseum, I added a home/prison camp for the local gladiators:

And to supply “fresh meat” (so to speak), the local police force building:

They’re overlooking the port and keep an eye on things… And people!

Speaking of port, I added another supplier for the Coliseum…

If one needs a few wild animals to entertain the locals! And when I say wild…

I mean it! …Well, the lot is called “the horned lion” because:

So I’m not positive the owner doesn’t get creative now and then with the merchandise… Not all that bad. If I was an early Christian, a lion that doesn’t move around much would certainly be far better!

The aqueducs are taking clean, fresh spring water from the mountain to the town reservoir:

Which is cleaned regularly, of course! then the water goes down, as water is wont to do, in pipes, to the town.

Lead pipes… Yeah, right. Glass of wine, anyone?

this is so great, with aqueducts, the arena being built… so pretty!

Spinning Wheel Pose

I’ve been wanting to make a pose with this object for ages!

-> Spinning wheel by Katelys

  • It’s not 100% realist, because I didn’t have a strand of flax :/
  • Positioning needs to be fine-tuned with alt-key. It’s easiest to place the chair last. Take care you place the wheel facing the right direction.
  • Unfortunately it doesn’t work so well with long or wide skirts, but to some degree this can be hidden.
  • As usual, list, nolist and code are included. 
  • The code is a_danjaley-spinning1

SimFileShare / Dropbox

Because Roman ladies spent a whole lot of time on a spinning wheel.

These Roman medallions look like huge coins because that’s exactly what I modeled them from, based on these wall plates by [Noir and Dark Sims].

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.

I’m uploading all my Greek and Roman CC to SimFileShare, so there’ll be a few reblogs ahead.
