Unfortunately, I can’t share the Temple of Hermes. 

That’s because I built it in two parts – one game for the exterior (this building is empty inside, except for the columns), and another save for this interior in the pic, which is contained in a box, gray on the outside. That’s usually how I play, with different saves for interiors and exteriors.

But I can share the CC I used:

Walls set | ivy garlands | wreaths | altar fire-pits | ceiling canopy curtains

The lyre at Hermes’ feet (he’s supposed to have invented it, though it was Apollo who often used the lyre) and the fire-pit before the altar are from EA’s Store.

The superb lamps on the wall behind the altar are from Lunamai, but her link no longer works.

See HERE for the Hermes Logios.

Like the Hermes, the Temple itself is rather simple and holds not too much CC. Still, I’m liking the outcome better. Suggestions are always welcome!

Cheers!

I don’t mind answering questions about my game privately, but I’ll be answering publicly about this Hermes statue, too. What I have in my game and the tricks I use are no secret.

There is no download of it, since it is a Sim and not a statue. You can recreate it in your game with two CC pieces only, for yes, he is naked:

LeahLilith Valkyrie Earcuff  and Winged Sandals by SilFantasy

I chose this pose so it would resemble The Hermes Logios (Orator)

The skin is one of EA’s from the game. In this case, the worse skin the better, to give him that artificial look in which EA is unbeatable.

Then you’ll need to resize him.

That is all there is to it.

I don’t think I saved him as a Sim, so I’ll have to redo this Hermes… For I have no idea where this saved game is!

FOLLOWERS GIFT 2018 #3

@nativeafua suggested a Sim that she could play around with to turn into a Sci-Fi or Fanstasy Sim and gave me my favourite season as a prompt.

Autumn is my favourite season and as that’s more of a thing in the Northern hemisphere I looked at ancient European Goddesses and found reference to some Celtic and Roman traditions- so I tried to combine a Celtic type look with some Roman features and made Braciaca (which I think might be pronounced Brasiaka but who knows) which has it’s roots in old European words around malt, barley or other grains and beer/ mead brewing. Not much is known about her and she could also be the Goddess or Beer or ‘Mead Intoxication’, both being important in ritual and religious contexts. I thought the name suited the prompt as barley would be harvested in Autumn.

I decided to upload Braciaca with no CC to make her download friendly and usable for simmers who don’t use or only have a limited of CC in game. However, if you don’t have custom sliders she will look different (but hopefully not too much fingers crossed). I use a default skin and eyes so she will appear in CAS with whatever skin/ eyes you use in your game and again, this will make her look different. Feel free to alter her to your liking and slap as much CC on her as you like- but please don’t change her and then pretend that she is yours! Thank you!

Any problems, questions or WCIFs just ask me!

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. 

They can be downloaded HERE and at SimFileShare.

The Roman stencils beneath them are better seen and linked HERE.

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!!
