Hair Dump... Again

[hat_plays_sims]

Well, I've been home since Thursday night, I still haven't put my Build and Buy stuff back in my Downloads folder... but I come bearing, um. Twenty-one hairs in yet another hair dump. I SWEAR someday I'll put these up on Garden of Shadows, honest, with pretty in-game pics and everything, but right now? Goddamn I just want to share.



Updated with a header and Sims File Share links as of May 25 2022!

Wanna help me feed my cats?

In case you feel like dropping me a buck or two, should you have a buck or two to spare. Donors get two things at the moment: a) a link to the Super Secret Cat Gallery, full of pictures of the cats you'll be feeding, updated sporadically when the cats do something photogenic and I'm fast enough on the trigger to catch it, and b) a link to the list of content I have done-but-not-screencapped, nearly done, partly done, or in the planning stages, and the option to suggest what ought to be in the next batch of things I focus on.

Okay, and since there are twenty-two hairs behind the cut, let's put the boilerplate outside the cut.

One Fish: NO BLOODY PAYSITES. These are Pooklet's actions, Pooklet says no. So don't do it.

Two Fish: Binned! Familied! Compressorized! Meshes included except where you need an expansion pack! Swatches included in the download files!

Red Fish: Elders all have gray-- you get Pipe Bomb for Family One, Smoke Bomb (my homebrew) for Family Two, Mail Bomb for Family Three, and Time Bomb for Family Four. It is complete cluttery overkill, but every color has an elder gray attached, and you may count yourself lucky I didn't just do gray streaks or something. Feel free to re-bin and re-upload as you please, it doesn't hurt my feelings. Time Bomb is included as a custom for all (applicable) ages, since you never know when you'll need a white-haired toddler. Or something.

Blue Fish: Right, so, gotta thank Pooklet, Ja, Quaxi, Theo, Kale, Sugar and Caffeine, FantasyRogue, Bedwyr, Xandher, Ulkrshn, StakeitUK, Coolsims, Newsea, Dora Emon, Yuxi, Jade, Melodie9, Hysterical Paroxysm, HIM666, BeosBoxBoy, Talenzz, SimCribbling, Faceplug, Adele, CutthroatDollie, Augustin, Nissi, Marko, Sussi, Coldfire, Morrigun, Sim Artist's Union, and probably Nouk and always Lyn, because Lyn made sure I had Photoshop, and Photoshop is important.

I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham: OH PLEASE edit my file and/or folder names to taste; I made them ridiculously long so that they could be snipped down to fit folks' organizational systems. If you subfolder these too deeply, they could fail to show due to the name strings being too long. I mean, even I cut things down a bit. Better a ridiculously long filename you can shorten than going "Goddammit, which frickin' hair is this?" later, right?

Some things are just strange. But well, the Sims is a big game, I don't expect everything to make sense :P

Oh my doll houses were for barbies too. I'd go to the local supermarket and pick up product boxes from there. I'd usually cut a door in one of the boxes too, maybe even draw a door knob on. I'd read hobby books or watch tv programs where people would make stuff out of cardboard. I was a very active child when it came to crafts, although I always seemed to be jumping from craft to craft (I did origami, parchment stuff, quilling, clay, plaster casting, that.. coloured rubber stuff, drawing and painting, knitting, needlework, etc etc). I was always up to something, drawing and painting (and sometimes clay modelling) are the only ones that stuck :P

Well, it's the small side room (and yes, neon green), it's not high priority. Between the poo-brown and baby blue master bedroom with one wall covered in floral wallpaper (which prompty took the plasterwork off when we tried to remove it), the "prison grey" woodwork in the halls and the sort of reddish clay brown (like, trying desperately to be terracotta, but failing) in the living room (which also peeled off the walls) we've had our hands full. The apartment isn't really anywhere done with renovation work, it's liveable though, most of the living room and master bedroom are atleast done.

The pole building here (where they stick really really long poles in the ground for the foundation) is done because cities like Amsterdam don't have a strong soil to build on, if they didn't put poles in so deep that they actually hit solid soil (like, 13 meters down or something) all the houses would start sinking and sagging and falling over (and some still do that, some of the really old ones, because they would use wooden poles in the past)

(ooh, having to catch them yourself, lots of fun. Something to really thank the cats for! I'm afraid my husband is immune to kitten videos. You see he's the sensible sort, the "we'll get cat hair all over the place and the smells" type.)

[hat_plays_sims]

Strange and sad. I really wanted to be able to have the single date flower be a different color than the bouquet. *still sulking*

I don't even remember where the boxes came from. I do remember when I was ten or eleven, we bought a dollhouse kit that was on clearance... My sister and I did a lot of the work ourselves, when we finally started putting it together. Of course, it has since fallen apart, but hey. And oh indeed I know how being a restless Maker of Stuff goes.

... Wow. Sounds like you've got your work cut out for you. Did you use a steamer to remove the wallpaper? I'd hardly know where to start with all that, but my first battle cry would be "To the paint store!"

Ah, that makes sense, then. We're on adobe clay in my area, and then sandstone under that. I know it's very, very rare to find a building with a basement in California-- we all build to what's safest where we are.

(And yet, I've managed it twice. Although the first time, I got lucky-- ratty ran up a floor lamp and suddenly had nowhere to go but into my shoebox. ... And then I sort of adopted him. And pft, there are no smells if you use a good cat food and clean the litter box regularly! Hair, I can't help with. They do shed, but all mammals do.)

[fantasyrogue]

Well, technically it should be possible to un-slave it. But that's somewhat more complex and I wouldn't know how to do it off the top of my head.

There's dollhouse kits? I learn something new every day. I didn't have a sister to build stuff with, instead I had a younger brother. We spent a lot of time in his room building LEGO cities though, he'd make the cars and the train and such and I'd build houses and shops. Man, making stuff's great but I need to learn to finish stuff more often :P

Nah it came off relatively easily without a steamer (my dad removed it without our prompting, actually, not that we wanted to keep it. But yeah, that did peel the underlying paint and plaster off as well.. ). "To the paint store" wouldn't have nearly covered it XD We had to replaster a bedroom wall, bring all the woodwork back down to it's original wood with one of those funky blowdryer things for paint (the paint was 8 colours thick in some places and starting to crack and such). Part of the floor was redone because there was a sizeable lump in it (steel girder was coming up, pushing everything up). Walls in the living room were replastered as well. We tore all the laminate flooring out and had it replaced for newer, higher quality, stuff. Some outlets were redone by my dad (and in one place he found an electrical outlet, under an outlet. It was really strange, there was an outlet built into the wal and then some nitwit built another outlet on the wall on top of the other one. That's just a fire hazard waiting to happen, that kinda thing). New kitchen which we're still working on (which was another hazard as, probably the same nitwit, put all the major appliances on the same outlet...).

Now you've got me wondering if any houses in Amsterdam and such have basements... hm...

(I know that, but I can't convince my husband of it. Didn't help that when we moved into this place it was rather smelly from cats and covered with cat and dog fur)
