More Lots!

As you can see I've been rather busy.  Summerset Bay is finally starting to look like a neighborhood.  Figuring out a road layout, especially for the residential areas was far more difficult than I thought it was going to be.  I didn't want anything too square and rigid. Instead, I was looking for a more natural look.  When you try so hard to be natural it never comes out looking natural.   Finally, I took a break and when I came back things flowed so much better.


There are three main residential sections, two of  those overlook the coastal areas on either side of the bay.  The third residential section is located very close to the city centre area and I have a loose idea to make it look like military housing, since it will be close to the military base.

 When you move out away from the coast and city centre, you'll start to run into farmland.   While browsing MTS I found a Sims 3 version of Riverblossom Hills done by Kiwi Tea. I highly suggest checking the neighborhood out. It's so wonderfully done.  The reason I bring this up would be that I love how the farmland was done in this neighborhood.  It's definitely a great inspiration and source of ideas on how I'd like mine too look.

However, now that I have gotten this far.  The part I was really looking forward too, decorating with the objects and trees, is extremely overwhelming. I'm not sure how to proceed.   I have too many vague ideas.  I think I really need to sit down and formulate a plan of attack.  For the moment I think it's time to take a break and play something different for a day or so.
