New world started - Dragonwyck

Ah, thank you ! I was able to make a comment but I think you must have to approve them first since it didn't show up.

This is beautiful! I have this dream to create my own world. Right now it's slow going because I'm not sure how to make the terrain interesting, but I'll get there! :)

I can't wait to see more of your progress. Do you detail areas as you go along before finishing the terrain?

I've been working on a Riverview makeover which I intend to leave blank for others to add lots or to make a save file with lots added for anyobdy not wanting to add the blank lots first.I've got to load CAW up to work on it and get it done.
@@SeriphinaFyie -I like to use save files for built up versions of worlds or a populated version though it would be done in a special Sims 3 folder without my usual Mods.

I really, really love your decorating style! Very beautiful.

IMO, I don't think you need a bunch of islands to change or transition from one area to the next. Didn't you do that in your world Alleria? (Love that world so much but it's a bit too huge for my playstyle. I mean, I really love it - wish you had more of the lots included with that world because they were really awesome.)

I hope you continue with this project - you are so very talented!!!

I detail as I go along. Some people can do all the sculpting first, but I've never had that work out well for me, so I do it in tiny pieces.

Though I understand that blank worlds are your preference, I am not making a blank world.

Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes I had island transitions in that world. I'd intended to upload a complete version, with all lots constructed, but my files got corrupted. So, Lite is the only version there is. Perhaps I'll re-do the builds and upload a save file if I get antsy. I have another world, Lorewood, which I was making for a dear friend. Sadly, she passed away suddenly and I haven't been able to work on it since, but eventually I hope to upload that as well. It's a roadless midieval world.
There's only 3 islands in this one. A larger main island with the majority of the buildings and some rural spaces, the island that is all rural spaces, then the military base is kinda off on it's own to give the atmosphere of being secured from the main spaces. I'm trying to make it more cohesive than Alleria (which was a play on the idea of "all areas", hence why it was segmented.), and it will overall have a more rural feel with a little town area for the major rabbit holes.

Here's a quick picture update. For more details, check out the most recent blog post.

Hi :mrgreen:

It's so picturesque and lovely. Wonderful work. :+1:

Your terrain painting is very lovely.

Oh, it's beautiful! Well done!

That's a lovely painted terrain! :smiley: And well placed flora. Island is small but looks so plentiful because of that. :smile:
