Hello all!I decided it's time I finally created a thread where I could showcase all of my builds. Here, you'll find the things I make for occasional contests and challenges as well as ones I make for my own games. I'm also planning to make a couple Disney inspired build, so you can look forward to that. I won't be making huge castles because they are unruly when it comes to playing, but we shall see how it goes. All the builds shown here are devoid of cc and can be found on the gallery. I love constructive criticism, so please, go ahead and tell me what you think! I've been building for a while, but not as much as a lot of people here, so I'm sure I have plenty to learn. And with this, enjoy!

I'm probably not going to add older builds here, since it would take forever to upload all the pictures again, so to get started, here is my most recent build. Halloween is coming and I recently bought Spooky Stuff, so I decided to make a house that is both fun, quirky and slightly creepy, all ready for Halloween. Here is the download linkI tried to make the house look less symmetrical than my usual builds.https://i.imgur.com/umpmEdd.pngIn the backyard, there is a murky pond, some decor and training equipment which, to some, might as well be a torture implement.https://i.imgur.com/8GvgnI5.pngLet's go from right to left for the living room, which is the first thing you see when coming in. I tried to put in entertainment for sims of all ages. Notice there is very little tech in this home: no tv, no computer.https://i.imgur.com/7NAG9Q7.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/uTDpqZ9.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/M5vsSZc.pngThe living room leads straight to the kitchen...https://i.imgur.com/qmTfjkI.png...and to a tiny office space for when you need some quiet.https://i.imgur.com/0ANNl69.pngThe upstairs landing as some strange paintings.https://i.imgur.com/2j5E83j.pngHere is the main bedroom. It has an on-suite bathroom. I tried to keep the Halloween theme, but tone it down slightly.https://i.imgur.com/6e9hhhp.pngAs for the family's two kids, they love Halloween and they embrace it.https://i.imgur.com/s0zWYDC.pngI hope you like this! Stay tuned for more builds!

It is great that you have set up a showcase thread for your builds! :) Creepy Fun Party House is a great home for Halloween! :) The exterior design of the home, the roofing, the exterior wall texture and the greenery on the walls look very great! The double steps front entryway looks very nice. The ghosts and pumpkin are great touches. The murky pond in the backyard looks great! Sims will enjoy keeping fit using the weights machine. Very nice spooky themed furnishing of the interior! The black wooden wall texture gives a great feel to the rooms! Very nice living room! Sims will enjoy sitting in front of the fireplace chatting, or have fun playing with the toys from the chest or the dollhouse , playing darts or the llama tabletop game, and enjoy playing the piano or listening to it being played. They will enjoy doing pumpkin carving! The spooky skelly bear and the pumpkin floor rug look great in the room! Very nice kitchen and eat in dining area! The Halloween decor item on the dining tabletop is a great touch there, and the orange colour of the flooring suits the home type well. The black and orange colour scheme of the home looks great! It is nice that there is a study desk nook for sims to enjoy playing chess or reading a book at the desk. The portrait paintings look great on the upper landing wall! Very nice wallpaper used for the master bedroom. The pumpkin lights look great. The spiderweb wall pattern, pumpkins and hand wall candle look great in the kids bedroom! It is a very nice Halloween home! :)

Thank you for taking the time to do this, @rosemow. It is always appreciated. :)

I surprised myself yesterday. This time, it didn't take me weeks to complete a build, but a single day! I just bought the Movie Hangout stuff pack and wanted to play around with it as I built a new house for my sims. I played around with all the patterns and colours, trying to mix a lot of colours and make it look quirky without being painful to the eyes. Every colour I used, I brought back in some other spot in the room. Well, on to the pictures, shall we? And it you want to download it, here is the link.This is the front of the house. It's the one part I'm not entirely satisfied with. It seems I can't ever make facades look interesting. Anyone got tips for that? https://i.imgur.com/cNX4sRN.pngOh well, on to the entrance and the beginning of the tour.https://i.imgur.com/XA9Wtxj.pngThere is a small bathroom right next to that entrance.https://i.imgur.com/BMbAF1N.pngBut if you go left when leaving the entrance instead, you get to the open living space including the living room, kitchen (separated by a half-wall to hide the mess), dining room and a play area for children. I gave myself so many strange colors to work with on this one that it was a little difficult, but I think the end result is interesting.https://i.imgur.com/2oaTf6D.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/FcX4Imp.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/uYMe23H.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/1ICl5GG.pngThere's also an office space for my sim, who not only loves movies, but makes a living writing scenarios. She needed some peace and quiet for writing and proof-reading.https://i.imgur.com/zMHGHJV.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/HCCdWEy.pngOutside is a spot for gatherings, whether to watch movies or have a dance party. https://i.imgur.com/YnCZitg.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/05OiaYz.pngLet's go upstairs.https://i.imgur.com/qS6dvIP.pngThere's another bathroom of course. https://i.imgur.com/Vz4qPcc.pngThe child's bedroom. She loves pink.https://i.imgur.com/emN1l4o.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/5nVqr22.pngAnd the master bedroom, which my sim kindly let his wife decorate however she wanted. https://i.imgur.com/6GAzKYZ.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/29au2QK.pngStill, anyone would enjoy that balcony, so who would complain?https://i.imgur.com/0Ci7x17.pngI hope you like this build! As usual constructive criticism is always very much appreciated! I mean it.

@BlueShreve They do look nice, but I avoid cc in my games. Thanks, though!

Thanks for the kind comments, @rosemow I'm glad you like the exterior! Placing the plants can take a while, but I think it was worth it.

Oops! I forgot to keep this thread up to date. Here is a build from last month, my contribution to the BuildandShare challenge here on the forum. The Windenburg Townhouse.

Then I just added this park to the gallery. It's built in Selvadorada, right next to the jungle entrance, and is meant to welcome families with children and dogs. I built it for the GLovelysQCC79 challenge, which was to build a park with a pool that would be welcoming to dogs. It does lack a fence, but I wanted to make it blend in with the surroundings and be accessible for strays and such. There's plenty of things for dogs to do (and a bowl for when they inevitably become hungry) as well as playground equipment for children and toddlers and a high chair for toddlers. There are also toys strewn about near the tall grass as if they were forgotten there or left for others to enjoy.

I've been doing a lot of building challenges here on the forums these days. Here's my latest build for one of those, BlueprintBuilds37.

The blueprint was made for 4 bedrooms and I stuck to that, making it for a couple with a teenager, a child and an infant (and a cat). I wanted to include some of the sea-themed items from Cats and Dogs and other packs. I imagine one of the adults (or possibly their own parents) used to be a sailor and might sometimes miss travelling and being on a ship. There are lots of little references to fish, the sea, ships, sailing and travel in general.

You can download it in the gallery and see more pictures (though most of them are here) in my Imgur slideshow

Let's start with an overall look of the outside, of course.
https://i.imgur.com/8dewa4V.png

There's a little pond in the front yard. I know it's big and slightly silly for a residential build, but that anchor is what got me started on a theme and general feel for what I wanted XD.

A little creative corner right between the entrance door and the stairs.

I scattered toys kind of everywhere.

Dining room and kitchen (so far, it's all open living)

I just love the look of the backyard at sunset

There's a sort of family room upstairs between all the bedrooms.

Another build! (I may be procrastinating XD) This one was for Build and Share 172. I took a lot of pictures of this one, so I'll share a few here, and you can see more on Imgur.

This house is called Watermelon Home. As usual, it can be downloaded on the gallery.
