Creating a Sci-fi save

Hey everyone. I usually play in one main save with aging off, but lately, I've been wanting to create a sci fi save. I'm thinking along the lines of: each world could be considered a "planet" with a specific type of architecture and/or people/aliens living there. Has anyone done anything like this? I know there are some people that play historical saves, and, while I've never done that, I'd think a sci-fi save would be quite similar, possibly easier. I do use mods and cc, but after a few quick google searches, there doesn't seem to be as much cc for futuristic/sci-fi stuff as there are for historical. Because of this, I am considering doing a sort of "it's the future/another planet but it's not that different from present day earth" kind of setting, but I'd really rather make everything at least somewhat unique and unusual. (that's the fun part after all) I'm thinking I can use Lot51's fashion authority mod to dress everyone (including the townies) for each "planet"

Some worlds, I'm a little unsure what to do with. Mostly worlds like Copperdale, Willow Creek, and Henford On Bagley that don't really fit with the sci fi theme.

I may never finish this, as I've tried creating a fantasy save before and stopped after placing like three houses from the gallery, but this is something that's been on my mind for a while, and I think I'd be cool once I finished it (and fun to work on as well, as I'm definitely more of a sci-fi kind of guy than a fantasy kind of guy)

Do you think this would work? Any suggestions? Are there any potential problems I'm overlooking?
