Thought this would be a fun way to show off the sims we're playing with now with just one picture of them and one of their home, and then as time goes on we can come back to this thread to see how our households and homes have grown and changed over time!
So, as the title says, share your current sims and their home here!
I spent most of my playtime today creating him and starting on his house. It's going to be an old cottage in the most logical spot -- Magnolia Promenade. :lol: I'm out of room in most worlds, so I decided that when the corporate fat cats bought up most of the property in that area, this old homestead held out. The house is inspired by a real cottage in the town where James Blunt grew up in real life. It's not finished yet.
I still have more to do on his house. Eventually, I will put shrubs and stuff all around the stream to make it look natural instead of manmade. I need to do more work on the bridge, the terrain, and other things too. I spent some time dealing with routing issues. I wanted him to use the bridge to go home, and I wanted the stream to be swimmable.
The house has been in his family for generations, but most of the furniture had to be sold over the generations to pay bills. So some of it is old furniture, and some of it is his stuff. He was in the military, so I tried to give some of it that vibe. He's just starting out, so he doesn't have much money, and he's been traveling with the military, so he doesn't have a lot of possessions anyways. His focus is mainly on his music, so I tried to reflect that in the house. He doesn't spend his money on a lot of rugs and things like that.
I decided the old house would have had a stable in the past. At first I was going to have him use it as a garage or something, but then I decided to give him a horse.
Today I added Jean-Luc Picard to my Star Trek: The Next Generation household. I originally added them to a random Maxis house that looked something like this:
This is the downstairs. He has lots of room for entertaining. He only has a kitchenette, not a full kitchen, because he eats with the rest of his friends.
Here's a "new" family I'm playing currently, which consists of twins Daniel and Jayden Lin. They're actually an old family of mine from when I first got the game, and their mom is one of the first sims I ever made, but I wanted to start fresh with them, so I gave them makeovers and moved them to a new save. Their parents and younger siblings live in Mt. Komorebi, and I might play with them as well, but the twins are my main focus https://i.imgur.com/NuL2Oa0.png
They have a cat named Nacho https://i.imgur.com/LJt99Kw.png
They live together in this apartment in Evergreen Harbor. Jayden is currently a civil designer, and Daniel is studying Drama at Britechester. I'm hoping for them to get enough money for an actual house, so Jayden has room to start making candles and selling them on Plopsy. https://i.imgur.com/4Npl50f.png
Okay, finally have knocked the 'bugs' out of my newest build after having my family move into it. Best way to find those pesky problems, no? Here is the original house I built for my Global Superstar, as it appeared in Sims' Better Homes & Gardens.
Backstory is, due to a dryer fire, the house suffered a great deal of damage. Even though it was restored, the stench of smoldering wood couldn't be removed. So, Erik had another house built. But, first, let me introduce you to my family.
Here is Erik Cantrell and his first three children: the eldest, Jamison, and his younger identical twin sisters, Melodie and Harmony on the day the photography crew from the magazine came to show off the young Global Superstar's house. https://i.imgur.com/phZDu2U.jpg
Here is Erik and Kayleigh just prior to the conception of their 'fourth child', Andrew

@Ellupelluellu Wow! Hannah grew up into a very beautiful child eh? I knew she would considering her parents are good looking as well. Cute room too! Thanks for the update! :)
This is the home of the sim I've been playing the past couple of days. It's a slightly renovated and completely redecorated version of a lovely original from the Gallery by marjia. The sim who lives here is originally from the city, so I chose to give the house a much more urban styling than one might usually see in the Newcrest suburbs.

This is the homeowner, An Evans. He loves warm colors, especially reds and peachy-pinks. And also French toast, apparently.

The house was meant to serve as a single person's home for quite some time, so I haven't finished the upstairs yet. But I guess I'll be forced to do it now, as An juuuust learned that there's an unexpected new family member on the way. I'm not including more exterior views because I forgot to take more. Oops, lol. But here, have another view of the dining room, plus the kitchen.
That house looks very cool, I like it. In reallife would get crazy although, because everyone would be able to peak in, but it's really a good build. Good job.
