Maxis Makeover Houses

[SommarBlomma]

For those who like to give new looks to those not so pretty Eaxis buildings. Let us see what you've made of them.

I'll start with that luxury beach hotel on Twikkii Island. I didn't change it much, but still...

the hotel is completely empty inside, as you can see through the windows.

SommarBlomma the hotel looks so much more inviting after you re-made it. The roof you chose makes the hotel seem a lot more open and appealing.

This was my play-a-long version of house 3 for the Pleasantview Makeover contest (http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=487463) that Jones held at the end of last year. I chose the Mason family for this one and decided I didn't want to show pics without adding a few family photos and personal touches from the family around the house first, so I finally redid the photos after playing the family far enough to do just that! (Then had a long delay until I got round to resaving a few of the pics where the filesize was too large!)

Enough rambling though, here's 225 Main Street:

I love your makeover croutonia - I've never tried to makeover that house because its seems so hopeless, but you've made it cosy and contemporary. :-)
