Might revive this. Back up! *defibrillator sounds*
My inspirations meanwhile come from anywhere, be it
Houseplans.com,
Oldhousedreams.com(OHD), uploads/ideas from here, random pictures, google searches, Pinterest/Tumblr etc., and real life, ofcourse.
My biggest failures.. I usually eliminate them. I guess the only 'failures' I haven't eliminated are my first uploads here. I actually cringe when I look back at them, but we all gotta start somewhere
One epic failure which turned out great has to be back when I played TS2. I build a home which was inspired by Donald Duck comic, and it was a box with a roof. I ended up playing with that home for serveral months and absolutely loved it for its simplicity, and it looked great in the neighbourhood.
Fails usually occur when I've milked a specific building style, or try one again.
Also when trying out new techniques and/or styles there's a 50/50 chance of it either looking good or just shitty.
Best example would be my
Coastal Delight. I've never really had good looking Craftsman homes before, and I tried some new techniques on it, and well.. I can only repeat myself; I'm still learning
That's all I can think of right now, I have a long history of building, startingeven way before I became active here on MTS.
