First off, the August founders are up at
pixel_trade - check them out
here. I submitted Appomattox and Shiloh, both named after Civil War battles, because... well, why not, right?
Also, there's a new contest at GoS,
Room with a View - I've joined and I'm totally agonizing over which room to submit. I'd appreciate any opinions!
(These pictures are a little bigger than ones I usually post; do with that what you will.)
The first one I did was a little girl's room.
I like this one, but it doesn't have a great "view," since it's on the second story and I don't really use much neighborhood deco.
Then I did the living room:
I seriously abuse those wall decals.
And then I thought, maybe I should try the laundry room. I really like the way it turned out, but for realism I didn't want to put a big window in it, so that resulted in no view at all.
So my last attempt was the dining room.
(Ohai build mode lines :/)
Eh. I don't know. I haven't really done much of the "garden" part, because I'll need to go on a major downloading spree for that. But what do you guys think? Which room do you like best? Are these totally non-alternative?
I'm going to wait to post until I've seen a few of the other entries because I'm not really sure what they're looking for.
