    I have health problems, and because of that, I burn through my energy to finish a project, and then crash. So what you see is a rough build inworld, with old school prims. It is from cube and cylinders, plus MP bought railings. And a roof that I just pushed through, it is not visible over the second floor ceiling. I can't seem to find energy to take it up and polish it. Rationally, I have seen things on the Marketplace that absolutely do not look "polished" but I can't do that.

    Sometimes I feel like a tease. I am proud of what I made and want to show off, but is it 'unfair' to keep it for myself?

    No one see imperfections in images like that, but when they buy it and inspect it, they can feel tricked to buy something they thought was better.

    Making a store is harder than it seems. I started once, but could not finish. I could offer demos, but that is a new listing and I must upload textures with DEMO on and make the build no modify and... If I had the energy, I would do it, because who say no to money.

    It looks so nice in the pictures and in world ❤️.  You’re a clever lady and modest!

    I'm just happy the Grand View house is able to be rotated! The others aren't, for some reason ... but had I known that before the release, would've kept one that I abandoned. Hopefully the rotation option will let more people find their forever home 🙂

    Omg I'm feeling a bit dense...how do I rotate it?

    This makes a huge difference! Thank you for letting us know!!

    "Riding off into the sunset" ....  gorgeous shot, somehow an air of sadness about it, though.   I guess all artists sometimes feel a touch of sadness when they hand their creations over to the public?

    And, also, I hope all is OK in Patch's world.

    Two pics in one day ... the pace quickens ...

    Yes, riding off in to the sunset gives a sense of finality like a chapter is coming to a close.  Also two pics within close succession.  I think our wait is about to come to an end ❤️

  5. From Belli Citizens chat just now: [06:34] Patch Linden races up next to the taco truck, jumps out of the coffee truck and heists the taco truck making off with it at full speed towards the unknown void beyond Bellisseria

  6. How I rank these really does depend on the location for me....so my rankings are very much coloured by the homes I've managed to land xD

    1. Houseboats - water for days, small but open space meaning I can use all the spaces and make them functional.  Of course, this is dependent on getting a square block far from neighbours and nice views.

    2. Campers - I managed to grab one without close neighbours and surrounded by water.  For  me being able to sit very close to the water itself has really bumped campers in to second place.  Before landing this parcel I probably would have put campers at number 4 but I haven't seen any Vics or Trads that are this close up to the water and at the same level.  Half the Li is a real bummer but I have found I don't need so much stuff for this type of land.

    3.  Victorians - Omg the landscaping 😍😍😍.  I mean the homes themselves are cute but not really my style.  In the end I made my Vic work for me by going small scale with a Doyle and decorating it with all modern furniture.  The landscaping though...that steals my heart.

    4.  Traditionals - The homes are a little plain and the landscaping is just a little too bare for my taste.  That said I have seen some very clever people do amazing things with trads.

  7. This is the backyard of my Vic in Carville.  @Marianne Little showed me how to mod a pool and build a deck and then I had a go doing it myself.  I'm happy with this as a first attempt at building!  It was a bit of a bulky build so I tried to soften it a bit with a lot of Linden Flowers 🌺 and some box hedges from Botanical. (Thanks for teaching me stuff, Marianne! 🌞)

    I finsh my Verne slowly. I had a Hardy house in the Home and garden Expo, but I was looking at all the other houses. I think it was @Xia Xeviouswho had this half wall. I decided to copy it as soon as I saw it.

    Then I didn't decide what furniture to use. I saw @Sakura Sandshad a new-to-me bathroom set. New things, I like that. Black Nest "Bleka" bathroom at kustom 9.

    I found out that it was a bit too much black, so I used the sink and tub from Bazar, Maldives.

    I think I like it. Not sure about the floor tiles. After I turned them 45 degrees, I like them better.

    Update to the dream. After taking some time to cruise around(finally), I have found the only two houses(parcels) i'd give up my current in Dimanche for without a second thought. Higher ❤️ for the one on the right.

    Both of these are in Carville with their backs facing Alvin.

    Just picked up this marvelous Victorian last night, right by the ocean.  Just wanted to let people know, who are still looking, that great abandoned parcels are still out there!

    Gorgeous, Karyn.  Which region is that?
