yellowrosetxI figured out why the willow trees looked off here.
Willows grow better near water so having them near a pond was fitting. Thing is, the cottage is supposed to be in the woods. Those willows looked odd all by their lonesome. I went with ash trees. Oak might have been better, but the tall trees imply that the cottage and woodlands it was built in have been around a while. This is how the place looks within the trees that hide it.
This is how it looks once you get past that first layer of trees. The two on the walking path are rowan trees.
There's a minor addition of a water trough outside the fence; it's for her canine companion. I'm considering a change in the windows to ones with shutters. If I find a stonework texture that I like better for the exterior, I might change that, too. The rest of the outside layout is now staying put; I'm happy with it. :)

Date: 2008-01-29 12:47 am (UTC)I might end up doing a custom neighborhood which could be fun! I love the game, but I also make use of a couple of hacks from time to time that let me keep them from starving.

I suggest Beck's Creations at modthesims2.com ( http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=265231 ) I have her rideable horse in mine. I haven't tried that part of it out, but it looks great in the setup.
You can get lost on that website there's so much stuff. ;)
