What is The Lost Island?

The Lost Island is a fictitious place that exists in my head. A place of fantasy fuelled by the TV and film that I watch, the fashion that comes and goes, the stories that I read, and to the soundtrack of the music I listen to. Whilst I’ll try not to delve too deeply in that fantasy, there may be the occasional introduction.

This blog is a place for me to express the things I enjoy, like above; film, TV, fashion, music, and maybe the occasional whine of how crappy my day has been. I will not pretend to be any sort of professional critique or wordsmith, it will solely be based on my opinion, an opinion that I would like to share with you all.

African Wild Dog

A fellow simmer challenged me to create an African Wild Dog for them, using the Sims 3 create-a-pet tools. It wasn't easy but I came up with something I think is passable.

Four Oaks Manor

I have just completed a brand new build for the Sims. This one is a tudor manor house with pastures and a stable block. I'm really happy with how this one came out, both on the outside and inside. It is one of very few houses I gave created which haven't come from an existing floorplan and layout. I did, however, base the front of the house on Cain Manor in Hampshire.

Fallingwater

A few months ago a recreated the famous build by Frank Lloyd Wright, Fallingwater. Since then it has become one of my most downloaded lots.

Palacio Real

It has been a while since my last post but I will be starting to make an effort to keep this up to date again.

Here is my latest Sim creation, which I am pretty proud of. Architectually it is mildly based on the Palace in Madrid but has features from a combination of different palaces. It was built as a request for a fellow sim.

The Sims 3

It has been a while since I last posted. I suspected that that would happen as I can often lose interest in certain things very quickly and then get it back some time down the line.

One thing that I am thoroughly addicted to, however, is The Sims 3. I love playing it and I love its flexibility as far as story telling is concerned. But by far my favourite aspect is the building and the creativity that allows. Whilst I am by no means the best builder out there, I am pretty proud of some of my creations. I tend to lean towards more traditional architecture as I struggle somewhat to create modern/contempory homes that look nice. My landscaping can sometimes live a little to be desired but I like to think I'm improving.

Here's a link to my creations. My Studio
And here are two of my most recent creations.

A short post for now, and mostly just to share some of my work with you. Enjoy, especially if any of you happen to be simmers.
