c.p.'s BAT and Lot Workshop

[metarvo]

It's good to see all of those texture variations.  Nice work, CP!

So much prettyness...it`s like grabbing in a bowl of Gummibears

I've been avoiding New York partly because New York is already so well covered by other batters, and partly because I find lesser-known cities more interesting to explore/discover than well-known ones.  When I get more into Stage 6 stuff, especially for the "New Bedford" set, I'll probably look to New York for ideas.

I see.Actually i was just referring to NY because some W2W in your distinctive Style would be great.I`m very sure other Cities have lots of beautiful W2W Development,too.
However,wish you a happy new Year and can`t wait to see what you are up too this Year.

luvg the progress... 

the lotting is very good...  needs more than knothole peaks to see all you did there... 

can't say enough... but it appears others have stated better accolades...

I'll echo MattB's comment about the larger low wealth houses - not a whole lot of those exist in the SC4 world, even though they are quite common in RL, especially in a more rural setting.  Great texture work and the numerous variations will look amazing in game

I plan to eventually make some stage 6 W2W residentials (probably stage 5 too).


Here are some low-wealth houses for the Appalachia set, inspired by various houses in Kentucky and Virginia:



Here are some real-life shots from Elizabethtown, Lexington and Paris Kentucky, and Lynchburg, Virginia:

Bluegrass Road !!! I like it 



Nice collection you go going.... again !!!     

[Simcoug]

Interesting with the dual front doors... I didn't know they did the duplex thing back in the 1860s.  I love the unique design on both of those houses... they will both blend in and add some character at the same time.   

[mattb325]

The duplexes are lovely -something we still don't have enough of in game 

[Shark7]

Liking the Appalachia set since those houses would look right at home where I live.  Those smaller, more traditional houses are plentiful out here.

The rusty tin roofs are a nice touch too.  These houses don't all look new, they actually look like they've been there a while.

Thanks Vester, Simcoug, mattb325 and Shark7

Interesting with the dual front doors... I didn't know they did the duplex thing back in the 1860s.

Side-by-side duplexes were pretty common back then in mill towns (especially in the Northeast).  Stacked duplexes (one unit on top of another) seem to have been pretty common in the larger cities.  Those sometimes only had one entry door, so it's harder to tell at first glance if they're duplexes or big single-family houses.  There were also front-to-back duplexes (one unit in front of the other), but those may not have become popular until later.


Here is a R$$$ mansion, for the Appalachia set, based on the Bodley-Bullock House in Lexington, Kentucky:




The real-life Bodley-Bullock House, in Lexington Kentucky (built in 1814), and another, somewhat similar house across the street:

Amazing BATs! I wonder when you will be releasing them? I can imagine there must be a whole ton of lotting work to do giving the number of BATs you have created.

[Simmer2]

Beautiful 

[mattb325]

Love it! There aren't many good quality southern-style colonnaded houses available 

[dyoungyn]

Gorgeous!!!!

[Swordmaster]

Hey Brian, fantastic to see you're still at it. It's amazing to see how prolific you've been over the past three years. The selection of styles and cities you took inspiration from are top notch; I've also enjoyed the RL pictures that came along. 30+ pages of awesomeness. . .


Cheers
Willy

[Simcoug]

Ah yes, my future summer cabin.  Beautiful variations as always. 

[reddonquixote]

More amazing creations. 

I need to ask, do you have secret access to a lotting & modding factory and if so can I borrow it please? 

[romualdillo]

Oh God!! I think I need some recovery. Too many awesome buildings for today. Southern styled houses are among my favourites and those are great. And the duplexes, well... You already know I admire everyhing you do!

[metarvo]

Keep up the good work, C.P.!  I like the mix of brick and frame here, and I'm particularly drawn to the red brick duplex with the green shutters.  It has such a charming feel to me. 

[M4346]

Gorgeous! As usual! I can't wait to see these in my towns! Your work has completely redefined the look and feel of my regions. Thank you!!
