Extreme Sim Makeover: Round 2

Post by Gryffindork »

Welcome to the second round of...

:melting: Extreme Sim Makeover :flirt:

***NOTE: This event will feature standalone rounds rather than a cumulative format - that means you are free to participate even if you did not take part in the last round!***

The contest formerly known as “Fix That Ugly” is back with a brand new coat of paint. This game we play is a beautiful thing, but lord knows it’s also a treasure trove of eyesores: the Komeis, the Sandy Brutys, the Vidcund Curiouses of the world. Your mission is to select a particularly unfortunate specimen and work your magic until they’re red-carpet ready! Or, well, at least ready to walk down the street.

Each round will feature a different challenge, theme, or constraint on the kind of subject you can use. Some rounds will involve home makeovers, so all you Build Mode wizards, look out for those!

[hr]
Round 2: :sun: Curb Appeal :sun:

This round is all about outer beauty! Select a residential lot that looks particularly ghastly from the outside - you know, the kind that your sims drive by and think "wow, I'm glad I don't live there."
Without changing anything on the inside, your task is to give the home a facelift and turn it into the envy of the town. After all, you'll feel so much better about living in a dump just knowing that you've fooled your neighbours!

Requirements:
At least 1 pre-renovation picture
At least 3 pictures of the finished exterior

Post your entry below, and don’t be afraid to get creative with your pictures!

[hr]
Rules
DO use pre-made lots only from TS2, TS3, TS4, and any of their expansion neighbourhoods/Store worlds.
DO alter wall and roof patterns, landscaping including terrain elevation, plants, outdoor furniture, doors and windows, porches/verandahs, and anything else that does not affect the structure of the home itself.
DO feel free to use CC and minimal photo editing.
DO NOT use player-built lots (unless otherwise specified by the round rules).
DO NOT alter the interior of the home.
DO NOT alter the fundamental structure of the home beyond reasonable recognition (no extensions, garages, or changes to roof pitch/shape - although you may change the roof pattern). Remember, you're only giving it a facelift!

Only one entry per person per round, please!

[hr]
Deadline: May 31

Judging:
Voting will last for five days after the deadline.

Winner's Spoils:
- 20 house points (in addition to the 30 you earned for participating)
- a medal from the Winner's Choice category
- 30 more points for receiving that medal :O
- ETERNAL GLORY!!!

Chat thread can be found here!
[hr]
Note: Rounds are independent of one another, much like the Let's Build It Event. There is no need to sign up, just participate when it suits you!

Round 2: Curb Appeal
Subject : Loft Aloft (Twinbrook)
Spoiler:
With the resurgence of life and beauty to our community, we at the Twinbrook Aesthetic Council would like to give those who do not have the means to participate otherwise, the chance to make their homes as lovely as those with money. Thus we are starting the 'Swamp Rejuvenation' project. In return for a lovelier town, we are providing a stipend to our citizens in order to beautify the outsides of their homes.

As proof of concept, we provided the first stipend to the residents of the "charmingly" named 'Loft Aloft'.
Image
Spoiler:
After the renovations, we received a letter brimming with joy and pictures of their lovely home!
