My build is coming along. I've got the external walls covered nicely.

Front:


Before:


Wanted to add some brick wall covering in the kitchen and maybe stone on the back wall. The colors I was hoping to use, basically shades of what's on the external walls and windows seem to be too dark, even with all the lights I've added to try to see what I like. So I've left the walls basic for now.

In Progress:


I'm feeling I want to build the basic house similar to what's pictured on the floorplan site, but then do a MrsFlynn version of it. lol  Thinking pop-outs on the roof to hopefully maybe make a half-ish floor with ladder up to it. :)

What I was able to come up with for a kitchen and living space accent walls wasn't what I originally intended, but it looks pretty good and that's what counts. I also did a wood accent wall in the bedroom.

Here's a few screenshots:

Front:


Inside:


What it could look like with some basic furnishings:


Saved the unfinished build, of course. lol :)

I really like house the house turned out, but I feel I could do more with it.

Rebuilding the house seemed like a breeze. lol I took only a couple of (during shots)



Here's the results!! I pretty impressed with how it turned out. Like I was hoping it would!!







The rebuild was placed on a 30x30 lot so I could build the side deck. It's a 3+Bds\2Ba house. Not so tiny now. lol

I have downloaded the floorplan for the house I want to do and I might see if I'm up to doing something with it tomorrow. I have another appointment today and that might be enough for me to handle for one day.

This is my choice.

Yay!! Great Choice!! :)

I wanted to refresh my memory on which house that was, so I added a little note to yours. lol

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

Making some progress finally. It's pretty challenging for me. I can't believe how much I've forgotten.
For those who might be unaware, I had a stroke in Feb so this is my first attempt to get  back into building.

My game shut down on me several times when I tried  to place a wall on the main level. I didn't realize I had auto-roof on and I was trying to place a wall on the roof. Game didn't like that. :D

I've been messing around with this roof off and on all day. I think this is as good as it's going to get.
