I had a great time yesterday getting a little better acquainted with Lot Adjuster and making some row style shop fronts for the shopping district subhood, Maple Mills! I had been feeling inspired to decorate the hood recently after downloading a bunch more hood deco, and then got the itch for building too.
Operative word being shop fronts because all of these are shells, which is why I was able to do so many! I still have my lot imposters turned down pretty low, Linux performs great but I'm not getting too cheeky. So tried to get pictures that give the impression of the whole block of lots as one kind of unit.
These are all going to be available for my Sims to purchase as owned businesses, except for the bistro on the far left which will be a community lot bistro. Honestly, I swear that the TS4 team used the same reference image as I did when they made that Cozy Bistro kit because it was so identical, I just had to replicate it.
Most of them I had a direct reference image I was working off of, which I'll link here just cause I find that kind of thing very interesting to see myself.
Reference 1, reference 2, reference 3 (I had started lot 4 a while ago and if I had a reference image I since lost track of it, so I just improvised a lot on that one, it was still in very early stages when I resumed it yesterday)
