Look at what I made and om nom nom it! (Post your creations pt. 2)

I really like the seat part, with the wide band and thin metal seat.  But the backs and sides look they are defying gravity to me.  Realistically they wouldn't hold weight.  The design of it though is really nice. 

The table however, looks really good and sturdy. 

That seat part?  Take that and scale it to a bedframe and throw a mattress on it.  Then add cables at an angle to make it look like an attached bunk.  And clone Inge's wall bunk beds.    That would be cool.

It's all planes - so the base just looks sturdy - but you're the same as me - the backs look flimsy.

Its almost a shame you are thinking of scrapping the set - but I can understand not wanting to go back in and attempt to give it more substance.  It does look too flimsy to be real, but the design is absolutely lovely.

Nah - I'll just modify the mesh and do something else with it. Just at the moment, my passion is for another set I'm working on.

Cala, I like the idea, but it just doesn't look right to me. To echo what everyone has already said, it looks to flimsy and of course as you know flat. I like how the backs are butterflies, so maybe if you move the butterfly up and put normal legs on the bench/chair it might look a tad sturdier. Maybe if you try to make a version in wood it might help as well. Like having the backs, legs, and arm rests in the iron, and then the seating part like a normal bench. And one last thing, if you made it so the butterfly and seat could be recolored separately I'm sure lots of lovely colorful recolors would come of it as well.

I do like the table. Maybe you could upload that?

I think that's a good idea - I was stupidly trying to make it more compatible for recolouring with different patterns, and fucked it completely.  I'll put on a solid base, and some armrests, and make the back a flat butterfly I think - maybe slightly curved.

No problem. But I'm going to fix the slight sinking thing going on with those legs - they dip slightly into the ground. Due to the blackness of the mesh you can't see it well.

I also really like the table, while thinking the seating looks a bit too flimsy.

The table does look like one of those wrought-iron bistro tables.  If you come back to the seating later, it'd also be cool to see what it would look like if you could add a glass tabletop to that table.

Don't you just love it when things go wrong?  I can't tell you how many bodyshop projects I have going of experiments I have given up on due to failure.

Ooohh I didn't think about that. That is a good idea. Maybe even a stained glass version too. Or Maybe do a round glass but with a burned in picture of a butterfly to fit in with the theme.

On top of the flower pattern there?

[Quinctia]

Yeah, I was thinking of the sort of stippled glass that's common in outdoor sets.  It already looks like there's a lip meshed on the edge of the tabletop for it to fit within.

Of course, I'm not a mesher, and I've seen people have issues doing glass in the past, so I don't know how hard that is.

No that's easy - I just uploaded a new outdoor set with a glass tabletop. I like that idea - thank you. 

[pinkyfriend]

I love the seat part. Would def dl if the backs were a little thicker looking!

[Missbonbon]

Ok so I have the sim made that I think I want to use. I need to see how everyone does their designs to see if she will fit in. She's very goofy, and hopefully sunday I will get some screenshots up. If there is anything in particular someone wants in a sim let me know before I finalize her.

A few pages or so back, I posted pics of this house and was asked when it would be available. If you want it, it's now available here: http://www.sublimesims.net/
