I see, in the real world, vases converted into lamps with regularity. They’re solid, they’re aesthetically pleasing, and with the right knowhow, it’s a nice little recycling hobby. With that in mind, I picked a random pack, and set about converting!
Sadly, the Mini-Zen Planter is having some issues as I want to get a little odd with it, but the Beguiling Bamboo Divider, Cheery Cherry Vase, Wheatless-Wheat Grass Planter, and Budding Calm vases have all been converted (I wasn’t sure what to do with the potted bamboo, honestly, or I’d have put that in too). I’m especially pleased with how the divider came out, a real modern lighting treat that I could see in a fine restaurant or museum entryway. This has been a great experiment into shaders and tuning, and I’m very pleased with the results.
Most of the meshes come straight from TS4, though the flower on the Cheery Cherry and the lampshade on the Budding Calm (and the lightbulb on both) come from TS2, with the Budding Calm lampshade actually being a plant pot.
All have the Spa Day colors–those of the base item–and where aesthetically pleasing, tried to keep the flower/stem colors relevant.
And yes, Chloro-MT is a bit of wordplay on the fact that I’m “emptying” the chlorophyll. (Published on: 2023-04-04 12:00:00)
