Old Friends.(Dollarbies)

I promise I will stop shopping on the Marketplace but while I was there I came across some old buildings which I know I have somewhere buried deep into my invent and because they still have such a wow factor and I do know some of you lot do like a good background I thought I’d do an easy Sunday morning post.

All pictures were taken just using my sim setting so you can see the atmospheric lighting built into the build.

You can see by the window frame to the left that there is a lot of that painted on look going on.

But seriously look at how good that texturing is especially when I know that most if not all of these builds are 9 years old!

I’ve taken pictures of random builds so there is a warehouse, toilet, apartment block etc.  I always thought it would be an amazing and a pretty unique way to live in SL by rezzing one of the apartment blocks in the middle of a desolate plot and just decorating one or two of the rooms to live in leaving the rest empty.

Each build does come decorated outside, this is the warehouse, and now the BUT…primmy but for those of us who want interesting backgrounds OR think of this, yes love it or hate it Valentines is creeping up on us but if you do Valentine in SL rezz one of these and then create a little oasis of romance and snuggling in the middle of one of these builds.  The cold and bare walls will make your little scene just that little bit more special.

Broken Vows.(Dollarbies).

They tempt you with the freebies/dollarbies/gifties etc and then sucker you into spending Lindens when you were going to stick to your guns and not spend any more.

OK, this has to be bought from the Maya’s Architecture Marketplace shop only.

This is all for a single Linden and I have edited the set up a little bit.  You get the lounger, table with decor, lamp, trees, bright autumnal leaves  and the lantern and they all come on a square but since they’re all unlinkable and copyable I took away the bit they were stood on, put the table closer to the lounger and copied a couple of the tree’s/leaves to make a nice setting.  Some really nice poses in this both single and couples(I think there are couples), I loved the simple sitting pose with the tea-sipping or book reading, very nicely done.

This is a close up of the trees because they’re really, really good and only 2 prims each.  You do know that if you want a shrub then you can just lower a suitable tree so the trunk is under the ground and you have the shrubbery just showing?  I’ve done this many a time before when a tree has been stunning but I wanted a shrub.  There are 5 Dollarbies waiting for you in total.

Be WARNED, esp if like me your a build hoarder ALL of the builds in the Maya’s shop/marketplace shop are 50 bloddy Lindens!!!  ARGH!  Before I started to click away I checked my invent because I do remember this shop from a long time ago and yes I already have a lot of them in my invent but that didn’t stop me buying more!!!  Lots of the houses come fully furnished some with both furnished and unfurnished options, you can buy streets and cottages complete with gardens so many styles and options and again only 50Lds!

I had to log off last night and so I didn’t get a chance to rezz the other Dollarbies I picked up which is a pouf, a small house and what looks like it could be an adorable little pier so I’m looking forward to logging in and checking those out and I will be honest and once I’ve checked out what I already have I will be going back for more.  BTW in case, you’re wondering because there are no demo’s for you to see I used my Nams setting but from memory, the quality of the texturing may not be Apple Fall standards but I’ve paid more for much less quality!

PS If you like the Twin Peaks TV series, the original one, there is a couple of buildings from the shop PLUS don’t be fooled by the gifts in-world as they just send you the Marketplace link.
