Maleficent's Houses

I am trying so hard to get all of the Disney's spread out throughout all of the Sim worlds so that we get to see more and more of it instead of just Willow Creek. So far we have Adam in Windenburg and if we count Aubrey as part of the main story she is in Del Sol Valley and that's about it. I have been wanting to move Maleficent to Glimmerbrook since before we even had a Maleficent but I don't like using cheats for everything, the most used cheats I use is bb.moveobjects when I'm building and Make Sim Happy so that their needs fill and I only do that when I'm trying to get a lot of stuff done as fast as possible versus playing for fun which is the main reason why I haven't moved her there yet. I also have been playing with the idea of whether or not Morgyn was going to be in the picture. In my game, they are polar opposites outside of being spellcasters. In their day to day lives, Morgyn is a conservationist, he's a really green sim who is very family-oriented. Maleficent on the other hand she very family-oriented too but she's more on the villain side. She protects her family no matter the costs and we will be seeing an example of that really, really soon. She's even in the criminal career, so I feel like they are polar opposites outside of their spellcasting and family-oriented sides. So I really didn't know if I would have her move with Morgyn, get married, or even have a kid but we now have Judith! So I kind of really rethought everything I had planned for Maleficent when she ended up pregnant, thanks to risky woohoos. I don't know what is going to happen between Maleficent and Morgyn but they are very happy playing family at the moment so I think he is going to move to Glimmerbrook with her and I have been working on building her house and tying in his interests as well. Which is why we have this post here today! 

I actually built this house a while ago but like I said everything for Maleficent was up in the air and I was in a building mood so I thought I could save it to my gallery and then work on Kate Emerald's tricky shell challenge and if I liked it more than I can keep it. However, this is the Sims and things don't always go how you plan them too. Even though I built the house forever ago I never completed the inside completely so whenever inspiration hit I could go work on it which is what I was trying to do one day and my save was gone! I couldn't find it anywhere and I was so heartbroken since I spent so long on it and this was already my second attempt and trying to build a Maleficent worthy house. So about an hour later I decided that I was going to try rebuilding this house, the second time and third time building her house overall. So let's look at the first house that I tried building for her. This was in Willow Creek, I thought about her running away to this small house when she found out she was pregnant to help her figure out what to do but I really hated how it turned out. I think it was actually another shell challenge that I was playing with. So it is actually still standing today, apparently, even townie sims think its an awful build because no one will move into it! 

My second build which I really loved was actually in Glimmerbrook this time and the only thing I didn't really like was how the outside turned out. I suck at landscaping and always feel like it doesn't end up looking good. My second issue was that I had a lot of wide spaces, which you can see in my Disney house we end up having a lot of wide empty spaces and I never know what to do with them and this house too many which is another reason I wasn't ready for her to move. I just didn't know how to fill up these spaces but the build overall I loved and was having a lot of fun with. So this is how that one turned out, well as much pictures of it I had. I actually got the inspiration for this off of Pinterest but I don't have the original picture I used anymore. I basically just looked up creepy old houses and went from there. I don't have any pictures of the inside but there were some progress pictures from the outside here. 

See the landscaping was trash! I just don't like how it looks and feel like it's missing something.

The back overall is pretty plain but it worked. I also usually hate how my windows end up looking at the game too.

Okay so overall this wasn't a terrible build. It had like 4 bedrooms and was a spellcaster paradise. I know this isn't as creepy as it should be for Maleficent but I think that is going to happen slowly over time after she has some heartbreak happen. I feel that adds depth to her and will be really cool if that happens. Everything I had planned for her has really changed a lot since I got so attached to Morgyn and we are just playing it by ear right now. I have written up the goals for Judith and what she is going to have to do. I don't remember if I added that to her introduction post so I'm thinking about doing a short post for that. Even though I loved how this house turned out I don't think it represented Maleficent the best at least from the outside. The inside was amazing! Now my new build for her actually turned out so much better! I think it looks more funky since it has a lot more shape to it I don't think there is a straight wall on the outside of the house. There is just so much going on it. Overall the house has the same shape but has more depth to it. Here are some pictures I took with my phone while I worked on it so they aren't the best quality. Then there are some better pictures of it all at the end. 

It is still a work in progress overall. I want to do more with the landscape it's pretty bare and there are a couple blank spaces I would love to fill up with something. The one on the main floor I would love to put a fountain or something but I haven't figured out the best way to build that yet. I just want some kind of feature there but we will see what ends up being there. I do want it to still be visible from the front yard to the back like it kind of is now. But overall this is her big house in the woods feel and I love how it turned out, especially since I only have a little bit left for on it but could live with it how it is regardless of the blank spaces. As Judith gets older I'm going to add more stuff for her and should have more family pictures to add to the house. So I'm used to it getting cluttered over time. This one has a basement and the first one didn't. I did some build options that I've never done before and got a little more detailed here and there with it. Is it perfect? Probably not but it for Maleficent. I'm trying to get better with my builds and not to depend on premade rooms or gallery houses. I always feel weird showing off other creator's work because I never know how they would feel about it so when I use other creator's work I always make sure to credit them or even leave links for you to look at it if you want to see more of their creations. Roofing and landscaping are always going to be my downfall but I'm slowly getting better with them. We have one more build to look at in the next post or two and then that might be it for building for a little while. 

Maleficent is still currently working on getting enough money to buy it. I see her doing her criminal career to get money of course but also she has taken up using her spellcasting for more mischief use such as stealing items and copying them to sell these items for extra money. I don't want her to steal from her family like Adam did. That is something she would never do because she is fiercely protective of her family. Our next post is also going to be about Maleficent and Morgyn so we will see them again really soon and we can talk about all of this a little more! 

I mentioned that I want to eventually have all 4 kids in a different world and my plan is to keep Adam in Windenburg, Maleficent in Glimmerbrook, and Steve I think is going to inherit the house in Willow Creek. But as for Wendy I'm not really conflicted on and kind of want some feedback for her. I kind of want to deviate from the Peter Pan story and have Wendy end up with Peter. Call me crazy but I always loved them together and always rooted for them to stay together even as a child. If I do that then she will obviously end up in Sulani which is Neverland. One problem with that is that she will never grow up since that is what is supposed to happen in Neverland. I plan on deviating from that for her to age up into a teen or be a teen when she gets there because I really want her to be able to be jealous of some of the things I have planned. But does this mean she ages up into a young adult there? Or if I want her to be with Peter and have a family will they move into another world together? I just don't know just yet and I would love some feedback on all of the above scenarios. As always I'll have this posted on Instagram when I get a little closer for this to happen so that feedback is a little easier to get.
