Midnight at the Shuttlebay- Part 1

Midnight-Shuttle-Bay-Tittle-Card

Happy Friday, everybody.

Overview

The Midnight overproject represents a return to my roots: sci-fi stuff. My original vision was much like Modular Furniture Series 4. The difference is that whereas MFS4 was utopian and clean-ish, Midnight is more gritty, for creating sinister, dystopian sets. The objects are made from scratch by me, and thoroughly tested.

This is a small set (intended to be part of a larger set) of shuttle storytelling props, with their respective poses and overlays.

The file includes:

Midnight at the Shuttlebay- Part 1:  Six shuttle objects, a posebox, and a collection file

Credits:

First and foremost, to Coni, for alpha testing and troubleshooting. I’m simply too busy creating to troubleshoot every issue myself, and Coni was an immense help in every aspect of this project, from conception to release.

Special thanks to my good friend LadyAquanine, whose encyclopedic knowledge of Sims 2 CC and well-organized boards helped me put together the undersea set for the photo shoot.
