Ancient Sim Egypt: WIP

This is just to confirm that I am (FINALLY) getting back to my Egyptian legacy. I have to rebuild (I don't dare put that OLD neighborhood into my game for fear of corruption because I have UC and a completely different downloads folder now), so it's giving me the opportunity to build the neighborhood exactly how I want it before importing the Sims. After scouring around for a good neighborhood terrain to use, which I altered a little bit, I have started the process of creating a town/city/thing...

I'm starting off with the pharaoh's palace complex. It will consist of several lots, but the first step was to create the "wall" that will encompass them. (that arrow on the palace lot was to remind me which direction the shadow is supposed to fall, but at some point I gave up on trying to keep all the lots in shadow synch)

Just outside of the palace gate is a festival square. I imagined this to also be where the seasonal market is set up. But I'm not really happy with it and I'll probably redo this at some point. After mucking with that for a whole day...

I started on the actual palace facade. I've got a lot to do! At the moment I need to make a two story mural for the front, then figure out how I'm going to fill up a 5x5 lot with a single family home. D:
There's going to be a lot of recoloring of objects as I go along. Not everything is how it will ultimately appear. But just getting the bones in place is a big step! (plus I love building crap)
