Game of Thrones - Winterfell Part 2

Originally my plan was to break this set up into a bunch of smaller sets and share one a day....but it seems as I build my own Winterfell I need to make or recolor more and more stuff to suit the look I'm going for - and pretty soon I'm going to be overwhelmed with things I hadn't yet shared. So instead I just broke it up into several downloads but all part of one set. (note: all download links are listed at the bottom of this page)

I started with some exterior walls, I have lots of FANTASTIC medieval stone walls & floors from other AMAZING creators but they didn't fully matching what I was trying to achieve. So I pulled out of my flash drive some old textures I was planning to use for Sims 1 projects (and never got around to :( ) and after playing around with tinting in PSP I got what I was looking for.

After playing around with it in PSP I ended up with 2 different colors for the same stone pattern. I've included both in the file, but the one I like best for Winterfell is the one labeled "darker" - which actually has a more grayish appearance while the other one has a more brownish appearance. I've also made a "top" for both exterior walls which has a dark stone crown molding. I don't know about you guys, but I always feel like crown molding makes it feel more complete.

Also included is matching stone floors & a stone ground cover (terrain).

Also I made an alternate "old stone wall" which I came out much different than my intention, but it could work for some of the older buildings on Winterfell grounds.

And an old wooden wall for the kitchen. Although the actual kitchen walls in Winterfell are probably a stone wall, I liked the way this one looked & decided it would work for my Sims version of it - especially since it is a fair match to Sims Caravan's Medieval Kitchen set which I am using for it. (note: other objects shown in picture not included).

I never can seem to have enough staircases in my game. Before stumbling up The Medieval Smithy, Imagination Figments and some other wonderful Medieval Sims 2 sites I decided to try giving a go at retexturing a Maxis Staircase to have a medieval feel too it. At first I really didn't like how this one came out, but a couple of days ago I realized "it works" lol.

Of course though you need a good matching set of modular stairs as well, and thanks to Numenor at Mod The Sims, that was made possible. I recolored his Recolourable Wooden Modular Stairs, in both the brownish stone and the darker grayish stone to make the Winterfell exterior walls & floors. Before trying to use my recolors in your game though, don't forget to hop over to Numenor's page and download his mesh.

When using the stairs, you should know that you will not find the recolors in the game catalog, what you need to do is place Numenor's wooden stairs, and then click the design tool for each step, when you do this, a little menu will pop up showing you all the recolors of this particular stair case. Choose the one you want and move on to the next step. If you plan to place a railing, do so BEFORE using the designer tool to change the color of the steps, because if you do it after, the steps will revert to the mesh color.

I wasn't quite done though with stairs, I remember from the Sims 1 I had these beautiful stone curved stairs in my game, which I think came with the Makin Magick Expansion pack that were perfect for Medieval type of lots. SimArchitect made a beautiful set of curved stairs very similar in style of the Makin Magic ones. I recolored them with my own stone texture & very happy with the results. Don't forget to grab his mesh or you may find my recolors won't appear in your game.

I decided to give another go at recoloring Olemantiker's Fairybulosa 2 Story/4tile window. This time the frame came out the shade of gray I was hoping for, my stained glass though, thats another story - it appears GREEN in the game, but I'm really not complaining lol. With the recolor I done a few days ago, the clear glass works well too.

Not quite sure if these fences are perfect for Winterfell, but I like them anyway. They are grayish recolor's of Marina's Medieval Gothic Fences. You will need her meshes for them to work in your game.

And while I'm still on the subject of Marina, I made one more Stark banner using her Medieval Standard Banner Mesh. So while your getting her fence meshes, go back a few pages and grab her Medieval Standard Banner Mesh too :)

The final part of this set is 2 Stark "portraits". One of Catelyn and one of Ned. These portraits are recolors of the Maxis "In The Park" painting. The only thing you'll need for this to work in your game is Open For Business :)
