Picked Upload!
This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
When I started this project nearly a month ago I did not realize how large it really was or would become. This is a mix-n-match artwork mesh set that includes 24 canvas meshes, 24 simple frames, and 24 traditional frames. All using the repository technique with just 5 texture files for the art and 1 texture file for each of the frame sets. There are UVMaps included for anyone who would like to recolor. There is also 2 collection files, one for Residential and one for Community.

Notes: All frames and canvas are adjustable with the AL and M&G cheat, so they move up/down/left/right. All are base game, if for some reason one does not work please let me know.
The canvas all have the proper footprint based on tile size. The frames all have 1-tile footprints, I simple did not want to have that many GUID's for 48 frames.
Price range for art is $75-$350, and each canvas is +/- $25 from the paintings they were cloned from, so any room environment the originals had will apply to these. The frames however were cloned from the Collection paintings ($200) and have a price range of $25-$50.

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
