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.
Paintings Cloned
- Suspense
- Lady on Red
- Red vs. Blue
- Sim City at Night
- Rolling Hills
- In the Beginning
- Spherical Splendor
Polygon Counts:
Canvas - 12
Simple Frame - 48
Simple Frame Oval - 256
Traditional Frame - 200
Traditional Frame Oval 500
Additional Credits:
Babolat for The Keys neighborhood pictures.
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.
