Dark or Not, It's a Piece of Paradise

Dark Paradise has great prefabs for that special build


Back on the trail of great sims, I couldn't help but notice the great build that a neighbor had put up in my home in Winterfell. A quick peek beyond the wonderfully intricate textured facade took me to Darkling Tempura and Desari Deledda, who is putting together some furniture and artworks worthy of notice.

As you know, a shopkeeper who sets their creations into a lovely themed surrounding gains quick access to my paypal account. Desari and Darkling have made this happen at Dark Paradise. You can stroll along a lovely water feature, gaze at the intricate scrollwork on the columns, or be impressed by the huge Starax Statosky sculpture dominating the pool.


The furniture is well constructed, perfectly textured, and the poses built in worked fine for my friend and I. This is not always assured, since out heights differ greatly, so worthy of mention.



In addition, the prefab houses were marvelous, showing clean design and masterful texture work. As I said, any house that can capture my attention from a distance of 300m is worthy of my notice.


One critique, in investigating the story and review I came across the Dark Paradise website http://www.darkparadise.us which was rather dated in its information. More current info might have been nice, but may be available through regular client log in.

Regardless, Dark Paradise is well worth a visit.

Update: Satir Textures

Pardon our Satir-ical take on this fine textures store in the retro-post I had to make (dated 8-5-2000). Hopefully these snapshots should help cleanse the visual palette and show you what the store has to offer:

Architectural magnificence: Satir's specialty.

Superb texture quality for the aspiring builder.

Ideal surfaces for covering castle walls.

Around 250 well-done textures in all await your appraising eye at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Yass/14/243/302. Satir's Textures is conveniently located in JC's Cove. Visit the Cove for pottery, particles, textures, fine buildings, aviation gear, superhero avatars, and a copy of the SecondLife Merchant Times!
