Desolate look

Here is a nice sim project I wanted to share with you. I found it while reading this post in SLupergirls. Met one of the sim owners when I went there to look around. I'm not really much of a reporter but got some of the scoop while talking to her. :)

The Wastelands - The North Yard (SLurl) has a group of friends designing and maintaining a sim that has a dark, desolate look to it. It offers it's visitors a challenge. Look around, see if you can find some gifts and interesting items to buy? Rugged to the point of being a perfect set for a horror movie, the sim just begs to be explored. The soundscape is an excellent mix of ambient noises and what ever is going on at the neighbor sims movie screen.

The North Yard Shop (SLurl) is pretty close to the landing area. Products on sale are hidden a bit, to work with the look of the sim, so keep an eye out for things like a sculpted Fire pile, the I-beams, and 1-prim Junk walls. The shop also has a jewellery gatcha machine. The owner, Vikki Placebo, is going to have more items on sale when she is done with the designing. She has a store at the Marketplace, if that's what you prefer.

I found a freebie box at a close by stranded house. I recommend you donate a bit to the project, there's a collection plate at the church ruin a short walk away.

The neighboring sim has the Burnt Oak drive-in (SLurl). The friendly owner also put a screen towards the Wasteland sim, so they could have a secondary viewing spot if movie night got too busy. The bootleg feel of the alternative watching spot fits the project perfectly.
