Fun Fact about myself – I am a graphic designer and I own a shop called Sweet Shop Design (https://www.etsy.com/shop/SweetShopDesign) on Etsy.

I found the sims by coincidence as I was on search for new PC game. Back in 2007 I bought a lot of PC games and I always finished a game around one week. It made me wonder if there is a game out there and no ending to it. Long story short I found the Sims 2 game but I didn’t know anything about base game or expansion packs.

Anyway, the first sims game I bought was The Sims 2 Teen Style Stuff Pack and of course I couldn’t install it on my computer cause I didn’t have the base game yet. So the next day I bought The Sims 2 base game from the same store and I also ended up with another 2 expansions packs. But I didn’t regret spending the money because I instantly fell in love with the game and I really enjoyed it to the fullest.

Many people in sims community know I create custom content specially clutter. I think clutter gives the rooms some character and makes them feel lived-in. It makes me happy when people like what I made and they use it with their creations. I always reblog and spread it on my tumblr http://onebillionpixels.tumblr.com.

I started creating custom content back in 2009 when The Sims 3 just came out. At first I only created custom sims and uploaded them to ModTheSims. Then I learned how to recolor CAS parts and buy mode items. But I wasn’t happy with just recoloring so I decided to learn 3D meshing in 2011. I had zero idea of how to use 3D program so I searched for tutorials and I learned it by trial and error. It took me almost 6 month to learn and finally create a decent mesh.

My very first custom content I created with new mesh is Danbo http://one-billion-pixels.blogspot.com/2011/10/danbo.html. I first saw it when I was browsing images on google back in 2011. It was a love at the first sight and I made up my mind to create its 3D version. I was very happy when I made it. Since then I created more than 85 new meshes and share them with the community on my blog One Billion Pixels http://one-billion-pixels.blogspot.com.
