Building an Island House in Tiny Town Challenge! - Part 21

[@skyechimes658]

The patio heater from dine out does work as an outdoor heater and would probably fit the living room better

[@leahtar]

I was coming here to say the same thing. Great minds...

[@SheaTheSarcastic]

Same! I love those outdoor heaters.

[@thatshelbylife]

I think Kristoff needs to paint a picture of Judith to put next to Rahul and Kyra! ❤

[@Rocannee]

and patchy!

[@jadedjhypsi]

I was thinking the same thing ;P

[@thatshelbylife]

@@Rocannee I think he tried to paint a portrait of patchy and it didn’t work!

[@annoar9776]

Didn't Ruben also had a gf? or someone else? :D

[@annoar9776]

​@@thatshelbylife I think he wanted to invite him to the banquet, but it didn't work

[@kristaceresa4699]

Please please please give Judith an island makeover! Long hair down, flowy sundresses, sandals, the whole island vibe!

[@elizabethcanelho9822]

I was coming to the comments to say exactly this!!!

[@susu_5588]

Oh, she definitely needs a makeover!

[@labibaminam4851]

Yess

[@AriaLouisa]

Or have Deli do it!

[@Fayolah]

It was the island vibes that attracted her! Judith was secretly a Child of the Islands and found her Soulmate in Sunny. Now she can be her true self

[@presakakeya]

This house needs some Judy stuff in it! Awards, a signed autograph of her, some just expensive stuff. Maybe a walk in closet. Make her feel at home!!

[@codynorris6414]

Don't forget you were going to put water under the glass panels! I love island style builds and this is incredible 😍

[@Pievineju1993]

Is it possible to add fish? Maybe taking the aquarium object and making it really tiny? But leaving only the fish animations

[@junerussell6972]

I agree! They need to be able to see water through the glass panels. I was disappointed to see only sand.

[@marlabrowne6785]

And the debug corals too!

[@junerussell6972]

@@marlabrowne6785 Oh, yes! Those would be lovely!

[@Code-Redd]

there should be some plants and stuff peaking out from under the deck as well, it would be so pretty like a secret little fairy sized oasis

[@BexTheBoo388]

Maybe Sonny and Judith would have a big destination wedding in Sulani

[@heather_bee]

Yes! ❤ Judith might want a beautiful island honeymoon as well!

[@BobakheMbekeni]

Yesssss!!!! Hope he sees this

[@astrumperemor]

the vault area should be like an 'underwater' grotto, similar to the mermaid room from the every occult challenge 😍

[@lilmissmonsterrr]

Yesss! Maybe with a fish tank in the wall!

[@MelanieSullivan]

I love that idea!

[@makenzieledford]

THIS!!!

[@TigerMa14]

Sonny and Judith should have a baby and that baby can marry into the Bigwallet family.

[@hfjireh]

omg yes that mermaid grotto was sooo good

[@AKQTPI]

If its possible, Sunny needs a pool floaty in the water. It would be like floating in a lazy river, nice and calm.

[@myriahalexie1637]

Yes!

[@annoar9776]

Yes!

[@selkiefluff]

Also, the whole time I was screaming at James to use those heating lamps from Dine Out. They actually save Sims from freezing in cold weather.

[@MelanieSullivan]

James - Can you add some water and maybe even some fish under the glass flooring in the living area? It would look so cool to see the fish underneath! 🐠🐡🐟🌊

[@ellennathalia898]

Judy needs a island cas transformation!!! ❤❤❤

[@rebelkallus]

omg yesss

[@burpingcricket]

Came here to write this!

[@cursedCat18]

Maybe deli could even do it like he did on a really old let’s play!

[@everybodyhatesmarcel]

totally, hope hell see that 🙏

[@emb378]

that piano has a blue swatch with fish on it! it’s perfect for Sonny!

[@Sahiko]

This island build is so island, it's honestly perfect. Since it's in Henford, though, maybe you could add an outdoorsy fireplace of some kind in the living room? Purely for the warmth and maybe some cozy vibes 😊

[@kebe88]

Yes, exactly what I was coming to say. Haha maybe one of the outdoor fireplaces?

[@CrazyForFrogs]

My thoughts too! Like maybe a fire pit on the deck with a couple seats and an acoustic guitar

[@annoar9776]

or the dine out heaters

[@shellby1994]

i think you/deli should give Judith an makeover like she’s retired to the island so like classy island look

[@amanib2733]

Thank you for this great episode! But poor Judith, she doesn't even like the island style decoration (she had a tense moodlet because of it)! I think she deserves to have at least one space just for her, just like the music studio for Sunny. She should have some fancy star lounge/ home cinema (something like what Semaj has, but FANCIER!) with lots of her pictures and trophees, either next to her vault underground or on top of the music studio.

[@nisangunalcin]

and maybe change her preference!

[@annoar9776]

​@nisangunalcin Yes I wanted to say that so she isn't tense all of the time. she doesn't have to like it, but can be neutral about it.

[@not_katte6954]

For the 3rd ep you should decorate/clutter the house more cuz i think it feels a bit empty. Definitely should rearrange the music room , and decorate the hallway, entryway, and the vault room! Cant wait for another episode of Tiny Town!

[@xtayalex]

James always forgetting build mode stuff doesn't count for rebate day is my favourite 😂

[@ManiKolex]

Really? It always count for me. As long as the object I buy is worth $500, it counts.

[@tracey2156]

Yeah only buy mode stuff counts on rebate day and it has to be items that cost more than 500.

[@embee3156]

@@ManiKolex I think they mean walls and stuff. "Buy mode" items work but "build mode" ones don't.

[@ManiKolex]

@@embee3156oooh ok. Then maybe that’s what they meant

[@nickboon1235]

@@ManiKolexyeah it’s one of those little things the game doesn’t tell you, imho build mode and buy mode are the same thing because the game switches between these “two” and live mode, but somehow clicking on either the build icon or items icon on the bottom left changes your mode🥴😂

[@samanthakennedy7627]

Judith deserves her own room, maybe underneath in the vault? Make it super luxe with marble floors and such. It can be her secret space to go and relax surrounded by all of her possessions.

[@jadedjhypsi]

or as a big closet with all of her costumes from the movies she has done and dresses she has worn to Ceremonies, etc...

[@梨-i5l]

A spa room with a massage table and a hot tub to warm up in!

[@friendlyxfire6783]

id like her to have a luxe basement spa

[@moaturesson6071]

Yes!!! And a vanity

[@samie1726]

Should use her money for her room too.

[@blackberrywinter4020]

you gotta have a pipe organ in the basement! it’s Sonny’s first love! Also love the level of blue! You can still tell it’s a significant color with the dark woods

[@nisangunalcin]

i think in the studio!

[@annoar9776]

Yes!

[@allbowdowntothequeen2859]

This whole time James was talking about heating and he didn't put in a thermostat or a fire prevention system 😂 also I think the bathroom upstairs could use an angled bathtub and big window in front of it!

[@lidial8579]

Maybe make a roof deck on top of the music studio? Or like date dining space, then the weird shape won't matter for roofing and it can be something nice for Judith

[@TheBettispaghetti]

Yes, where they can organize parties for all their superstar friends 😍 And Sonny could DJ!!

[@jennyplunkett6318]

Woohoo blanket for sure!

[@damyenne8739]

I agree that Judith should get a more relaxed, "retired to the island life" makeover, but should also get like a luxurious, extravagant walk-in closet and bathroom with a fancy tub, someplace for her to return to her old lifestyle for a bit... Also would like to see the music room look a little more "recording studio" ish?

[@kayzmavc4596]

The music studio can DEFINITELY get a makeover in the last episode. Make sure to get in some "soundproofing" panels. And if space allows, maybe make it a bit bigger...? Also, a CAS island makeover for Judith seems to be in order. ;P Edit to add: I like the amount of blue in the build. I don't think it needs more blue on the outside.

[@mooglily]

I feel like Judy needs an island make over!! She’s left her city life to become an island babe & I’m here for it. I think finishing touches on the vault & studio are the only build more changes that should be made!

[@xtayalex]

The ladder you are looking for is in the outdoor section of the buy catalogue

[@nisangunalcin]

add it please!

[@ladytrista6110]

Judith needs a portrait. I think a bbq grill would be a nice addition for the deck. You can have an island wedding for Sonny and Judith.

[@annoar9776]

Sunny 😊

[@missbunburyist]

Don't forget the weather machine! It can actually be always sunny for Sunny 😎

[@arinarisovaite5455]

please do another version of tiny town, reallly enjoying your version of it !!! Dony want it to end

[@mroutro7206]

For the final episode I think Judith should have an island makeover and have their wedding in Sulani with the whole Tiny Town there.

[@mluna1]

And Semaj and Nalani!

[@annoar9776]

an* 😊

[@mroutro7206]

@@annoar9776 🙄

[@makenzieledford]

loving this so far!! i think the upstairs bathroom should have the island living bath tub! it’d fit in perfectly there. also a little barbecue next to the outdoor table would be nice!

[@mauratyson9580]

i love how much all the houses encroach on the sidewalks and the community spaces

[@nyxitylee2094]

I'd probably change the moat into being more of a "lake" or have most of the water under the deck area to make it seem a bit more like the Sulani builds that are on the edge of the beach.

[@1kleanne]

Building in the next lets play is going to be bliss after all the apartment building haha. Also the heaters from Dine Out could work in the living area outside

[@klcarty]

It would be nice if the town hall could be shifted forward a bit so it feels less squished behind it. Also we need a section with deeper water for sonny to swim in 🙏

[@lady_bananya]

I think a fire/bbq pit would fit well next to the crossed palms, that's like the first thing Island living reminds me of! Also a little stairs so it could be possible to have a nice walk on the sand, just like Sonny had in his childhood room 😆Also remember you wanted some water under the glass panels, and Judy really needs something for herself in this build, like an island grotto/spa/vault thingy

[@bethbovey7566]

Better put a really good thermostat in there for those lovely snowy days.

[@suan333]

34:00 this is the moment i was waiting while he was building 😂 "Where is he gonna put the instruments???"

[@LucyRedclift]

Beautiful build yet again! Would love to see a full Island makeover for Judith .. maybe she loves blue now as well 🤣🏝️

[@quartlee]

For the outdoor living area, you could try using the dine out space heaters.

[@santosobobon1151]

You need to add Judith Ward, Patchy, and every other partner potrait in Community Center❤

[@seriliaykilel]

This is such a ridiculous concept - I love it. None of those homes make any sense but the commitment is amazing hehehehe

[@Hollowluna]

There’s a toilet, called Atlantis or Poseidon. Anyway, it hooks to the wall, and it has island living swatches. It’s the official toilet for Island Living.

[@EraExplorer-g8q]

have some area on the sand that sonney and judith can get off from the open porch. after all its an island. they should be able to sit/lay on the sand. 🌴

[@Bunch1810]

Are you able to put the pond fish item in the water under the glass floor? Just to give them something to look at through the glass floor?

[@lilmissmonsterrr]

Yes or size down an aquarium really tiny, I think when you do that the fish remain swimming in mid air. IIRC.

[@alkemi5522]

The upright Piano has a blue swatch! And it's aquatic-themed. I think that would be a great fit for the house.

[@annoar9776]

Oh yes it would be!

[@InBloodChains]

Love the build! But think the living room needs more curtains to feel like a room, maybe the nice flowy ones (from Desert Luxe, was it?). And yes, definitely more subtle with the blue is better.

[@leepaulse893]

I love how you and Deli timed both your tiny town series, because you were beginning while Deli was ended. Now your Tiny Town is coming to a close in a couple of episodes and Deli's preparing for her next Tiny Town. Oh, will you be attempting Dr. Gluon's Rotten Berry challenge after your Tiny Town is finished and continue the Renrut name?

[@threeheadedmountaindew]

tbh i think james is busy as is with tiny town and the soon to be starting sandalwood lp

[@leepaulse893]

@@threeheadedmountaindew I forgot about that since Rent to Riches finished. You're right, James deserves a break after this.

[@yuna_suzu1195]

Judith needs an island make over and definitely a place for her stuff that's super luxurious

[@KittyDice]

The open window above the stove is a good idea, actually - you accidentally burn something and you just chuck it out the window and into the water. 😊

[@mistalina13]

I really like the dark wood with the blue inside and as accents. 🏖For decorating Sonny's music room is there anything that looks like it could be album art perhaps? :|a I was gonna say what about a pet but would Sonny and Judith have? Fish maybe?

[@emmab982]

I love that James' tiny town houses are all absolutely *enormous*

[@BattyBigSister]

I'd almost want to swap the blue tree with one of the palms. Having the deck coming around it with all its lanterns would be really nice. I'd also consider some fun activities in the bedroom. Maybe even move the TV in there, so they have something to do when it's freezing cold outside in Henford on Bagley in the middle of winter and yeah as some one said some patio heaters and maybe the outdoor fireplace from Jungle Adventure would probably be lovely. Other than that, looks fantastic as usual.

[@annoar9776]

Yes!

[@NancyTheePaperGirl]

This build has me desperate for an island holiday now! Could we squeeze in a destination wedding to Sulani for Sonny and Judith in their final episode?

[@marissalovesart]

17:18 as someone who has lived in Hawaii and calls Guam home “indoor” living like that is 100% a thing. I was just looking at a house where the living room and kitchen were basically just like this. It was way out of my budget but still nice.

[@annoar9776]

I always think about burglars ... what do you do then in such an open space?

[@marissalovesart]

@@annoar9776 I’m not saying that isn’t something to worry about but I also only lock my doors to prevent my cat from letting himself out.

[@annoar9776]

@@marissalovesart that's probably for the best!

[@berkeleyjane]

I think the color of the house is great, but maybe we could do the lighter wood windows? The ones that match the columns? That would add some depth. It's lookin real good!!!

[@inkbychelb]

You should make that small sandy area into a private beach with a sun bed ! 41:37

[@HopeHendershot-Moskal]

Well, you definitely need to have a wedding for Sonny's finale.

[@krindy]

Sonny (and Judith) are owed more rebate money! The notification at the end mentions they earned an extra 10% back via the thrifty trait (which Judith got when you completed her aspiration midway thru the episode). They should've gotten 10k back!

[@kajsahenningson4204]

I think next episode should focus on Sonny becoming a 5 star celebrity, as well as developing the story between him and Judith. As for the building, I really like the idea that the music studio is a combined acting-and-music-studio. Also Judith should definitely also have a make over, a luxurious underground space for herself and a painting in the town hall! Love this series, thank you James!!

[@BexTheBoo388]

Would love to see Judith get an island makeover!

[@anastasiazamesova5476]

i think you should do big home party as the Sonnys finale with dj set from Sonny at his back porch

[@noellerose28]

Really really nice build! I love how it fits both of Sonny's island style and a little bit of Judith's luxurious style. I was hoping if you could please move the town hall a bit forward so the pathway in front of Sonny's house could be a bit more spacious? Just a suggestion! Looking forward to see more of Sonny and Judith in Sonny's next episode!

[@ajblue6833]

Things to do in the final Sunny episode: 1) get him the reward trait where he is never cold so he doesn't freeze to death in shorts lol 2) underground grotto with shark pond 3) Judy Island makeover 4) Island wedding 4) renovate the house to be up higher off the ground mostly so it gets more sun instead of being blocked by the town hall. look up houses on stilts in Florida

[@rose_thyme1254]

I'm happy with the level of blue on the outside 💙 It's looking really cool!

[@1Eilatan]

Please give Sonny a hot tub and water underneath the lounge space! Maybe some fish for his moat? The island ladders should be found in the same place as the normal ladders!

[@burtoncrew2909]

I really like the way you have incorporated the blue outside, it's enough in my opinion 😊

[@GoodOleGaming]

Next Sonny episode should be an island themed wedding! Give them island wedding outfits and a beach front venue! That would be gorgeous!

[@amyt6731]

aquarium style fish tanks would be so cool in the basement hallway leading to the vault!

[@browntr95]

It could be cool to turn the area near the vault into a mini functional bunker for if they ever need to hunker down while a PR disaster happens😂 😂😂😂

[@SConArt87]

Awesome build James! I like adding a few black rocks around my island build landscaping for “lava rocks”

[@annoar9776]

So cool!

[@alwaysasking4646]

I’d be so cool if James could upload each of their homes as single lots. I love them all! And they would be fabulous stand alone homes.

[@sgraf15]

Love it! To add more blue to the outside... You could decorate with blue lights or blue flag decorations around the eves. 💙

[@FushaLaine]

I LOVE how the house turned out! I think it has just the right amount of blue.

[@AnnevanDammeOfficial]

I definitely want to see some Island Living debug items! The coral reefs for example. And maybe add a sized down fishtank in the water. The ladder for the water is in transportation I believe

[@liliiaanufrieva6778]

It is not just Sonny’s house anymore. I think Judith’s personality and tastes must be taken into account too. It would be so cool if her touch would be represented in some glamorous 80’s vibes with bright colours, patterns and textures, bright paintings, lots of flower in vases, etc. Like in Apple’s Accopulco series if you have watched it.

[@meeowys]

Judith needs her portrait added in the vault and of course at least one wine rack. What a great way for her to enjoy her success with down to earth Sunny

[@annoar9776]

Omg yes the wine rack!

Just an interesting thing about thatched roofing - Real thatch needs an incline of 45 degrees minimum, with 50-55 being preferred, to stop water leaks and rotting. However, synthetic thatch can manage a slope of about 9 degrees! 😮

[@lindsayhartje6678]

I love how this turned out! I was wary about the open living space but I do love how it looks. I can't imagine how it could get better.

[@LoveJourney0007]

For the home you could get a big aquarium with lots fish. You could also put fish under the glass floor so that you can watch the fish wile watching tv?

[@haewolf]

Those are going to be some breezy Henford on Bagley winters!!! 🥶🥶 Great looking build 🥰

[@annoar9776]

fire place or dine out heaters!

[@MissNintendique]

If you want to designate what table sims use, have a sim put table settings on it. Maybe next Sunny episode you could add more water underneath the glass floor maybe make it a little deeper all around so sims don't freeze themselves walking through it in winter. Then perhaps Judy really gets into the island vibe by wanting to become a mermaid.

[@annoar9776]

omg yes the mermaid!

[@annoar9776]

I also see Sandalwood as a mermaid when he removes his werewolf self. 😂

[@locke_xp]

Judith is definitely due for an island themed makeover!

[@BrillianceoftheMoon]

Think they should have an Island-themed wedding and Judith should have a makeover (maybe a Deli makeover) to be in more of an island style.

[@FROZENFIRE8080]

Good job making Treasure Island with the Volt being buried 😅

[@ezotranslation]

In Sonny's last episode, maybe Sonny could dedicate songs named after each of his siblings (and nephew) to display in the town centre. You might be able to pick the instrument and genre of song based on each of their personalities. And Judith should pick up writing as her new hobby so she can write the Book of Life for Vivienne. I also liked what Deli did in the wedding in her final episode of Tiny Town, where each Tiny Towner used their skill to contribute something the wedding. Perhaps you could do something similar for Sonny and Judith's wedding? Vivienne could write them a romance book about their relationship, Camilo could give them massages, Krystoff could paint them at the wedding, Silas could photograph the wedding, Pablo could gift them a treasure from diving as a wedding present, and Reuben could bake the cake and cater the wedding. Maybe even the side characters could help out! Kyra could be the flower pal, Rahul could be the ring bearer (I also think he'd make a good bartender!), and Semaj could officiate. Not sure if you can invite Patchy, but I think it'd be funny if he was the Sim of Honor or something!

[@annoar9776]

This is so cool, but so much work. 😮

[@robinyodathelilacbunny7419]

I think the finishing touches should be an expanded studio. Put in a few recording booths and an award wall. Maybe put Judith's movie posters in the vault area. This is their fame focus, so make it a big deal to show off.

[@DaemonInWhite]

Always love a James building focused vid!

[@MartiBelo]

The Australian accent of water...love it.
