Game of Thrones: Harrenhal Build Set....kinda, sorta

Huh? Confused? lol......well what was meant to be the Harrenhal Build Set I think might be better described as the Dark Stone set because (to me anyway) it doesn't accurately resemble what I believe to be what Harrenhal. And it also seems to have no end either - just when I think I'm done, as I'm testing one thing I look and think "I need to make a matching staircase" or "i need to make a matching fence", so what was originally just going to be a couple of walls, windows, & floors became a much bigger project. I'm not even quite sure I'm done with it just yet, but I'm hoping it is at least "mostly" done because I want to take a little break from the Medieval and go back to modern times - at least temporarily.

Originally the start of the Harrenhal Set was a freak accident - I recolored a window from Olemantiker's Fairybulosa Set darker then I intended to. But I liked the results and decided to add to it eventually (which finally happened). So for the first part of this set is the remaining pieces of Olemantiker's Fairybulosa Set that I recolored. (don't forget to visit http://beosboxboy.blogspot.com/ to download the the meshes listed under "Build Sets")



Pieces in the set include: 4 windows, 4 door arches, chain link fence, curved staircase & column.

Now there's also the dark stone walls, floor, and of course stone modular stairs.

Modular Stairs are a recolor of Numenor's Recolorable Deck Stairs, mesh & use info inside of RAR file.

Once all this was done, I realized it needed a tall stone fence & a stone garden border.....



These are recolors of the Short Mortar & the Faux Castle Wall.

When I was testing these items I was converting a modern community lot into a Medieval lot and realized I needed a few Medieval Recreational Items & a wooden floor to match the dark stone theme

And a not so perfect mirror:

At some point I realized I didn't have enough dark stone windows & doors, and Wood For Sim's Winery Build Set seemed a perfect match to the theme, and so they were the next on my recoloring list. You'll need meshes for these - go here to grab them: http://www.woodforsims.de/html/them_wfs2_rustic.html or here: http://svt.paysites.mustbedestroyed.org:8080/booty/ts2/wood_for_sims/

And the final part of this set (as far as I can tell right now - in two weeks, who knows I might realize "need more.....") is the roof. Well not just one roof, but several. Started with recoloring the "a bit steep roofing", then I stumbled upon a similar recreation of the "a bit steep roofing" from Patchwork Sims, and recolored that to match, and finally recolor the regular Sims roof in that same dark stone.

Hope you like this set. As of right now I'm saying that I am taking a break from the Medieval Theme, I'll likely be back to it once the new seasons of Game of Thrones starts or may be back sooner. Here's some additional pictures of the Dark Stone Themed items:
