MissyNighthawk is a Danish Simmer who builds a variety of different styles, she uploads speed builds of her creations to YouTube and showcases them on Facebook. I am going to start off by showcasing one of her more recent builds, Witches Cottage. She has built the save game file she is working on as part of one of her stories.

The roofing on this build is fantastic, and her landscaping looks magical, yet natural. Her command of the terrain painting tool is fabulous!

The interiors are so cosy and homey. There are so many cool little decor items in here, yet it doesn’t look overly cluttered somehow. I just love how she’s used such an eclectic mix of furniture from different packs and it all looks like it totally belongs together, this can be incredibly hard to accomplish! The room where the magic happens has a similar feel, I really envy Missy’s cluttering skills.

Her use of MOO to create all the custom stone furniture is just wonderful, and look at all the floor!

Having the lovely alchemy pictures on the wall is such a nice touch as is that cute little armchair tucked away by the door, for when your magical Sim just wants to sit and contemplate.

There is a small half bath downstairs and the actual bath is hidden away on the tiny little second floor reached by a handily placed ladder. And the requisite bucket for helping fill it is provided as well. I’m not sure how much water would be left in it after my clumsy Simself reached the bath though

The small bedroom is almost an afterthought, which I really like in a build like this, this place is built for alchemy and herbal-ism. It's so wonderful!

The next build of hers I’m going to show you all is a Haunted House!! It just so happens that it was raining when I loaded this save up to show off this stunningly dilapidated Victorian, how very apt.

Again Missy’s roofing work is amazing and I love how she has used the rooftop accessories to really give this place a proper Victorian feel. The crumbling stone walls surrounding it and the ivy and brambles along with all the closed shutters really give this place a feeling of neglect and abandon.

sculpted path leading to the front patio. The landscaping for this build is simple, yet perfect, with lots of overgrown bushes, briars and not much else, although I did spy this gorgeous little bench just waiting for someone to come and unearth it.

The front stoop looks appropriately unused, the tools were a genius touch, as they give the air that someone might be along at any time to come and de-bramble the grounds. And those scratches on the front door are genius, someone really wants to get in...

The interior is just as wonderfully detailed as the outside, it’s all a bit gloomy and worn in here, but that’s just what you’d expect right?

The front door leads you into this perfectly proportioned open space with a living area and kitchen, the holes in the walls, the spiderwebs and the dirt over the wainscoting all lend themselves perfectly to the theme. The decor is suitably old fashioned and her choice of window treatments is just perfect.

There is also an office area in the large open plan space, and you can tell that whoever is staying here is very much looking into why the house is the way it is. Again Missy’s attention to detail is wonderful as are her clutter and decor choices.

At the other end of this space lies a seance room at the other end of this space, which is perfectly proportioned. I’ve covered the main living area, now onto the bathroom and bedroom.

The bathroom is delightfully grungy but still usable, and that arrangement of accent table under the mirror is awesome, I will definitely have to remember that trick. The bedroom looks like it would have been incredibly opulent in days gone by, which really is perfect for the style Missy has gone for with this entire build.

I hope you have enjoyed touring these builds as much as I have! You can find Missy’s builds on the gallery under her EAID: MissNighthawk_YT, on YouTube as Miss Nighthawk, on Facebook as Missy Nighthawk and Twitter as @Eunagina
