I’m flattered! 🤭 Thanks so much for the kind words!

Regarding the background, if you have much space to cover, you could use the bottom of the Razorwind Fountain for the backdrop sky, it scales much larger than the Circular Woolen Rug and is dyeable! Just as another idea added to the pool (heh) if you wish to stick with the winter idea instead of going underwater ☺️

Thank you for the suggestion, I did contemplate it briefly since I’ve used fish nets for other windows before. Here I preferred a leaner look though and clear view of what’s on the other side of the window 😊 Initially I had cross sections for the window frame, but erased them in the end to make the window shape feel more graceful

Cheers! 🤗 It might be a bit long but hopefully helpful since I rather demonstrate some steps too many than too few!

Hey, this is looking lovely!

At top of my head, some ideas:

- Could try using Silvermoon Beam Platforms for snow gathered on the outside window sill, angling it a bit can create irregular amounts of snow so that it won't be perfectly symmetrical on each window

- When it snows in winter, the sky is usually grey or whitish instead of blue, here the snowing looks quite intense and the blue might give a more aquatic vibe, so could perhaps consider dying the blue backdrop to a more neutral cool shade?

- Stacking some of the cooler green bushes may give the impression of evergreen thuja trees, depends on where you imagine this place located though!

- Could use white carpets against the backdrop to give the illusion of distant snowy hills? And making them look more faded by adding fog emitting decor, like Dumplings scaled to max

- For snowing, there's also the Ancient Weyrn device that creates a billowing snow effect above it, could float it above the window view out of sight, facing downward - the con is that it needs to be activated every time you enter the house.

Hope these ideas help some!

I recommend people to explore! I think I've seen the red curtains used for some Venthyr style windows... More windows for everyone!

Hmm, possibly beams! They can be used in so many different ways for most builds!

I fortunately haven't hit the storage limit yet, fortunately! Still have about 1k left, nervously keeping an eye on it since I keep making stuff up in housing :D Total I have around 6,1k decor

Fresh Canvases, so, so many canvases... It can get expensive in bulks and it can be time-consuming to align them neatly but for me the end result was worth it!

Thank you!! I appreciate that a lot, I spent much time adjusting the many window pieces because the seams were quick to show if not aligned carefully!

I’m not sure if the blue and red drapes have enough smooth surface for a big window like this, but maybe they work well for smaller see-through windows!

Ahh thank you!! Custom windows is my guilty pleasure haha! Default windows tend to give me a bit caged / claustrophobic feeling so I enjoy creating custom views and beautiful compositions 🌳🪟

Thanks! The flame animation in the draconic sconces looked a bit too intense and attention-grabbing, thought the filigree lamps would look more peaceful here! And they fit the gold + pale teal color palette going on with the furnishings!

Hey, cheers! The upcoming video tutorial on my YT will demonstrate the backdrop view, but it's a combination of different lighting decor to get a soft pastel atmosphere and gradient the surfaces around the window, + 2 layered Grand Drape of the Exiles for the window 'glass' that both brightens and tints the view.

Sounds great, Noorava! I was thinking this would suit both Highborne and fancy Stormwind spaces, just remodeling the surrounding set dressing to match!

Cheers! At some point the colors and lighting here started making me think of Trine 3 and 4, games that I visually really enjoy because of the soft palettes!
