Making Steps

Editorial notes based on creator, source, or submitter information.

Use the four-sided pyramid template as a glass city ornament. The simplest version is a triangle filled with the rightmost paint-bucket pattern; keep the base transparent for a hollow glass effect. If you draw linework, just align the lines as neatly as you can. For a cleaner version, layer a few highlights with the brush. The author used the final glow mode for a moving light effect, and you can place a smaller pyramid beside it if the space needs balance.

Recreation Notes ?
Every day I've been thinking about how to fill all the empty space on my island… but I'm super lazy, I really don't like making things by hand, and I feel like buildings always end up with this kind of cardboard-cutout look. My island is going for a city vibe, and there's a big open area in front of the TV station I wanted to put something in. While browsing workshop templates, I came across this square pyramid and had a sudden idea — I could build one of those glass art installations. The simplest version is the triangle one — just use the paint bucket with the rightmost pattern to fill the vans, and the result looks really nice! If you want to draw lines it's easy too, just line them up (or maybe not lining them up could give it a kind of casual feel). The base color is transparent, so it actually comes out with a cutout effect, which I think looks great too, though if you zoom in the jagged edges are pretty noticeable. If you want something more detailed you can layer on some highlights with the pen. For the glow mode I picked the last one — the animated effect is really nice, it has this feeling of light and shadow flowing. And the colored areas will also catch the sunlight and reflect it, I love that. You can also make a smaller one to pair with it (the photos are just me placing things randomly for the showcase, I might only want to put one in the end) Not sure what other buildings have that city feel but are also lazy-friendly to copy 🤔 Honestly I still prefer the game's built-in buildings, I just wish there were more of them
