WCIF....maxis cheap kitchen recolored?

Argh, I'm going crazy because I KNOW that this exists somewhere! Basically, I'm trying to whittle my furniture downloads to just maxis recolors (this months GOS theme has been enormously helpful in this regard!), but what I can't seem to find anywhere is nice recolors of the cheap kitchen. You know the one - it's called "Krampf," I believe. Specifically, I'd like it in Aelia's colors, though I suppose I'd take Pooklet's if no other ones were available. Recolors of the cheap fridge and stove would be nice, too. Anyway, because I know that these must exist somewhere, I'm not going to post to [livejournal.com profile] wcif_sims. Because I will feel stupid asking for something that is probably RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY NOSE!

Ugh, can anyone help?

Thanks. :) I was just looking at these and considering downloading them. Only I don't believe she did counters, just stoves, fridge, etc. I might just go with Piggi's chenille colors, if I can't find aelia/pooklet.

I don't think I've ever seen any Aelia/Pooklet recolours of those counters. Would be nice. Maybe I need to get more organised and do it myself so I can get rid of the Piggis recolours I have. It's great that she does so many but a lot of the time the recolours lose detail because she used flat textures.

I'm not promising anything because I'm rather busy at the moment, but I do have this in mind as a project. I've just never recoloured kitchen counters so I have no idea how it will go or if I ever get around to it. Once I get going I make stuff at a frightening rate. It's just a matter of beating the lazy out of me at a time when I'm not quite so busy with RL stuff.

(Katu is coming to my place in about 3 weeks and the house looks like a disaster zone plus other stuff is happening so I'm running around like a chook without a head, trying to clean and organise stuff).

That seems so surprising that no one has done them! Yeah, Piggi's are okay in a pinch but I'm really enchanted by the idea of Aelia (or Pook) colors. I appreciate that you're considering doing them. Meanwhile, I shall keep looking....

Please let me know if you find them, because it would mean I could just do mass deletion of the Piggis recolours I have and just use those. And it will save me a bunch of work :) But I WILL have a go at it in the next few weeks if I don't see a post or reply from you.

I think I need to start a project list...

Well, would you say that this picture is a pooklet/aelia recolor? I don't think it looks like Piggi's...and I'm pretty sure that it's the cheap maxis kitchen, too. I might use this picture to make a post in [livejournal.com profile] wcif_sims, unless you think it's piggi's recolor.

I think the handles on the doors don't look right. They're very similar but I don't think that's the in-game counter. I think the handles are slightly longer on the in-game counter.

ETA: though now that I think about it, I could be wrong. I don't know ALL of Piggis' colours so those could well be it. Just ask Junky?

I dropped her a message. Hopefully she'll answer. :)

No such luck! The ones she's using are maxis, but not an aelia/pooklet recolor.

They're from here (http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=19069.255).
