I've been working on a couple of sets that seem to be getting further from uploadable instead of nearer , since I keep expanding them with new ideas and discoveries. As part of the process, experiments on various existing game objects have cluttered my hard drive with many Frankenstein-like meshes and recolors. While trying to clean it up a bit, I found that I just couldn't let go of a few of these half-finished projects and decided to finish them out so I could get my beak wet at uploading content. I'm calling these sentimental holdouts "Unintentional Mods".

I watch way too much TV - especially Sci-Fi and comics-based shows. This wall sconce is part of a larger set of office furniture and deco inspired by the office of a character from Supergirl. It is also the first mesh I attempted after the tutorial table, so this is the beast that taught me how to use Blender and SimPE. After getting it looking and acting satisfactorily in game, I compared it to a saved screenshot only to discover I drew it wrong. So the set gets the corrected mesh, and this one (which has a "first child" place in my heart) gets released as "UM#2". I hope you find a place for it in your lots.

The attached .rar file contains the mesh package and a recolor package.
