2D's room was so much fun to make, he is probably my favourite member of Gorillaz. The Gorillaz art is just no-CC art from the Gallery. It adds a super cool touch to the whole Kong Studios build. I also love the weird doors I've been using for all the rooms by @the-crypt-o-club I think this set. I think the arty painted table is also by them in the DIY or Die set their stuff is awesome!!! also feels very maxis match and official.

Also these deco keyboards by @pixlmonster were EVERYTHING for this room in particular, you'll see in the reference pics 2D's room had TONS of them.

The "amazing 2D" graffiti was pure coincidence I found it in my game it was meant to be.

Again, there is a lot of cyberpunk 2077 CC in this build, so those TV screens on the wall I think by @hamsterbellbelle download here. Though I can't tell if they are that object or another so if it's wrong sorry 😅

I can't find the cool synthesizer stereo object that 2D is repairing sorry :(

I used the messy clothes on floor rug from the 2t4 teen style conversions by @simsi45

Xelenn made the buddha wall deco but I couldn't find the little gold one yet

Cyberpunk apartment clutter set for the aesthetic cyberpunk light

I didn't mention in other posts but also shoutout to @aroundthesims content which is super useful for making this build (and many others) look super grungy and messy: Uglify Your Town and Slob's Life Anyways a LOT of cc was used in this build, the lot is HUGE so if I make a cc list it will take me a long time, but possibly as I have mentioned I'll do it in the future.

If you're a Gorillaz fan please show these posts some love <3 I really enjoyed making them and any support is appreciated.

Reference pics:

I didn't include the "Ha** Sat**" because it was a vandalism done by Murdoc on poor 2D's room, I included it in Murdoc's room which I'll be uploading x)

I'm just now realising I should have added those cool rainbow neon strips but I might update that :)

Occupation(s): Songwriter, Guitarist, Vocalist, Ex-Super Soldier

Inspired by D.A.R.E. I used the video for extra reference especially for the front side of the room which i couldn't see well in the reference pics.

Theres a cute little scene in the MTV Cribs Gorillaz short where noodle kicks Murdoc out of her room. The cute ceiling lanterns are missing in this pic because I forgot to start the tab camera from a zoomed out position and they fade when you zoom in my bad.

In the Phase 1 room, that little blue chair was actually Noodle's bed but after she has the white one, so I made it into a chair. If you understand it, please ignore the sign probably meaning something extremely random I can (slightly) read hiragana/katakana but not kanjis sorry I hope it doesn't mean poop or something bad it was just for aesthetic.

I made her room quite messy, because I have an obsession with messy rooms and Gorillaz aesthetics did tend to be quite cluttered and messy.

I like to imagine Cyborg Noodle stole Noodles soldier clothes, so that's why she is wearing them. She is still a badass who loves to train just in case.

The literal description of Kids with Guns. Obviously guns are bad, this is fiction, don't use guns.

I used tons of Cyberpunk 2077 cc for this room and other parts of the building. So that giant head is a Beta version of Shaun Ryder before he could drunk-British karaoke sing D.A.R.E. with Noodle in her secret room. No one is going to convince me that Gorillaz is not slightly cyberpunk, they're a virtual band with holograms, with cyborgs, weird talking robot heads, dystopian and apocalyptic themes and beaches made of plastic.

The bathroom and many parts of the lot were made up but there was no way I was gonna make a poor innocent little teen girl share the disgusting toilets and bathrooms with three dirty grown men ( ×m×) Hers is also slightly dirty but nowhere near as bad I'll post them in future posts.

I created these sims a long time ago, they were so much fun to make, I even made my own (terrible) cc to make certain clothing items more accurate. The lot they live on is Kong Studios, I kind of mixed all the Phases, but my favourite was Phase 2. In the future I hope to do more Phase 3, after that everything is a bit unknown to me as Gorillaz were kind of on hiatus for many years after Plastic Beach and I fell out of touch with them, only to realise quite recently they have tons of new music 🧡

For the inspiration I used I'll leave reference photos I found, from all the old online flash games there use to be, I loved them it's a shame that part of the internet is over x), as well as using their music videos and Rise of the Ogre comic. They're all super bad quality because 240p videos and footage of the 2000's.

Overall I had a really fun time making them and taking these pics, I know they're old but it gives me a lot of nostalgia and I love their music and the entire project. Also I use tons of cc so I don't know if I'll be sharing a CC list, I started making it only to see I was taking 3 hours for barely any of it, so I may (possibly) share it in the future with the lot and sims files, but for now I'm just showing the project. I might also make some cosy lets play videos with them just chilling for my YouTube.

Any support for my posts is greatly appreciated 🧡

From the wiki: Russel Hobbs is the official drummer and percussionist of Gorillaz.

Born: Brooklyn, New York City, United States of America, 3rd June 1975.

Instruments: Drums, Percussion, Drum Machine, Turntable, Ukulele, Trumpet.

Occupation: Drummer for Gorillaz

Nationality: African-American

Religion: Islam

Created by Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn.

Russel's room is much less cluttered than the others, and less than the reference pics I used, but by the time I was doing his room on the top floor of Kong Studios (a 5 floor building) it was lagging a bit; so only the seating area is more cluttered with food items. I will probably add more though. I love the strong pops of colour and I tried to mimic the wall art with whatever I had in my game. The drum kit 3t4 conversion is functional with sounds, and it's by Cepzid -> Functional drum kit by @hanalinori

I still can't believe sims 4 doesn't officially have drums?
