Same I always play as painters and writers. Passing on this pack though very sad it’s all just unusable set Dressing/clutter. It’s not wowing me nothing in the pack I cant do already in sims 4 with custom cc artist stuff.
I dont know what the pack I downloaded was but im sure its easy to find (prob got it on sims 4 resource typing in “artist” There’s a cc artist set with an artist cart, paint brush cups, new easel, paint tubes you can individually place with all color swatches, and new canvas with places to slot things on to it. Its all for you to decorate your art rooms with comes with more clutter items too and its free!
The kit is great, always grateful for new clutter that is art related. BUT I'm kinda ticked that they didn't make it a game pack and include more artistic hobbies. The fact that they put the chest sculpture in there just urks me that sims 4 doesn't have rock carving like the sims 1 did. And I know a lot of people keep asking for ceramics/pottery to be a thing. But no, just have some more clutter and you can pretend your sims do that stuff cause we don't want to be bothered animating that :/
If people keep asking for something, you can be sure that they won't do it or if, then only in like 5 years from now and then very badly. But you will gett 5 million useless, overpriced stools and wallpapers and clutter in tiny kits in the meantime.
I think your adult jokes are a part of the things that help you stand out, because most of the popular simmers kind of go for the cute and friendly vibe but hey, we're all like here for the fun, so what's the problem. :D But only if you really want to, we love you all the same.
Ah yes, a fellow loyal "customer!" Tell me, how do you feel about sailing on the open seas and pillaging boats and recruiting a motley crew of Simmers?
@@renehollydesigns522 true lol not me being a karen. still would be cool if we could use it like a street performer in city living. or makeup chair in get famous.
I am really annoyed that we don't get new gameplay with kits. I remember how everyone complained about the sims 3 store being cashgrabby, but atleast you got kit sized purchases that actually had gameplay attached to it. You could get an entire DIY rollercoaster and casino from there. The sims 4 could never.
What I find interesting is that nobody seemed to mind Sims 2's stuff packs or think they were cash grabby, even though none of them added any new gameplay mechanics (the last one, Mansion and Gardens, is coded more like an EP than an SP and came with some minor tweaks and bug fixes for some of the gameplay that was added in Apartment life, but still no actual new gameplay) either.
@@Mathinblogit does but I’m done giving them money while they destroy the game with their greed. If they did this to pay for improvements I’d consider it. But they don’t fix this game. People keep reporting infinite loading screens and being unable to play. I don’t think an art pack makes it better or playable.
the stuff does look nice but still not nice enough to spend more money on that frigging game. completely agree about the lack of gameplay / functional objects.
@@ksprdotexea sketchbook would’ve been so smart, since there’s a digital one in the base game but people totally would’ve bought it just for having a different, non-digital version. they wouldn’t have even needed to add a new skill or career.
Cross use for skills would actually be really great. I'd love to see wood working and painting skills being used together to do more advanced things. There are so many skill combinations that could have really interesting and fun results
I wish there was like a wallpaper that looked like someone painted and drew on it like a tree with butterflies or smth for a kids room or an abstract shapes thing for a living room type feel that looks drawn
I would have rather an art Stuff Pack adding pottery or sculptures or other new things. But this is still cute. I'd also love an update to painting, like the ability to add different filters to the Paint By Reference art. Sketching would also be fun.
I faked a studio for an alebrije maker in Ciudad Enamorada, using the woodworking table and an easel, along with a bunch of decor. It would be really neat to actually be able to bring that idea to life!
This might be the first kit I actually buy. I’m an artist and I’ve always wanted more art studio stuff in the game. And the first wall art with the drawings is just supposed to be figure drawing 😂
Dying for a musicians kit. Mixing console, standalone speakers that look very cool. Make a little recording studio for a residential and proper live stage area for venues. Adding electric guitar, bass guitars (and double bass), trumpets and saxophones, drum kit, percussion in general. Would love this
Argh i was hyped for this one but seeing each object, I’m really disappointed…. No brush, no paint tubes alone in clutter, no sketchbook and by that I mean functional sketchbook, there’s no cartoon / comics / architecture drawing table (like in sims 2 or 3 i don’t remember which one), the drawings to pin to a wall are a big block of drawings with one theme, it would have been cool to do a mix of styles or theme by our own too. A new drawing skill apart from painting would have been cool too… As always, I can say all my ccs about painting and drawing are more elaborate… but sure, it’s cool for console players, could have been better.
You expect that from a kit? That sounds lile a stuff pack if you want a whole new skill. I thunk Bust The Dust was the first and last kit they included new gameplay objects in, and that was when they first tried out the format.
@@tonichan89 oh yeah true, let's forget the skill but even Satch suggested something about the skills (OK pré existent skills but still) I was expecting a little more creativity at least for the objects. 🤷🏼♀️
Canceling Rene is basically admitting that their great big "renewal" wasn't even gonna come close to matching the competition. So, instead of upping their game, they choose to back out and focus on Sims 4 to minimize losses. They're only willing to spit out new games when they dominate the genre. Bravo.
One of the few kits i really want not just for my artist sims but for my art gallery community lots. I love the paint splattered swatches so the objects feel like their actively being used
They could've made the desk a place where you can draw, it'd be a very cool addition to the kit and be true to real life. It'd almost be like that art table for kids but it works just like an easel lol
this looks really nice. one thing ill say about the pre-made room is the easel is way too close to the still life set. for more "realism" i would place it further away, otherwise the canvas will block the view. its the sims so doesnt matter, but for anyone who wants it to be more realistic you need to be able to see the thing youre referencing when painting/drawing lol i think ill pick this one up though. there is a serious lack of art-related items in this game. i wish we could get more gameplay too like ceramics, sculpture, or even tattooing
Different clutter items have different sizes, so for example if you try to place a pear or an element collectible, there were probably more slots it could fit on the desk than that big stack of books
Van Gogh was Dutch. The Dutch “g” is pronounced very different compared to English and “gh” is the same as a g without h. Our “o” is pronounced as a short “o”. Satch didn’t pronounce it correctly, the g sounds different in Dutch, not like some disgusting coughing sound.
Dang, 30 seconds in and I feel like I need this kit, just for the 'paneling' that looks like plywood/particle board. I can envision this in a lot of cool builds!
I agree. This does look like a nice set that I would buy. The sink and the metal cabinet with one tall door on one side and three small doors on the other, would both work in or near a laundry/utility room. Thanks for showing this.
this is one of the few kits im actually gonna buy because i personally use the basement sims making paintings to get me money feature and might as well look asthetic while doing it
We are definitely getting a circus pack! I saw a clown/the joker in one of the swatches of the sketches also some of the items in the other kit are circus-themed
They could do it a bit like sims 2 freetime expansion pack - the ceramic and other artistic activities, the painting desk, and add some sort of more empty easels for clutter.
7:46 I think EA made a huge mistake making one of the paint swatches white because knowing Simmers using Wicked Whims this is going to be used in very VERY different way than intended
That was really a brilliant idea to combine the woodworking and painting skill! I hope EA listens to this! I do both painting and sculpture - so for me this whole kit is awesome - BUT could be better! We need to be able to do stone sculptures and ceramics!
maybe the new pack will have zombies, I mean, it's called live and death, and the drawings that may hint something about the new pack have a set of hands that kinda look like the ones we see in movies when the zombie first wakes up from the grave. I don't know, maybe I'm just travelling
@@tonichan89 Oh, I know! But this feels like such a waste of money and a missed opportunity for good gameplay. You can just download a free CC art pack instead of buying this one :/
You ended up the first youtuber I saw making this review, because I really wanted to double-check that some of the things I was assuming were true =) I think the only thing I was a touch disappointed by is that it was just a backdrop and not a way to sell paintings (like the City Living one). I *do* enjoy another woodworking bench, since yeah. We've got one. And it's not all that fun
This is an actual pretty good kit! Thank you for the review! I 98.73% agree with you in your videos, and I honestly took your opinion seriously in reconsideration when buying packs. I also looooove your scratchy laugh 😊
Ooo I’d love an Art expansion pack! The world could be in Paris filled with theatre, ballet, drawing, painting, floral art and musicians of all kinds. That’s an idea for the “ adventure “ pack for sims4. I know it won’t happen but this kit makes me want a European themed pack 😊
I saw a review of the other kit, and I'm kind of annoyed. Storybook Nursery at least comes with a changing station and a playmat (exclusive to Growing Together) and a rocking chair (exclusive to Nifty Knitting). It's recycled content, but at least it's new gameplay for people who don't own these already (and a kit is cheaper than expansion pack + stuff puck). What we get with this one? Nothing. I would love a drawing table or table easel, so sims could paint while sitting down (and not with a tablet), but that would require new animation. I think we should actually get an Architect Table with the Dream Home Decorator, then It could reuse that. Well... at least we could get an alternative to Street Gallery from City Living, to display and sell art. That would make sense and it would add some gameplay. Instead, I could recommend CC Pack, Art Studio My Rustic Lodge. It's quite similar.
None of the kits sans Bust the Dust adds new gameplay, though. If new gameplay was added, it would be a stuff pack. As for the nursery kit, it's not recycled stuff. Yeah, we had a rocking chair and a playmat, but just one of each and they don't look remotely like the ones in the Storybook Nursery Kit. Personally, I'm glad we got more options.
Everything in this kit is really nice and good quality to make a very cool looking art studio. I also like the table that you can't place things on because it makes it really easy to raise up various objects to make your own clutter scene. I Like to woodworking table and everything would have been so perfect if it was a sculpture table. I believe there are new paintings as I didn't regonise the ones my sim made. Thumbs up.
A lot of mods still work, actually. I only had to download updates for a couple of mine (fortunately the creators put those updates out almost immediately).
I wasn't that interested in this kit ... but now after seeing your review I do like it. It would be good to build attics, basements, storage sheds, garages, offices, classrooms, etc.
I never get excited for kits, but I bought this one as soon as it showed up in the EA app 😅 I mainly build and I only owned 5 kits that I felt offer an aesthetic or function not present in the main game or packs. But I also have an artist in every household I make, so this one is a necessity for that realistic workroom vibe.
In that premade room, you would not be able to paint those objects from reference, because the easel would be blocking your view, unless it works differently from the other easels.
Unless there is a good CC version I might be getting this set! I’ve never bought a kit, but this is actually really nice and pretty much every household I have has one painter! I love playing with painting!
One art pack portrait art really reminds me of the joker, robin, posion ivy, etc. I wonder if they are doing a collab in the future that is in the works.
i guess you can use that desk sizing down a kitchen counter. Really nice kit, when i first started sims4 the way to earn some money was painting, I still do sometimes.
if i remember right this was made by sixamcc who really does make some brilliant stuff! if you play on a client that allows for cc they actually have a cc pack (i believe it's called the rustic lodge art studio or something of the sort) which has similar items! just a little less sims 4 base game-y (by which i mean they're more stylised, they don't quite fit in with the base game as nicely as the kit). edit: my mistake, sixamcc didn't work on the artist studio kit, they worked on the storybook nursery kit, which is the other new kit. still, they have a lot of nursery/kids room cc packs! so if those interest you and you're able to download mods you can pretty much skip out on these packs entirely
Thank you for yet another very honest and blunt review! ❤ I don't care how bad the kids get because Im a modder and I do need to download the kit so I'll haveeshes so that I can mod
I love this! I always do artsy sims and I love the paint swatches on the existing easels as well. I will like these items, but I still think it's over priced... That being said, I already own everything apart orm like 5 kits..
You need to go back to the sinister posters on that wall art Satch. I haven't seen any teasers for the Life & Death expansion yet, but from the looks of 2 of those posters, we might be getting Zombies back.
I really like both of them but I really like the nursery Kit. better. First my saw that seeing that look a stroller. I thought of the stroller, but turns out it's another fascinate for a baby. I wish they would put some strollers in a game too. That would be awesome. And and baby swings.
I would LOVE more woodworking objects, and painting them too! I play Amish/rural life, and my Sims have to make their own furniture. The lack of objects you can create is really limiting/annoying.
It's gorgeous, especially the messy swatch. I just wish the painting in the sims 4 doesn't feel like cheating 😂. I can make thousands of simoleons in a day just from painting lol
As someone who always plays as an artist or a writer this is interesting
I'm terribly dyslexic and read this as an _arter_ or a _writist_ 🤦🏾♀️🤣

We are definitely getting a circus pack! I saw a clown/the joker in one of the swatches of the sketches also some of the items in the other kit are circus-themed
That woodworking table really is the selling point of this kit
A chair that has a towel with paint on it hanging off the back would be cool for a desk with the kit
Awesome for an art classroom with the high school pack
I love the dark lilies in cracked vases. 😂 And a new woodworking table! Although honestly, I’m MUCH more excited for the nursery kit.

Paint by reference works best in the sims 4 by having your sim's back to the subject you are painting.
A bosom is the chest. And also, the person who did it has never seen one before because there is no such thing as an 8-10 pack.
I would assume they've seen at least one chest- their own. 😉
I love it when Satch is happy
That was really a brilliant idea to combine the woodworking and painting skill! I hope EA listens to this! I do both painting and sculpture - so for me this whole kit is awesome - BUT could be better! We need to be able to do stone sculptures and ceramics!
maybe the new pack will have zombies, I mean, it's called live and death, and the drawings that may hint something about the new pack have a set of hands that kinda look like the ones we see in movies when the zombie first wakes up from the grave.

I wasn't that interested in this kit ... but now after seeing your review I do like it. It would be good to build attics, basements, storage sheds, garages, offices, classrooms, etc.
8:29 literally shadows everywhere 😂
I often do wood working... To build the handiness of my Sims. That's about it.
The muscles are wrong on the statue 💀
I never get excited for kits, but I bought this one as soon as it showed up in the EA app 😅
I mainly build and I only owned 5 kits that I felt offer an aesthetic or function not present in the main game or packs. But I also have an artist in every household I make, so this one is a necessity for that realistic workroom vibe.
In that premade room, you would not be able to paint those objects from reference, because the easel would be blocking your view, unless it works differently from the other easels.
Unless there is a good CC version I might be getting this set! I’ve never bought a kit, but this is actually really nice and pretty much every household I have has one painter! I love playing with painting!
I'm so excite that you are playing it.
This kit can be used for a room under construction, too!
I’ve always said “vangoff” partly because of the doctor who episode I watched on Vangough. 😂
One art pack portrait art really reminds me of the joker, robin, posion ivy, etc. I wonder if they are doing a collab in the future that is in the works.
i guess you can use that desk sizing down a kitchen counter. Really nice kit, when i first started sims4 the way to earn some money was painting, I still do sometimes.
I always play an artist, being an artist myself. I really wish they would add sewing or ceramics, i think it would be so fun
if i remember right this was made by sixamcc who really does make some brilliant stuff! if you play on a client that allows for cc they actually have a cc pack (i believe it's called the rustic lodge art studio or something of the sort) which has similar items! just a little less sims 4 base game-y (by which i mean they're more stylised, they don't quite fit in with the base game as nicely as the kit).
edit: my mistake, sixamcc didn't work on the artist studio kit, they worked on the storybook nursery kit, which is the other new kit. still, they have a lot of nursery/kids room cc packs! so if those interest you and you're able to download mods you can pretty much skip out on these packs entirely
Cute items ngl. Can’t wait for someone to make this into a cc pack
Thank you for yet another very honest and blunt review! ❤ I don't care how bad the kids get because Im a modder and I do need to download the kit so I'll haveeshes so that I can mod
You should use a smaller clutter piece to look for slots- the water bottle from the everyday clutter kit is perfect for that ^-^
I love this! I always do artsy sims and I love the paint swatches on the existing easels as well. I will like these items, but I still think it's over priced... That being said, I already own everything apart orm like 5 kits..
I definitely wish there were more gameplay objects. They could have finally done something with that lump of clay in base game.
That fruit plate is chef’s kiss for historic gameplay
You need to go back to the sinister posters on that wall art Satch. I haven't seen any teasers for the Life & Death expansion yet, but from the looks of 2 of those posters, we might be getting Zombies back.
as an artist I can assure you, that you absolutely can do art on a desk.
i LOVE it! just built an art studio & coffee shop tho 😅
I really like both of them but I really like the nursery Kit. better. First my saw that seeing that look a stroller. I thought of the stroller, but turns out it's another fascinate for a baby. I wish they would put some strollers in a game too. That would be awesome. And and baby swings.
I would LOVE more woodworking objects, and painting them too! I play Amish/rural life, and my Sims have to make their own furniture. The lack of objects you can create is really limiting/annoying.
It's gorgeous, especially the messy swatch. I just wish the painting in the sims 4 doesn't feel like cheating 😂. I can make thousands of simoleons in a day just from painting lol
