Erhama,
No offense taken.

As stated above, under "Things to Keep in Mind":
"These lots are creations from my imagination based mainly on excerpts from the books and on-line information. I am basing very little on the movie versions of each place, so don't expect exact replica's of movie versions of the various places in the Magic and Muggle World."

As far as the books go, the description of Azkaban is quite cryptic. Very little is said to actually describe the place - which for me means I can let my imagination go wild! And I did! :D

Take care and glad you like the "look" anyway!

Sometimes it's better to use some imagination when creating this kind of lots, not all replica's turn out great in this game - I like this a lot, you've done an amazing job

Life's a game, so let's play!

Oh my, I LOVE what you did with this! The icicle spikes are such a nice touch, and I absolutely adore the idea of using the invisible floor tiles. Your creativity always floors me, and I have no idea what to say. You're amazing. <3

I really love your lot. Plus thank again for using my invisible door.

Update: July 2009-I am back now to make invisible and tranparent recolors again in sims 2. You can pm me if you want your objects to be invisible and transparent from now.

I really like this prison! Eventhough it's not like the actual Azkaban, your imaginative rendention of it is awesome! I'm going to check out all your other creations too! Once I get the expansion packs I need---I'll download them all! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Glad you like it Jynx. :D

I could only find descriptions in the books and on-line that described Azkaban as cold, isolated and towering. I really do not care for the movie version as it is not very "imaginative"! What's so splendid about a triangular building? That would be typical and I try not to do typical. Besides, that sort of building is not quite functional for Simming! I'll leave it to someone else to create the triangular version.

At any rate, I hope you enjoy the download (when you get it). BTW - I have updated my Harry Potter Collection so they no longer require STUFF Packs! Take care.

Stephanie

I downloaded that dementor costume ages ago and have only ever been able to admire it in CAS (it's not the sort of thing you can just walk down the street in lol). Now I have a neighbourhood with HP sims in it I am totally stealing this! It looks totally cool. Well actually it looks horribly creepy, so it must be right. XD

Actually my neighbourhood isn't entirely HP, so this will definitely terrify the muggle criminals into going straight. They'll think they're being fed hallucinogenic drugs or something lol.

Oh and I definitely preferred the book versions of a lot of things. I swear the people who designed Remus' werewolf form never read the books. They're supposed to be almost indistinguishable from a true wolf!

Thanks for the comment Charity. My vision for the HP world have drastically changed as well, as I reread the books. Although, I suspect personal vision cannot help but get in the way of "original" be it book or movie. I know I sort of like doing my own thing. But, I'm glad you can get some enjoyment out of this massive prison.
