Yes Sims 3 does have its faults, but overall I love this game so much. I feel like my excitement for playing this is even more so than it was for Sims 2. Which seems odd since the leap from Sims 1 to 2 was much bigger than from Sims 2 to 3.

I'm addicted to making sims! Especially celebrities. It's so much more a challenge to make them without CC, which in some ways is the fun part. You have to really pay attention to the facial features of the person instead of finding any old HQ picture and slapping it on a skintone. I only wish there were more hair options! Even after downloading from the store I've found the variety to be seriously lacking. I'm tired of using the same styles for medium length hair -___-

So since I mentioned that I love making celebrities... wonder of wonder I have new downloads available lol.

The first is supermodel Gemma Ward

The next is pop artist Lady Gaga.

And the last that's available for download atm is the runner-up of Cycle 12's ANTM Allison Harvard.

 

Aaaaand she's not published yet, but when she get's approved... actress Keira Knightley.

It's Thanksgiving Week ya'll! And lucky me, I have this whole week off of school.

But you can trust that I won't be resting on my laurels... I have a big project ahead of me.

We all know that the VS runway show was this week right? Naturally anybody and everybody will be wanting to skin those outfits, and I'm included!

I, however, am planning to all-out with this project (hence the need for the entire week). I have three or four outfits from the show that I really want to skin and I plan on skinning the whole outfit (that includes shoes, wings, hats, stockings, etc.). There will be two versions for each oufit. A "runway" version - which will include the whole kit and caboodle - and a "ready-to-wear" version - which will be just the lingerie and more what a sim would wear at home.

So yup, just a little heads up on what'll be coming up in my uploading queue.

Happy Monday Everyone!

Ugh, so the lipsticks are taking a little longer than planned. For some reason I just can't be satisfied with them. I'm always changing something. But not matter what they, will be uploaded sometime this week.

I also have a new mesh planned for a few new sets of jewelry. The first set will be similar to the mesh I uploaded recently. The second set will be completely different but that's all I'm saying for now... ;)

Ciao!

Due to school and my busy schedule, I took a short break from creating but now I'm back!

I've updated with 9 new necklaces and 1 new mesh for males and females of all ages to enjoy.

Expect a new set of lipsticks soon!

Love,

I'm currently working on a set of swimsuits by Roxy and various other brands. Just in time for Spring Break! In addition I've just found some meshes that I really like and hopefully will come out with some recolor sets soon.

In other news, I just released Part 1 of my new series Positive Impact.

If you haven't already, check out the poll I've set up on my minisite (lower left). I will be using it for my future creations. Since my last creation was for teen girls, this next one will be for boys!

Today I submitted three new sets to TSR: Rocky Point, Old Navy Sleepwear Set and Lonely Girl. All for teen female.

"Rocky Point"


"Old Navy Sleepwear Set"


"Lonely Girl"


Also... for those of you who like contests...

Introducing a new opportunity for teen models...

As you may have noticed, I use only two main models when previewing my collections. And while I love Raji and Daria very much, I've decided it's time for some expansion.



PrettyBoxes is a couture and commercial modeling agency specializing in teens. For aspiring models as young as 13, this is a priceless opportunity and gateway into the modeling world.

More info here.

Of course I couldn't just leave the guys hangin'! Coming soon (within the next week) is Abercrombie Spring Preview for teen guys. Like the girls' set, there will be two new meshes based off of styles featured in the new Abercrombie spring wear.

And for those of you who are curious:


This is the first mesh and set of textures I've been working on (well I technically just started yesterday, kinda, lol). I've been wanting cargo shorts for my teen guys for a long time, so I guess this is also a personal request, hehe.

I am so giddy right now it's not even funny. If I could do so w/o disturbing the whole neighborhood I would run around screaming.

Ever since I first started submitting again in December I really really wanted a minisite. But I'd resigned myself to the fact that I'd have to work hard earning the kudos to get it. And lol, with less than 5000 I had a long way to go (you need 20000).

To other people being a Select Artist might not be that "special" but I feel really special about it. Mostly because it was one of my, albeit a secret one, goals and I actually reached it.

Yay!
