JLU Sims Progress #1
Jun. 22nd, 2012 03:10 pmI decided to do Fire as my first JLU Sim, since I hadn't seen one until I went hunting through Synaptic Sim's Member Forum today. D'oh.
It's okay. I'm neurotic and want to do it myself.
To prove that I am actually working on her, I took some in-progress shots. Making Sims is difficult when you have a toddler and an infant, since I'm either keeping my son from throwing things in the toilet or holding on to my 20 lbs. 5-month old. It's incredibly difficult to draw with a pad this way. Surfing the 'net? Yeah, I only need one hand for that. Using Photoshop? Both hands, please.
I started out compiling outifts from a Black Canary Sim I got from Insimenator and one of Synaptic's Batgirls, but I've just started painting over everything myself because...did I mention I'm neurotic? And I already want to do an alternate outfit based on an H&M mesh too, and I haven't even finished the really really basic outfit. I'm so lame.
Really easy outfit. I'm doing the JLU cartoon version and I've already spent a day on it. I'm rather proud of it so far with my hand painting and all.
Her face is pretty well done. I'm sure I'll change my mind because I made it first. Also, I retextured Newsea's Night Bloom with Nymphy's curl mesh and LOVED IT HARDCORE, so I'll probably get distracted and make an entire Pooklet set for that. Actually, I will do that. It's too pretty not to.
Oh, and I downloaded Pyxis' Venice skins earlier this week and WOW are they gorgeous. I make pretty Sims, but with her skin blends they are drop dead gorgeous. See what I mean?
I'll probably make her hair more turquoise than this, but I haven't decided that fully yet. Earrings and headband to come. But she's beautiful, no? And note the pretty hair texture...
So yes. Just a brief update. This is going to take forever.
