ā | 30s | ā | INFJ | 4w5 | š Here to show off my pixel doll collection. Slowly putting together a historical-vintage-retro save. WCIF-friendly though you've probably seen it all before.
Taking a posting break for a little while. Iāll be around-ish so asks and messages will be answered should they come in, tag games and memes probably not. l8r dayz bbs āļø

Thank you to @thesimsblues for the tag!
On top, the first; on the bottom, the last. I periodically delete posts and donāt have access to the real first picture I posted this year so you get the second picture I posted instead. I made my most recent edits out of boredom and not to share, but here they are because I am doing this meme lol
I tag everyone who hasnāt done this and for whom it is not yet 2021 :)
Fav not basic male outfits pls!! Idk what this means exactly either so feel free to interpret as you will (can be just items that you feel make a guy look not so basic?)
I have totally cheated for this ask and given you ten options, in part because I wasnāt sure if you wanted non-basic full body outfits that are ready to go -or- if you wanted non-basic outfits created with individual pieces.
Either way, here are some of what my own guys are wearing lately. The silhouettes are basic but these looks definitely stand out from the usual polos, t-shirts, and jeans options. Some of these outfits look better on different body types but Iāve come too far to switch models now! If this response is not what you had in mind, let me know and I can try again.
Full Body Outfits:
Outfit 1 : Only my fave male outfit of all time nbd | Shoes - Get Famous
Outfit 2 : Suit [TSR] | Shoes - Base Game | Sunglasses (Evox Sun Head)
Outfit 3 : Outfit | Shoes | Hat
Outfit 4 :Ā Outfit | Shoes - Eco | Glasses
Outfit 5 : Outfit [TSR] | Shoes | Sunglasses -Seasons
I intended an acc. shirt under this but none of mine worked (color transfer, no full skin coverage, etc.) Maybe you can find something better than what I have, if you want.
Individual Pieces:
Outfit 1 : Button-down | Acc. T-shirt | Jeans (Brad - Denim) | Shoes - Base Game | Sunglasses | Necklace | Rings - Get Famous
Outfit 2 : Top & coat | Pants - City Living | Shoes - Get Famous | Necklace [TSR]
Outfit 3 : Turtleneck & blazer | Shorts (Nathan - Solids) | Socks | Shoes - Get to Work | Hat | Ring - Base Game
Outfit 4 : Suit Top | Jeans (Skinny II) | Shoes (Sport) | Glasses | Ring (Jefe)
Outfit 5 : Top (Message me) | Pants | Shoes [TSR] | Sunglasses (Evox Sun Head)
All other socks--not visible--are just Base Game ones.
I hope this is what you wanted--or is helpful, anyway! Thank you for this ask :)
Iāve got cozy sweaters on the brain lately as I am in dire need of my own. I went into CAS and... my sims are sweater-poor too! They have cute fitted sweaters but ones to wrap up and nap in? Almost nothing! This is not good.
Anyway, I do have some faves. Two are even appropriately seasonal, which is a happy coincidence.
Long Cardigan | Snowman Sweater [TSR] | Tiny Living (top right) | Wool Cardigan | Christmas Sweater with Turtleneck
Love your sims!! Top five male skin details for the ask game?
Thank you for the kind words, anon #1!
I donāt have any details that I only use on my males but the ones youāll see below are ones I often use on my males, in some combination. Iāve combined a few details here so youāre getting ten total to answer both asks. Some of the links contain various different merged details, all of which I love.
Male Pic 1, with no details, is here for comparison purposes.
Male Pic 2 : Sorceress Skinblend [message me] | Booboo Blush | Face & Body Moles | Mole (Hong)
Male Pic 3 : Lemonade Skinblend | Cheek Hollow (Trevor)
Female Pic 1 : Freckles | Moles | So Sweet Dimples (also in Male Pic 2)
Female Pic 2 : Forehead Crease (Elijah)
I just really love moles.
Iād be remiss if I didnāt give honorary mentions to Luumiaās Body Hair v5, Cabsimās Female Body Hair, and Reticulateās Softy Bonus Bush. Theyāre not technically details since theyāre in the tattoo category but theyāre essential to my game. Rarely does any YA+ sim of mine go without body hair!
Please list 5 facts about your favorite sim, and send this to 10 people whose sims you adore! ā¤
Thank you for tagging me! š
Itās about time I did this for my favorite gal, Marion
+She is 100% a night owl. She gets her second wind around 11:30p, likes to go to bed around 4:00a, and if left to her own devices would sleep until noon every day.
+Her favorite color is yellow, but her signature color is red. 99% of her outfits incorporate at least a little bit of red, she mostly wears red lipstick, and her nails are always red, too.
+Growing up she wanted to be an illustrator. She didnāt end up doing that but she still draws, paints, etc., and her artistic ability is her most natural talent.
+She is a bubble-bath-aholic. Sheād end every day with one if time allowed. A bath, some candles, a glass of Soft Shadow Avornalino~ forget it.
+In every save Iāve played with her, in every version sheās ābeen,ā she has always exhibited two consistent autonomous behaviors: she bakes something at least once a day; and, when it comes to romance, she doesnāt mess around. She makes the first move, sheās very flirty, and sheās very forward.
tbh Iām pretty happy with EA eyebrows (!) but a.) I didnāt want to take screenshots of the brow grid or say, fifth one three down~ and b.) I do have a lot of cc brows I like, so...
Examples are by column; I wanted to show the same brows on two different male/female brow/head shapes. Some choices look better than others...
How could you make me pick from among all categories?!
I ~managed. Forgive this hideous collage:
Hat | Earrings | Hosiery Collection | Watch/Bracelet | Eyelashes - I didnāt want to count the lashes; theyāre only accessories because of the slot(s) they take up. This is why there are six accessories in the pics.
Notes:
a.) Seven accessories if you count these nails. An honorable mention to them because I love, I love;Ā
b.) The rings--a yellow pear-shaped diamond engagement ring with diamond encrusted band + a plain wedding band--were made special for me (and Marion lol) by the one and only @faaeish and are not available to download. I donāt want to be a tease showing them off, but I had to put them here because they are my favorite accessories for obvious reasons!
So many to choose from and yet my taste remains basic classic~
Base Game | Carter v.2 | Turtleneck [simsdom] | Half Zip Mock Neck Sweater | Fur Suede Jacket
(Full disclosure: I have another male clothing ask coming and saved some of my favorite tops for that. Iām kind of having my cake and eating it too.)
i absolutely love your sims, i've never seen anyone create such interesting characters as you!! im sorry if I just can't find it and you've already meantioned it, but would you mind sharing the cc sliders you use?
First off, thank you so much for the compliment. You are too kind!
As to the sliders, my crutches, where all my ātalentā comes from... so, this is what I currently have in my folders. Iāve screenshotted and combined them into one image for you:
Under the dotted line are the ones for the body; everything else--as you can tell--is for the face. I opted not to link them all here but if youāre looking for something and need a hand let me know and Iāll dig around for you.
So, I donāt always use all of these sliders simultaneously. Sometimes Iām just testing new ones to see how they work, or Iām adding and subtracting to see what Iām missing/donāt need. A few of them donāt seem to do much of anything or donāt have as big an impact as I hoped and so they end up getting removed. I can see a few in this screenshot that will likely be removed the next time I cull my mods. But right now this is everything I have.
Can I choose top sliders? Hmmm. When it comes to the face, I'm least willing to part with the Obscurus ones (and of those, Iām least willing to part with the nose sliders); hi-landās Thicc King & Queen (which gives more flesh under the jaw line); and Vibrant Pixelās chin slider, which allows for making a cleft chin without a dimple skin detail. For the body, I consider HFOās torso and hips height and shoulders slider essential. As to picking more for the body, itās too tough a call because so many of them are so subtle.
More makeovers, I say. More makeovers! Once again, I took three early sims of mine and fixed them up a bit. These three are side characters in my non-sims story, which I tell you because I know you care. In order from the top down: Lainie, Andy, and Oona. Andy and Oona are married and their similar genetics are supposed to be unsettling to those who know them. They are not related, even secretly; theyāre just weird/narcissistic.
More under the cut, if you like words.
Lainie is a wannabe writer/comedian with a big personality whether happy, sad, mad, etc. She has the ātoughā walk. She does not bend to trends. She does not mind her peach fuzz and if you do thatās your problem, pal. Despite being loud and prone to silliness thereās something warm, stable, and earthy about her which makes her irresistible/adorable/magnetic. She's a wonderful friend. She routinely punches well above her weight romantically. I really liked how she turned out when I was new to the TS4 sculpting system but as her character evolved out of game she needed a change. How do I feel about the new version? I donāt mean to be dramatic but I AM OBSESSED.
(If you look just to the side of her face her hair and then the whole image appears to be moving and itās making me sick tbh!)
Andy is a smarmy late night talk show host, all fake cheer and a smile that never reaches his eyes unless heās ramping up the bullshit laughter. In his original sim version, I made him an adult; dropping him down to YA was my first makeover move. We can argue about whatās young, whatās middle aged, etc., but for the purposes of my gameplay and the ridiculously long life span I use, I consider the Young Adult stage to last through age forty (whatever thatĀ āisā for a sim) and Andy as a character isnāt quite forty yet, so a YA he gets to be. The rest of his features needed a major overhaul because they are bad; and, Andy is supposed to be a combination of elfish, boyish, and smarmy, and then suddenly youāre like..wait, is he (kind of) cute? And then you shake it off, because heās obnoxious wtf. Iām a bit sorry to lose his original nose as an isolated feature, mostly because Iāve tried to recreate it for other sims and can't do it despite much time spent trying and even knowing which preset I used. Youād think I only just yanked it up, pulled it here, squeezed it there, but... I donāt know, I donāt know what I did.
Oona, Andyās wife, is supposed to look like a bit like a Picasso portrait come to life. I didnāt pull this off, and if I say I did, then the first version is a better representation of that descriptor. Letās compare profiles:
On the left: a moon from a childrenās book; on the right: not.
Anyway, the more I look at her the less pleased I am. She might make a reappearance in another round of makeovers with a third version I can better accept.
