From the simblr ask game: #6 (current fav cc creator) and #7 (how do you create your sims in cas?)
Tysm for the ask dear!! <3
6. Current favorite CC creator?
Oh man... I use SO much CC, guys. Like. So much. So as for my current overall favorite, I'm actually not sure?? It would probably be easier to pick by category... I'd say @simstrouble is my favorite hair creator!
7. How do you create/style your sims in CAS?
It takes me AGES. Since I make a metric fuckton of sims, I usually pick a color (or a palette) for their wardrobe to be. This obviously isn't how people work in real life lmao but I'm lazy and it adds a level of cohesiveness that I like! (Though when I'm making existing characters/my own OCs, I don't do this, since I know the characters better and can feel out their vibe easier)
Then I try to feel out their vibe for what kind of outfits they like. I usually give them 1 outfit per category plus an extra sleepwear that acts as underwear, and sometimes a wedding outfit if they're single and I wanna plan ahead. If they're a legacy sim, they might get 3-5 outfits per category.
But outfits always come last - I always start by removing their hair and then editing their features. Then I put on skin details, THEN their hair, then eyelashes, and makeup usually happens while I'm making the outfit.
I ALWAYS use chisami's blush (skin detail version) to add texture and warmth to their faces, and I always give them nails and toenails (even if they're natural/not painted) because the empty space bothers me lol. For guys, always body hair too.
Man, I could keep going because my process is actually more in depth than I realized, but I'll stop here lol
Thanks again for the ask!! :D
