Hey, Swann, how are you? About the creators ask game: pick 10 random questions of your choice. Thank you :-)
Thanks for the ask!!!
Since I am super indecisive, I used a random number generator lmao.
7: Thoughts on free content, donations, or paywalled CC?
Anti paywalls, anti early access even if EA says it's ok. Donations are fine, of course. Commissions are fine if they are reasonably priced (no, your one swatch recolor isn't worth 10 bucks if you just slapped another's artwork on a shirt). Honestly, I started charging for commissions because I was a broke student and didn't wanna beg, but if whatever the person is asking would only take 5 minutes, I'd be willing to do it for free.
32: A tutorial that made you up your game!
@zeussim's whole Youtube channel. I am not a tutorial person. I usually learn by trial and error (let's be real, a loooooot of error). But these are GOOD, couldn't recommend them enough. especially the ones on textures, if you make recolors like I do.
16: List some creators that always inspire you with their creations and talent!
@syboubou, @ice-creamforbreakfast, @simandy, zeussim whom I tagged above... there must be others but my brain refuses to think more.
12: CASt and fully customizable/recolorable content, or color/style swatches?
Never played sims 3 (which had a color wheel I think) so I am fine with swatches... as long as there is a decent number of them. Why would you go through the hassle of making a mesh for it to only have 2 swatches? I will never understand.
45: Do you post WIPs, or show your creations to anybody before posting them?
Sometimes I share them with my discord friends (simmers or not). It's fun showing the process to non simmers!
I have made one tutorial on youtube (very bad quality because I used a laptop microphone, also it's an hour long) which covers most techniques I use while recoloring, though.
This post is too long, will answer the rest in a part two (I hate scrolling past long posts so I won't inflict it upon you)
