Just a post to keep track of everything I've done, what I will do, and some places I like to visit for amazing downloads/inspiration. :3

Hey everyone, I haven't been around much, or well, at all lately - and I'd like to apologize, particularly to Fanaskher, Eva and Io (and Lina!) who have been so patient with me in regards to the trades I still owe them (which I will be finishing up as soon as possible). My life has been incredibly hectic, I'm moving tonight and it was both a physical and emotional strain packing everything up. The last few weeks have not been very easy otherwise either, my mum's car got stolen last Friday and I've been running around with her to try and sort it out (unless you live in a developing country you couldn't understand how utterly depressing seeing the chaos that is my country's security system) but with no luck... it was a huge shock to my mum and she's not dealing with it so well especially since it's coupled with the fact that I won't be living with her anymore. Anyway, this is basically a drawn-out goodbye, I'll still be around and all but I highly doubt that I will be creating any time soon. I hope you're all well!

Hi guys! Gosh, I can't believe the last thing that I shared on here was in January, my goodness. I hope you've all been well! Anyway, a couple of goodies and some rather large images await under the cut!

I know I haven't been around for a while, and just thought I'd explain myself. I've got a few things going on in the real world that are taking up most of my time and energy, including school work and several personal issues that I have to deal with... which leaves pretty much no time for the majority of things I used to do for fun, including Sims. Hopefully everything will be much better by early June and I'll be back better than ever. :3
Hope everything is alright with you guys, I'll miss you all so much! <3

I've been working on this skin for absolutely ages, and I'm glad to say it's finally done!
The face has primarily bold features - prominent nose root and bulb, thick-hooded eyelids and sharp shading around the cheek hollows for strong cheekbones. Credits go to Jirka/Glance and
trappingit for the original skins I hacked apart, Rensim (I think) for the teeth, and Ephemera for the bodies (no fitness states, by the way).
I'm really pleased with how the darker colours turned out - they're definitely not seamless, but they're pretty smooth as you can see in the couple of pictures below (yay for re-importing via SimPE!), both the bodies and the faces. Using .dds files made the packages absolutely huge, but I remembered to compressorize this time, so they shouldn't take up too much space in your game.
Available in 6 colours, the bottom 3 were based off oftrappingit's fantastic colour actions, although edited a little afterwards.
And I think that's it! If you spot anything off, please let me know. Enjoy!

It's almost 5 AM, but I really want to get this up before I head off to bed, so apologies for any mistakes I may make in my rush. It's been a few months since I've posted anything over here, so time for a change! I hope you're all enjoying the holiday season, and have big plans for the new year! Anyway, moving on to the actual post:
A small set of lips, a blend of Bruno and Allure_Gal on an alpha by Pooklet. 8 colours, suitable for a wide range of skintones.
DOWNLOAD
Some natural recolours of Bruno's 'Dazzle dust' shadows, which are really lovely. They've been slightly blended with the eyelid texture off of one of Trapping's brilliant skin sets, and were designed to match a range of her tones. 8 colours; 7 natural and a bonus 'smokey eye' colour.
DOWNLOAD
A random LaPink eyebrow I found in my game, blended with... an ephemera brow, I think, I'll have to double check in the morning. Available in 7 colours. Credits go toclarejosephine for the gorgeous model.
DOWNLOAD
And finally, a retexture of Peggy #8012, which I absolutely adore. V2 of Pooklet's textures, in all of their natural colour actions as well as Io's new family. Binned and familied, but the mesh is not included because I forgot. You can get it here, from the booty.
DOWNLOAD
And that should be it, unless I'm forgetting something - if you spot something off, please do let me know!

Hey guys, I hope you are all having a fantastic day (I just had the best day ever and want to spread to joy)! I go back to school tomorrow, so unfortunately I won't be able to update as often, although I am working on some things. I'll still be active! However, this is my final school year and I want to go out with a bang, and I've also got college applications, coursework, and a whole lot of reading to catch up on - meep. Anyway, onto the actual post, featuring some absolutely gorgeous preview pictures by the fantastic cynicocratical. Both hairs come in all of Pooklet's naturals and Io's new natural colours, in V2 of Pooklet's textures with the two greys linked to Dynamite and Shrapnel. Binned and familied, both meshes are included in the .rar files.

Hello everyone! As some of you may know, clarejosephine has been experimenting with colour actions, and she sent them over for me to test. Obviously, they were absolutely gorgeous and I just couldn't wait to be able to play with them, so I've included her colours in these sets too! You can see a swatch of her new family here. Huge thanks also go to her for letting me mimic the way she retextures hair, and teaching me how to do it properly! So basically, you get Io's new naturals, and all of Pooklet's natural colours (with the two greys linked to Dynamite and Shrapnel) in V2 of Pooklet's textures. On to the goodies!
First up is Newsea's Birdy retextured, I really hope Juice and Yu continue to create for TS2 as well, and set up their new site soon! I'm so addicted to their hairs. Anyway, I removed the bow but kept the head band as it looked a bit odd without it, but recoloured it to be either black or cream depending on the hair colour. The colour shown above isclarejosephine's brown - isn't it just gorgeous? Binned and familied, and the mesh is included.
DOWNLOAD
I think I'm in love with this Peggy hair. Seriously, it's poofy and everything but it's so wavy and luscious and I want my hair to be like that! I alpha edited it a little bit to remove an annoying wispy strand and shorten the lock over the eye as removing it resulted in an awkward forehead. Binned and familied, and the mesh is included.
DOWNLOAD
And finally, the a small set of eyeshadows. I mashed together two of Ephemera's shadows and this was the result, and made a few recolours. As the alpha (also a mash of Ephemera's originals) is a bit bold, I made the colours specific to certain skintone shades as you can see in the swatch - but you're more than welcome to try them out on different shades and see what you think. Another huge thank you to Io for the lovely model in the pictures!

trappingit and I were up to no good. This is what we've been up to:
trappingit and I were up to no good. This is what we've been up to:
This whole thing happened due to the fact I always lose bets and both our tendencies to get quite carried away - we've been working at this for over a week! Now, there is a huge amount of stuff and also a lot of information! I know it may be tempting to skim through it, but please do try to read it all. There's also a fair amount of pictures too, you've been warned!

I have to run off to training, so I'll just get this up quickly. V2 of Pooklet's textures, in the style of clarejosephine , 16 natural colours with the two greys linked to Shrapnel and Dynamite. Binned and familied, mesh is included. Enjoy!

Sorry I haven't gotten round to replying to the comments on my last couple of posts - I've been a bit distracted because EEEE I LEARNED HOW TO MESH! Perky freckly thanks go to kkkayleighh , who spent hours putting up with my endless questions and provided me with so much information, resources, patience and entertainment. So, this post is dedicated to her.
First is the shiny new mesh, which is a mash-up of Kayleigh's edit of Yuxi's skinnies and the H&M swing coat thingy, hacked off of Bosie's mesh. And thanks to trappingit , it has morphs! Both fat and preg-morphs, so be sure to shoot her loads of virtual apple pie because my attempt was completely hopeless. And she made a teen conversion, too! The TF texture files are linked to the AF ones, so you'll need to have both in game for the TF ones to show up.
There are two variations, and each comes in 3 colours. I didn't want to get too carried away, so I just made some of my favourite colours - of course, you're welcome to edit these as you please! Credits for the textures go to Aikea-Guinea, Yuxi,clarejosephine , Bosie and Maxis. Err, what else? Oh, the polycount is 2760-ish (I need to check again) and it's available as both Everyday and Outerwear (thanks again to Trapping!).
And now for the less dramatic part of the entry, a very small set of natural-ish recolours of Mouseyblue's doll lip set. Here you go,morlaism !

Hi guys! Just a quick update from me, as I'm finally free! Also, I had blueberry pie for the first time ever, and even though it was a frozen one that came in a box, it was so ridiculously yummy that it's worth mentioning. Uh, anyway, V1 of Pooklet's textures, in all of their natural colour actions, and the two greys for elders are linked to Dynamite and Shrapnel for the sake of bin neatness, as usual. I've also run them through the compressorizer so your downloads folder doesn't whine too much. :3
First up, an alpha edit of Ren/SimCribbling's Hair N09 by Salix Tree (who I presume is the creator from Parsimonious, but I can't find the original file). My goodness this one took forever - so many groups, such odd mapping, but I really like how it turned out. New favourite hair, anyone?

Binned and Familied - Ages Teen-Elder - Mesh by Ren is included
DOWNLOAD
Next, Raon's latest free hair alpha-edited to remove the bow. Isn't this hair just adorable? I'm definitely going to start wearing my hair like this. Anyway, it's actually a rather bad retexture on my part, due to the way the tips are mapped and my inability to warp things in photoshop properly, but it (hopefully!) isn't too noticeable.

In other news, I've had this idea for a story circling around my head for a while, and thinking of finally going through with it. It would be set in Zahara (and other similarly exotic places), and would have a fantasy/adventure sort of theme, with some romance and robots thrown in for good measure - would anyone be interested in reading that? ^^

Inspired the game Enchanted Arms, I've created various neighbourhoods based on different locations in the game. This one is based on a place called Junk City: a thriving desert city crawling with valuable 'junk' - the remains of powerful magical machines, thousands of years old. This is quickly becoming my favourite place in the game, and I just had to show off my pride and joy: the Temple of Zah'rain.
It comes with a long story, which I'll type up tomorrow morning if anyone is interested. Also, the pictures are quite obviously photoshopped, I figured it wouldn't do much harm since it's not a download, and I had fun too! :D
A big thank you to Yuxi, Maron and Blooming for being such huge inspirations - if it wasn't for their absolutely stunning pictures I would never have been inspired to decorate, even though I've been wanting to do so for such a long time.
