Hey everybody, as some of you know, I have been pretty disappointed on myself for the last month or so. Years ago, I use to create Sims and CC at a very high level. I was told my Sims were the best on countless occasions. That's when I developed my hatred of creating, blending, and using masks. I didn't post here or on Loverslab but I did post on another site that I am sure you most of you would know. Anyways, I got busy and had alot of real life problems and was unable to post anymore. Then I stopped playing altogether. I don't think I even created a Sim for like 2 years.
My goal with this project was to get to the top of the creation pile again. I thought it would just take and handful of originals, customs, and celebrities to get my skills back. I also thought that I would easily surpass what I use to do because of how good CC/sliders/skins/etc. are and can be now.
I know I have had some glimpses and some of you really love at least some of my work. I have been frustrated with myself as I know what I am capable of and I have had some trouble getting there. I am a perfectionist and I am only truly happy with a handful of my current Sims.
I was creating a celebrity to release for Tier 3 tonight but I was once again struggling with her. After 5 hours and deleting her twice, I had an epiphany. I located some of my old Sims and downloaded them. I was right, I am nowhere near as good as I was then, but I deconstructed them and figured out alot of things I completely forgot. I also, found some old "how to" videos I made for Youtube and it made me remember even more. I went back and created the Celebrity in around two hours and she is far better than anything I have created recently. I will be uploading her shortly. Hopefully it a sign of things to come as I can hopefully mix some old tricks and new ones to get where I want to be!
Anyways, thank you if you are still reading this rant! I do have 4 customs to do this week and was hoping to get an early start tonight. I think only two have been approved to released on Patreon. I should be able to make the dates I told you by email
