So I've been sort of tearing through Body Shop projects since my last post, some old and pre-planned, some 'well, I have all the
pieces, I might as well.'
What's my Where-Can-I-Find, first, though:
So I was making some witchy stuff. (Also normal colors, but a lot of the normal-colors on those particular meshes are actually by Skell. ... And I rearranged BINX numbers so the AL-pinned witch stuff always goes good-neutral-wicked-red.) Which is
mostly a personal project, but if there's interest I'll share it? I'm kind of having fun with the idea of an Official Mage College or something, because I have
just enough coordinate-y clothes to justify it. And
anyway I have questions, as google has failed me and I just want to shove things around in Photoshop.
1. Anybody know where to find any wizardly
robes for men, ideally using the AL ambodywitch coat as a base? I have three options for TF-EF (Skell's ambodywitch conversions, K8's Fairywitch, and Skell's Celtic Makeover), but only two for TM-EM. I dig the Comfortable and Dashing options for the classic coat, but I'm hoping for Stately, too. (Honestly most of what I like about the Maxis witch aesthetic is color scheme and coat-thingies.)
2. Has Yuxi's Traveller's Robe (the shorter coat with the thigh-high boots) been converted for kids? Or is there anything for this kind of fantastical wizard kid? Again, I've got two for girls, one for boys, and the boys' option is basically gender-neutral.
3. Are there any more toddler-specific witchy meshes out there? Fairywitch and afbodywitch are... probably too much in the lacings-and-boots department for the littlest rugrats, but... toddlers. Toddlers all dressed up like their parents for no good reason other than cute.
4. I know Trapping converted the AL wizard's hat for all ages, but there's a corresponding Sims 2 Store hair called uhhh.... I forget but it's on the redheaded guy on the bottom right
here. Has that been done for all ages? The guy hair isn't just a bun, so it's tricky to say 'oh yeah no he just changed his hairstyle.' (I did Digi's all-ages accessory hat in Neder's Red Mage, but it looks best with bigger hairs, you know?)
... So, yeah, effectively I am looking for Apartment Life style witchy accoutrements, mostly for menfolk and kids.
( Teasers for upcoming downloads behind the cut! )Also, I am tinkering with the idea of, like, mesh kits? Resource packs? Like:
"Here's a director's cut of useful Medieval meshes in case you want to convert them to other ages, genders, or bodyshapes, or if you just want a mesh starter pack."
"Here are some meshes with Interesting Sleeves but historically-inadequate bodies, and some bodies they'd work well on, and/or some period portraiture or images of reconstructed garments showing how said sleeves COULD be used."
"Here are some meshes that are
almost Medieval shoes and some images of the shoes they remind me of, plus some pantsless bottoms/FantasyRogue's chausses they could be stitched onto."
"Here is a Volatile texture, a Time Bomb texture, and some select guides for various parts you might want in different colors, stack the .pngs and make your own recolors of my stuff the easy way!"
"Here is a text file with the texture-referencing info for all 82 colors of that thing I uploaded; if you find/make it for another age, gender, or bodyshape, you can just copypasta!"
"Here are some hairs or outfits that have Pieces that deserve to be accessories, or accessories that are
almost Medieval but need a couple of little tweaks, or some meshes (that are probably from TSM) that would be much more useful if the clothes and attached accessories were separated."
"Here is a collection of full-body tunics that would make great separates."
Useful? Weird? Convenient for inspiration? (I may have already put together a mesh kit for Things What Custom Bodyshapes Need.)
