Aikea you never cease to amaze. Great set, Thank you! A bit off topic: Should you be reading this, i've been trying to find a way to contact you, I know you don't do requests however... I used your animation paintings for TS2 RELIGIOUSLY and wanted to maybe crack the code and do something similar for TS3 considering i'm a storyteller. Would you mind walking me through the technicalities or approving such a thing? If so (or if you're already working on it) Could you let me know? Or let me know a good means to contact you? GoS? Club Crimsyn? Thanks for reading!
>Apparently I'm the only one who thinks this is kind of lame :/ Looks like she robbed a Hot Topic.
No, you're not alone. It's not my taste either. It's well done though, textures and everything. The violin is lovely but I will wait for an expansion that makes use of new instruments before downloading clutter.
The hair is nice, but in my game it gives that weird shine which most of Man's hairstyles suffer from. If the skin tone is light, it's no problem, but darker sims look silly with this.
Oh...so that's what it is...the shine! I thought it was just me! I have been working on a Sim and placed the hair...didn't pay much attention until I went to apply makeup and noticed her face looked oily. She was a darker Sim...I lightened and sure enough the shine didn't look so bad. I LOVE the hair...I guess I will just have to be more selective as to whom wears it. Back on topic...this creator is awesome!! I am amazed at how talented many of these creators are...stunning work!!!
Yeah, I see the problem with the face shine. Haven't played my Pirate Queen yet cause I haven't built her home yet, but the shine is getting to me a bit. Dang, I hope she shows well in the game cause this is the sim I wanted to play for WA.
To the person who asked about shine on AikeaGuinea's other hairs:
I haven't ever experienced this with any other hair style by this creator. That leads me to believe it *may* have been intentional as part of the overall look they were going for with this sim.
Since I'm not Aikea, I can't say that for sure though. I just know it's never been an issue with their content before.
should i know who this emily autumn is? lol *prepares to be shunned..* doesnt ring a bell but i love EVERYTHING about the sim and post. the hair is wicked its about time you did more stuff for girls! lol =p but i really appreciate it all ive been stingy with my space and not DL alot but im DEFF. gettin this! *skips to download
okay so for all othr ppl who dont know who in the world she is..shes some sort of gothic type/industrial VIOLIN player! lol like she does vocals for her band but thats the intstrument she plays the weirdest and most unheard of thing ever imo since evanesence came out with a piano anyways they did a good likeness of here shes looks like that makeup and all her clothes are a circus of crazyness id be cool if aikea made more of it i actually like the style even tho some of her stuff is trashy. i listened to her song liar to see what the big deal is and im still deciding on whether i like it. i more into the punk/screamo/rock scene with the likes of AFI NIN SOAD etc

Yikes! So sorry about the facial shine issue; I had no idea my hairs were doing that. (Partly because on the one other hair I noticed the problem on [Nouk dreads conversion] it didn't seem quite as bad in-game, so I thought it was more a CAS issue.) Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix it, but I'm looking into the problem right now. I'll update the files ASAP once I find a fix. And for the record, the make up does look great on dark-skinned sims. ^_^
To the anon asking about pulling animations, at this point I have no idea how one would go about doing that in TS3. I did some digging around on the Chaos Mod painting, and got scared off.
Annihilation, when you align any faces in Milkshape, you want to make sure you only have either the front or back sides selected at one time, otherwise you end up with dark splotches.
OMG I'm about to have a heart attack.
ReplyDeleteWow o.o That's all pretty good, imo.
ReplyDeletelove those boots! love everything about this post!
ReplyDeleteSo cute~
ReplyDeleteLove the lipstick! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd everything else of course.
*runs and hides* My gifts will never match up to Aikea Guinea's gifts. Regretting signing up now. :P
ReplyDeleteOMG wow...so happy to see some more of this type of style starting to come out for TS3...my neighborhood is finally going to be way more interesting!!
ReplyDeleteWOW. :D <3
ReplyDeleteI can't stand Emilie Autumn, but the items that come with the sim are nice.

ReplyDeleteApparently I'm the only one who thinks this is kind of lame :/ Looks like she robbed a Hot Topic.
ReplyDeleteSo frakkin' cool, AG! Off to nab them now. :)

Damn, you're good at what you do, AG!
ReplyDeletewow!! love it all!!!
ReplyDeleteAikea Guinea, I love you. Please, feel free to take all my internets. - A-
ReplyDeletei love the hair! ill take the corset and lipstick too, excellent for my weird girls
ReplyDeleteDoes the hair and makeup download with the girl?
ReplyDeletelove it!
ReplyDelete..hmm, what's up with all the "comments closed" notice for some of the other sim posts?...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS SO MUCH!
ReplyDeleteI want everything. Particularly the hair, the violins and the sheet music.
Hot Damn!!! I have been waiting on that hairdo.
ReplyDeleteHave I told you how much I appreciate and love you Aikea? I do, I really, really do!
I got to go play with the new stuff! I got my Christmas presents.
The hair is nice, but in my game it gives that weird shine which most of Man's hairstyles suffer from. If the skin tone is light, it's no problem, but darker sims look silly with this.
ReplyDeleteI hate to say it but most CC isn't made with dark skinned Sims in mind. *sigh*
ReplyDelete^^ unfortunately...
ReplyDeleteDo her other hairs have that shine effect?
ReplyDeleteOh...so that's what it is...the shine! I thought it was just me! I have been working on a Sim and placed the hair...didn't pay much attention until I went to apply makeup and noticed her face looked oily. She was a darker Sim...I lightened and sure enough the shine didn't look so bad. I LOVE the hair...I guess I will just have to be more selective as to whom wears it.
