Strangetown extras: Transitions
Since I know that I could use a good laugh right now, I thought I would share these funny transition photos with you. Sure, I could save them for outtakes, and avoid breaking up chapter twenty two, but you know what? I'm going to do it anyway. Why not?
One day, I will transition into an outfit that is so cool that it will hurt your eyes...
Let's make a contest out of it, shall we?
Round One
Verdict: Not too bad. I would award Ophelia the prize for the best outfit, since it seems character appropriate as well as tasteful. Sorry Ripp. That's a great blazer (and you really do clean up well), but you blew it on the "staying in character" part of this challenge. Johnny gets bonus points for awesomeness and matching (I think that's a two-piece outfit, right?), but again... try to stick to character, J (or is that in character? I'm not entirely convinced that he wouldn't wear that). And Jayne, as much as I don't buy into things like "blue and green should never be seen", I have to tell you that those two colours do not go together AT ALL. And the turquoise track pants with heels have yet to convince me of their right to exist.
Round Two
Verdict: *snort* At least Johnny can take Cruella De Vil, aka Jayne, to the gala in fine style. (Jayne also got new hair for this shoot, thanks to the return of an annoying hair mesh issue, which required me to delete my hair download folder again.) Ophelia gets some credit for choosing a dress, which I can definitely see her wearing, but the pink seems a bit too girly (don't go crazy, Phi). Ripp somehow managed to win this round, since he seemed to pull that look off pretty well, even though he is not actually an intrepid explorer who owns his own small plane.
Round Three
Verdict: Put on some clothes! (Love the expressions in this pic. *snort*)
That's better (though I did enjoy the leopard print shorts, Ripp).
Verdict: Wait, this really isn't better. I appreciate that Ophelia is not afraid to make a bold colour statement, and there's nothing exactly wrong with her outfit, but there's nothing really right about it either. It's kinda bland. Kinda soccer mom. Johnny is just all over the map with these transitions! But he isn't convincing me with this attempt to look badass. Sure, Johnny, sure. And Ripp seems half right - the top half. But cargo pants in military green? I don't think so. So, the winner is... nobody.
Well, my mood has improved considerably. *snicker* This makes me look forward to the day that they actually do transition to adult. So many bad outfits to pick from... it's like Russian roulette for clothing.
Hmmm, I wonder why I was age transitioning them with InSIM? Only time will tell... *wink*
The next part of chapter twenty two should arrive sometime this week, but I'm feeling extremely unmotivated right now, so we'll see how it goes. Part of the reason is that it is now three parts instead of two, and the rest of the reason boils down to the fact that it's February, which is never my best month.

I know that last line about seeing things and feelings has to do with you know who, since it's all I talk about! Why torment me?! WHY?!
no subject
And teasing you a little might help to motivate me, since you get so into it! :D
I thought you might like some things to ponder while I try to finish the next part.
no subject
You know what's going to happen, and now you're just playing games with me!! *begins to sob* Just don't hurt poor little Frances, that's all I ask!
And "something else" could mean anything! There are going to be so many people there, I can't even fathom what may happen! My mind hurts just trying to think about it......owwwww
*head explodes*

I would never really hurt Frances, and you know it. Nothing he couldn't come back from, anyway.

I prefer to think of it as "building suspense".
