I meant to post this earlier, but better late than never.
jessicus took the drawing of Johnny, Ripp, and Ophelia and turned it into a painting for use in the game. It's a recolour of a Glamour Life painting (a Bella Goth themed homage to Andy Warhol), and can be found here. Thanks for making this, Jessicus! It's available for download if you want to use it in your game (and I'd love to see pics of it if you do).
Jayne: So here it is! What do you think?

Ophelia: Well, that's us. There's no denying it.

Johnny: Man, you're so sleazy looking, Ripp! It's awesome.
Ripp: Fuck... I don't really look like that, do I?

Johnny: It looks EXACTLY like you!
Ripp: Whatever, No Lips. Your nose looks like a fucking needle. *looks at Johnny's nose* Yeah, just like that! It's so accurate... well, maybe not so much the neon green skin.

Johnny: You just can't handle the truth, Ripp.
Ripp: But It's not the truth, Johnny! It's just an artistic interpretation. It's exaggerated.
Johnny: Yeah. I only wish I could get my hair to look that good.

Ripp: Yeah, I know what you mean. I do kinda wish that I could at least have a fucking adam's apple, like I do in the drawing. Sometimes it fucking sucks to be a sim. So many missing or "implied" body parts. Have you ever seen what's left when they remove the censor blur? Nothing! I spend so much time trying to get into people's pants... all for NOTHING!
I may as well just play with my own imaginary parts!

Date: 2008-03-07 11:30 am (UTC)I went to art school, so I keep a supply of those descriptions in my back pocket for occasions such as this (as well as other concepts, like "the banal", "the body", and juxtaposition). I've always liked that word (homage), and almost all the painting in the game are homages to one artist or another. Hmmm. Has anyone ever pointed out all of the connections, I wonder? It would make an interesting post for thesims2 community.
Ripp's a pretty toothy guy. *snicker* That's such a great greasy grin he gave him. Totally cheshire cat. You're so right.
