Strangetown extras: Johnny, Ripp and Ophelia artwork - available as an in-game painting

[strangetomato]

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!

Okay my dialogue is nowhere near as good as yours, but I d/l the picture and here's a few snapshots. It looks great in-game!!!




Jill (who is engaged to Ripp in my game): Hmmm... I dunno, Ripp. I think it looks like you.



Ripp: What the hell are you talking about, Jill? Where's my chest hair?




Johnny: Chest hair isn't everything, Ripp. I think the picture looks awesome.

Ripp: You only don't have chest hair because AllenABQ didn't make chest hair for aliens, Johnny.




Ripp: Come on... doesn't it look great? Admit it...




Ophelia: Enough about the chest hair, Ripp!




Ripp: Can you believe that, Jill? Ophelia doesn't want to hear about my chest hair!



Johnny: Heym, what's up with your wallpaper, Ripp? It looks like my shirt!

Ripp: You mean your shirt looks like my wallpaper! Well, at least it's better than that other thing you wear.



Johnny: Oh, you mean this? This totally showcases my ass. Ta-da!

Ripp (sighing at Ophelia): I can't believe you married him.

Awesome. :D

I love how Jill is framing it up with her "art hands". *snicker* I want to install Free Time so badly, and that pretentious move is one of the big reasons why. Love it.

I have to voice my love of Ripp's chest hair (and, of course, he leaves his shirt open to SHOW it! Oh Ripp...). I do enjoy body hair on a man, and I hope they give us some options for it (like with the varying degrees of stubble) in Sims 3. I can't picture it on Johnny though. Maybe it's just me, but I imagine that the aliens just aren't hairy at all, just smooth and green. They're just a different kind of animal in my mind.

Now that you've mentioned it, I'm actually surprised that my SO didn't add some chest hair poking out of the collar. He usually does draw that in (draw what you know, and all).

Yeah, Johnny, I agree. That is a pretty rockin' ass! ;) Does your Johnny do ballet? The idea doesn't entirely surprise me.

Thanks for sharing! It's fun to see your versions of them. (And interesting to see how you paired them up too.)

Jill and Ripp are together in my game too. *secret shipper smile* :D

There's nothing secret about the fact that you ship those two. ;)
