Strangetown extras: Another painting recolour

So, I recoloured another painting, and I tried one of the poster formats this time. I even put some text on the poster, using this great simlish font by SIMale on MTS2. To show off the results, I've put together a little scene with Johnny and Ripp.







Ripp: So where is this present, Johnny?

Johnny: It's in your bedroom.

Ripp: I can't believe you bought me a present. Is it because I did the dishes?




Johnny: Now, don't get too excited, okay? It's nothing that great.

Ripp: Just show me, already!




Johnny: Okay. Here it is!

Ripp: Oh my god! It's awesome! Where did you get this?




Johnny: I just saw it at SimMart. Check out the cheesy lens flare!

Ripp: Check out the rockin' bodies! Fuck, they're hot. So which one would you choose?

Johnny: For what?

Ripp: You're fucking kidding me, right?

Johnny: Oh... right. Well, the one on the left -

Ripp: Angela.

Johnny: Okay, Angela. She seems nice.




Ripp: So you'd do her?

Johnny: Yeah, I guess so. I don't know. I mean, it's completely hypothetical. I have a girlfriend, and why would either of them want to sleep with me, anyway? They're famous actresses! And I don't even know them. What if we had nothing in common?

Ripp: That's so not the point of this game. You're not picking out your future wife, Johnny! You're just supposed to decide which one you want to bump uglies with.

Johnny: Okay, then which one would you pick? I guess you'll have to take the other one -

Ripp: Lilith.

Johnny: Right... Lilith. You'll have to take her, if I already picked Angela.




Ripp: This isn't like picking teams for sports, Johnny. I can pick the same one.

Johnny: Well, that's convenient.

Ripp: What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

Johnny: Nothing. Just convenient... like, I could drop her off with you after we were finished our date.

Ripp: Who says you'd get first crack at her?

Johnny: Ripp, I'm not taking a "crack" at anyone, okay?

Ripp: Besides, why would I pick just one of them, when they come as a sweet matching set?

Johnny: Wasn't that the point of the game?




Ripp: Thanks for the present, John! You're the llama's ass!

Very cool.

You're really making me want to try doing this. But first I'm going to whip out the artists reward objects. gotaluvsims2 recommends it for "family photos".

Awesome. Great poster (I love that Lilith looks like she's ready to kill) and funny dialog. I kept reading meaning into the dialog too *grin*

You doing this makes me want to do it too! And that font is awesome.
I laughed at this: "Nothing. Just convenient... like, I could drop her off with you after we were finished our date." Because once again, our latest updates mention something similar. :P

I love it! Love the scene with Johnny and Ripp too. I've said before, I think you "speak" for the sims so much better than I do. I mean, I really hear their personalities coming out in your diologue, where I don't always with mine (my sims tend to just talk like... me... lol!)

Anyway the poster looks awesome! Great job!

I just noticed that out of the three comments on this so far, two look like they have Ripp in their icons. :D I need to upload a pic of Vampire!Ripp from my story to use as mine. :P

Awww! What an awesome poster! And I liked the "text" too, because it looks "Simlish", but at the same time I can "read" it!

And the scene is fantastic! Hee Hee! Johnny can be so literal sometimes, right? :)

This is really awesome! I love it! By chance, are you offering the poster for download? *insert face with puppy eyes here*

It's funny how Johnny chose Angela. I knew that would be his choice before he indicated so to Ripp. He just seems like an "Angela" type of guy. I should add though, in my game, Angela's the wild child, and Lilith is the angel. *shrug* Appearances are deceiving, I guess.

Not sure what to think of llama's asses though.

Loved that. And the poster looks professionally done, like an in-game poster, it's amazing! Plus now I SO want Ripp to meet them. I mean something wild has to happen there, right? Somehow Ripp is destined to come face to face with one or both, or maybe he could take a trip to the set of their show or something. That could be hilarious. ;)

Hah! The poster actually says something. I thought it was one of those symbol fonts, like Wingdings. The poster is great!

Ripp: This isn't like picking teams for sports, Johnny. I can pick the same one.

I couldn't help but laugh when I read that!

You just can't stop now, can ya? It's really cute though, and the whole convo was hilari-ass!

You're the llama's ass!

I didn't realize this was a compliment.....

Nice!

I'm so jealous. I've tried making it and I can't! *whine, whine* Stupid grayed out screen. :(

Great job on the poster.

What if we had nothing in common?

*LOL*

Sweet innocent Johnny *smiles* Great looking poster and funny dialog - Ripp and Johnny are so wonderful together :)

LOOOL!

This is SO great! I wonder what would happen if Ripp ever got the chance to meet the two girls!

I always enjoy your extras!! The poster is great. I love doing recolors of the artwork. It really has become addictive since I've gotten an artist in my own storyline. Anyway, yours always look so good and add the perfect ambience to the story that you're telling.

*giggles madly over the conversation* XD
Very cool. :D

Oh man... That's just hilarious! Is Angela wearing any makeup in the pic?

EEEK! I NEED that poster. :D I love the Pleasant twins! :D And I love that the Simlish can be read almost. SO awesome. :D

Aww! Johnny's innocence is just too cute!! Awesome poster too!
