Strangetown Extras: Worthington Portraits

[strangetomato]

I've been shooting some family portraits to make into painting recolours, so I thought I'd share one of the ones I've done so far. I think it came out pretty well.









They're standing in order of age, from back left to front right: Lillian, Edie, Charlotte, and Frances.

I like how easy it is to compare their genetics when they're side by side like this. As you can see, Edie's the only one who avoided their mother's non-chin.

I'm going to need a lot of these to decorate my new Worthington mansion, which I'll post about later (I'm really coveting Mansion and Garden stuff right now, but I'm supposed to wait for Santa to bring it). I'm doing some wedding portraits, and a couple of family group photos, and some baby stuff.

Frances is so cute as a kid (and as a young adult, actually)! Great pic!

I really need to get around to doing some stuff like this for my hood. The only reason I haven't is because I'm so lazy.

Thanks. Frances has one of the more interesting Maxis facial designs, I think, and all the proof I need against the use and abuse of Face One. He's way cuter than Face One, in my opinion.

It does take a bit of time and effort (and entering, exiting, and reentering the game, which I find annoying), but it adds such a nice little touch. Making custom stuff is little sewing your own clothes for your dolls, or building your toys a bed out of the plastic tomato tray (or, in this case, drawing something to put on the dollhouse wall, I guess). I tend to get really sucked into doing this stuff, once I get started.
