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.

There are three different ways to make a basic painting recolour: using the Photo Studio feature in SimPE, using the Wizards of SimPE application, and using the object workshop.

The Photo Studio was what I was using first, and it's the easiest, but you're limited by the templates provided and you can only do single frames (it's also crucial that you format your image to the right size beforehand, or you get a badly stretched or squished image... and the sizes listed are not always accurate). I've moved on to using Wizards of SimPE, and Photoshop for image editing, and it's a lot better.

All three tutorials are found here at MTS2.
