Trying out Body Shop

On "vacation" leave for a week. I didn't feel like playing Sims2 and I've given up trying to get past the "Cash Flow" level of Outpost Kaloki. Being the lazy person that I am, instead of cleaning my room I decided to tinker with the Sims2 Body Shop.

I've tried doing something with it before but never got around to finishing anything ... as making a house in the game is easier than customizing a sim. I challenged myself to creating an approximation of the gown that the Encantadia character Danaya wears in the promo picture on the website.

Ergo, I spent most of yesterday in front of my PC going back and forth between layering in Adobe Photoshop, looking at the downloaded picture of Danaya, and refreshing the Sims2 Bodyshop viewpane.

I liked what I did and tried making Danaya's warrior outfit too ... final product wasn't bad ... although to begin with I can't find a mesh that's near enough... and nope, I don't like to hazard making my game crash by downloading a customized mesh.

Just realized my BBS ranking is "Stammering Sim". Wonder when that happened? Guess I've earned enough creds though I don't hang out at the forum as often as I wish (can only access it at home as it's one of the sites blocked by the office server).
