      Looks awesome, Horsey! There's a really rough patch under her right (Our left) eyebrow which is kind of strange though :)

      Pose in the image is new and will be uploaded later on Simagination.
      It's a hover pose, so pretty much only useful for fantasy photos. But still pretty cool. It'll only be view-able & downloadable to the members though.

      - Minimal Body Contouring, Shading, & Highlighting.
      - Full Head of Hair Drawn From Bald Sim.

      Well, there it is, my first hairstyle drawn with my new graphics tablet! Not bad considering it felt like I was using my left hand the entire time (I'm right handed, it's just hard to get used to).

      Amazingly, it took me not even 1/3 of the time it takes when drawing with a mouse. I can't imagine how quick it'll be when I get used to it!

      yes, I see a few flaws, but I was just wingin' it anyway. My next one will be a lot better. :D:D

      I hope you guys like!

      EDIT: A bit better a bit improved.

      @Mystic, she looks like a DOLL, I would kill to have a doll that actually looked like that too! Awesome job :mrgreen:

      @horsey, that's really interesting -- people used to do face plastering and it would look so....off. This is, like, Face Plastering Master Class lol. That's really something...I couldn't even tell what you had done at first, it's so detailed and carefully crafted. Wow...I could never do that lol.

      @Evie, let's mind meld so that I can learn to do that and be as kyooool as you, I'm being serious here! And the second picture you posted, <333 I love seeing hair drawing featuring curly hair.

      @Meep, Hahaaaaa cooooooool! That's eerily similar to an idea I have for my Inspiration assignment picture, something I've been wanting to try. That's so cool, with the white lines and everything. How the heck long did it take to make??

      Thanks Cel! You're too sweet. :)
      I agree, curly hair is the best to see on Sims. But it is definitely hard to achieve. I'll get it perfected some day. :P

      Your photos have gotten a bazillion times better since I left the community and came back. I'm not saying your older photos were bad, but seeing your work now, my jaw practically hits the floor Horsey. You've improved so much, just in that short amount of time too. I'm in no way as good as Jillie, Nims, or Harlee. But I must admit, seeing my name up there with theirs is quite flattering lol!

      I think it looks good!
      I would add some shine, and some longer fly-aways to complete it. :)

      Great work though, I can't do blondes for some reason, I'm way better and brunettes. :P

      Nims, love the shading and hairdrawing! Is that Damian/ Drake in the front? More importantly is it sad that I can recognize him from the back? :lol:

      Newest!
      This was for the pinup challenge.
      I was going to add flyaways, but I figured it looked best this way since it was mean to be a pin up style photo. (Perfect Woman)

      How in the world did you get her dress to fit so perfectly?
      I tried using images for clothing in the past but they always ended up looking wonky.

      Beautiful pic :)

      aww, thanks. Well, I went hunting through many wedding dresses. Then, once I've found one, I go in-game and use a pose that is similar to the model in the dress. Then, I put my model nude on a white background, take the pic, and put it into gimp. I cut the dress off the model and paste it onto my model. With a lot of resizing and cuting and rotating, I managed to make it fit, and that's about it. one hour and thirty minutes minimum I think.

      I'll have to give it a go after judging on Inspiration. Maybe I'll actually get it right now that I've improved a tad on editing. :P

      ahaha yes, yes it is! Damian to be precise (apart from with a rather pirate style ponytail) and I think it's awesome you know a Blake brother from behind, they would be very pleased xD

      Nims I love the little ponytail, it's little details that really add to the photo :P

      Sweet you edited on that wedding dress perfectly, and you matched to sims saturation to the background really well! The only thing I would say is add some shadow- without it you can kind of tell she's pasted on. I'm so jealous of how you cut her out :shock: , I can never get it right!

      Evie ...Wow! The hair drawing you posted at Unbound was great, but this is probably the best hair drawing I've ever seen! I actually thought it was real hair you'd edited on at first, it's so good! So jealous... And that skin shading is awesome!

      I've had to drop from all my competitions due to game issues -.- . I've got it all fixed now, but decided I'm gonna take break from modelling, just for a month or so, until LBB cycle 3 starts up. SO I'm just gonna be practising my editing for a while- it would be great if I could get lots of critique!

      Thanks! I was way too lazy to make fly-aways, lol...For some reason, I find it easiest to make blond hairs.
