Fantastic issue! Gorgeous visuals and great story--plus they work so well together!
@CathyTea it's always great to see a happy reader. lol I'm glad you appreciate the unique cover I gave this issue- I was originally gonna put it on her "story" page and it was supposed to be a sketch made by Veronica(they met in her story) but I found the cover too plain so I switched images around.
Also, it's great that you love the story. I feel like I'm making the images just to have an excuse to put those in. XD
Very cute! This reminds me of the long nights I used to spend in the university newspaper office doing last minute editing before the printers. HNGHHH THE STRESS. I can't even begin to guess how much effort you put into these on top of whatever else you have going on with your life.

Yeah, it can get a bit tough making the issues because I was blessed with the graveyard shift where I work. lol
I'm not sure if I remember all the details closely enough to be able to catch the exact change that you made, but I did reread his whole story, and I love it! He's so funny--so oblivious to Bella and his interviewer's ploys! I really like the guy. It will be neat to see how this develops in your future stories!

Thanks! I also did a rewrite on his "main" backstory. Did you notice the change? lol

I don't remember all the details of the earlier one well enough to notice the change! I really like this one, and I love the way his character's developing.
Before I continue I would like to give thanks to the awesome pose makers in TS3! Without them this issue would not have been possible or at the very least extremely hard to make. lol
Want something to read? Well I got good news! The newest issue of my magazine to be exact!
This is something fairly different from the others so it might be weird to some. Instead of an interview you'll be getting a bunch of journal entries chronicling how a David found Bella Goth. I think out of all the recent issues this is probably the one I put most work into. Also, I highly recommend getting snack or something before you start. This issue is a LONG read. Notice how my magazines are just three images? This issue has SIX.
That's double the usual images!

I hope you guys enjoy my version of what happened to Bella Goth!
Wow! This is so awesome. My eyes are too tired to read tonight, so I will return after a good night's sleep and read it tomorrow. But I can't believe how gorgeous the layout is! I'm glad you went with that cover. I'm so looking forward to reading this tomorrow morning with a cup of coffee!
Your work is amazing. I love this idea and how you put it all together. It must take so much work. It looks like an actual magazine my Sim would read. Heck, I would subscribe to this in real life. You are incredible! Great job!
I had a chance to read it today! Really great story. I love the way you tell it: with the movie and the credits to Landgraab studios, the timeline (my favorite element!), and the journal entries. It's so rich! What's neat is that each of these elements implies so much more happening in the background and helps to create such an illusion of reality. It's visually beautiful, too!

@rorygilmore I would be honored to have you as a subscriber in that event. lol

@CathyTea thanks! I'm glad you noticed the little world building I do in the issues. I thought it added to the "realness" of the magazine. And the timeline is my favorite as well. XD
@DavidMCSessy I know that site! I didn't know you work on it! Those layouts are pro jobs.

In other things, I've done some proofreading on the journal excerpts. I'm sure there's some stuff I missed but at least now my work won't look so janky. lol
@Wasting_Night I love your Sim mags. And you only use a little photoshop and the in game camera!!? WOW very impressive!! You my friend are very talented! Love them!

@Penguinwa101 thank you! And yes, I only use the in-game camera and Photoshop to make the issues. Although for the latest one I used the pose player heavily to get the right shots.
Also, I hope you'll update your Simford Royals legacy soon. I gave your thread a peek and it's great so far!
I have some slightly improved versions of the older issues with small adjustments there mainly on the formatting department. Anyways, if you're not too busy check it out!
*Also the images look blurry because they're loading. Just give them time.
I hope you guys drop by her site and check the interview along with her other awesome content out. She also has A TON of great stories there so bring a few snacks because you'll be stuck there a while!
