The Pain, the Sorrow😭

My graphics tablet pen is completely broken (like, shattered beyond repair and I don't know how it happened) and AU$150 to replace it seems unfathomable at this time. So unfortunately CC creation is off the cards for me until further notice, friends.

I may just share other Sims related content, like what my mischievous little virtual beings get up to during gameplay. Or maybe I'll share builds etc for a while. Who knows.

Please oh please, modders! MAKE THIS HAPPEN. I've desperately wanted a Tattoo Artist career/business function in Sims 2 for so long now. It's literally the only reason I play Sims 3, and even then tattooing in ts3 is janky af. I'm praying to the Mod Gods that someone out there can achieve this 😳🙏🏻

ok but hear me out........ the upcoming ts4 pack with the tattoo table......

that converted for ts2, but functional..... same animations as the bv massage table (+ the tattoo gun accessory attached to the artist-sim's hand??? they don't even need to be properly holding it imo, just having the accessory there would be cool i think). the client changes into undies instead of towel, loses comfort/energy(/hunger/hygiene? lmao) and gains fun and maybe social too? so the table advertises for those. change appearance dialog comes up (in the case of facial tattoos) but otherwise tattoos are still applied with overlays as usual (oh to have a 'buy clothes'-style dialog window for tats...... 😢). the tattoo artist gains creativity skill + arts&crafts enthusiasm as they work. custom memory for the client sim if it's their first tattoo (or a repeatable one could be cool too?) 🤔🤔🤔 functional tattoo table.....

I've started a separate blog for my Dollmaking stuff ⬇️⬇️

L'Rae Rose Dollmaker

If you've been following along Xella's journey and enjoy seeing more doll content, I will be sharing behind the scenes insights into my doll making processes - especially my fully hand-stitched '0% electricity' dolls.

Me: "...next CC release in progress!"

~~~~~~

Also me: takes on 4 sims CC projects, 3 books and several new handmade product lines all in the span of a month...

Xella makes a great workshop assistant!

It looks like somebody decided to help me out with cutting and organising all of her 'clones', ready for stuffing and assembly.

She's doing such a good job, although I wonder if she's expecting to get paid or not😅

..::Blades Sister::..

Oblivion was sooo ahead of it's time, damn.

Anyway I just started a new save since my last one had pretty much exhausted all quest lines and was getting boring. So this is Raaen, a Breton (again)...meaning that every single character in the game (except for wood elves) towers over her lol. She dresses cute thanks to mods, and was born under the Shadow. She's a custom class, 'Ghost'...which is basically all about sneaking and charming her way through situations, with a few other added attributes that I can't remember for the life of me.

I was flicking through random folders on my laptop recently and found my older gaming photography from my last save and thought I should probably make Raaen strike a pose for the camera too.

[lraerosesims]

I'm really liking this so far...

Next Project Underway...Opinions wanted!

I'm thinking of releasing a mini 'collection' next, instead of just one outfit. Maybe just one colour version of each, but all outfits cohesive and matching in a sense.

L'Rae Rose is on Ko-fi!

Sul Sul, Hi, Hello, Greetings!

I've decided to open up a Ko-fi Store, where I will gradually list my Handmade Products, and have enabled Donations regarding my Sims Custom Content. My CC will always remain free to everyone, this is just here for anyone who wishes to show an extra bit of appreciation. It also helps me keep L'Rae Rose Sims running, as living off-grid means I have limited access to electricity - I rely on a generator to run my devices used to make CC, which can get pretty expensive.

Click the link or site preview below to:

Donate or Browse Shop

So if you're interested in seeing what goes on over there (the Shop is still inactive while I work on listings - it'll be active very soon) then feel free to check it out! In the future I will potentially open up commissions there as well - for certain Handmade Products.

I'm making progress on the 'listing' pictures for the Harlow Jumpsuit...

but I can hear the generator running low on fuel so I won't be able to upload in time tonight before my power cuts off😭😭 damn you, off-grid living!!!

But I'm so excited with how it's all turning out that I just had to share these a little early.

I decided on 8 colour variants - more than I usually do. Let me know which colour is your favourite!

Playing around with the colour varients for the Harlow Jumpsuit...

'Harlow' Jumpsuit (AF) Coming soon...//ts2cc//

[lraerosesims]

Well would ya look at that! L'Rae is actually working on CC again lol.

Since I don't have regular electricity connected to my new place after moving, I can only sit down at the laptop whenever I have the generator running - which often leaves me in the predicament of deciding if I should make CC, or just have fun playing Sims...usually Sims wins!

But!! Tonight I'm making more progress on the Harlow Jumpsuit that has been sitting in my projects folder for ages. It also takes me such a long time to actually complete an outfit, since my work is entirely hand-painted. However a member of The Sims 2 Facebook group (@concret3stainss here on Tumblr <3) tagged me in a post she made, showing a Sim wearing my Lilithia Harness outfit, and said they were patiently waiting for more of my work...so I guess I better kick myself in the butt and make more stuff!

So anyway, I'm still alive...just living off-grid. Therefore this mountain dwelling witch will keep you guys all updated as I manage to finally share this outfit.

hi there i just found your blog and i’m so happy there’s someone making new goth cc for the sims 2!!!! exactly what i was looking for so i’m really excited! love your stuff and cant wait to use everything in my game and see what you make next <3333

Hey hey!! I'm sorry for not responding sooner, I recently moved and am not online as often as I used to be 😅 I'm so glad you like my creations, and I do apologise that I don't have more to post just yet. Once I figure out a better schedule here at home (I only have limited access to electricity right now so running my laptop isn't a super frequent thing) I'll get back into finishing the half-done CC I've got sitting in the To-Do pile🤣🤣

Thanks for tagging along for the ride!!
