Reading Fire and Blood on an 8 hour plane ride. Perhaps I’ll become obsessed and make sims when I get back.

FYI going to be away from my computer for most of the month (excluding a few days in the middle of the month), so the few posts I have will likely be scheduled. Won't have internet access the last week of May.

Ellach in 3rd Age Lindon + Beleriand Styles.
Lindon has more flowy styles due to the warm temperatures and influence of other elven cultures. Ellach wears plenty of Feanorian stars and blue to represent her heritage as both Gil-galad's daughter and a member of the House of Feanor.
Beleriand has more modest styles, with embroidery and less bright colors. The 4th outfit depicts early 2nd age Lindon, when veils became popular with Maeglin (Gil-galad) wearing them to hide his identity. The red wasn't worn by any elves other than the Feanorians, most of the ones living in Lindon at the time being Elrond's people. Traditional Noldor braids were typically worn, with jewelry and other adornments.

I knew little about this option and used it only once. But recently I decided to study it and it turned out that it is very convenient: you can immediately see the result of your work without using BS or a game. At the same time, unlike specialized software, I do not need to learn a new interface, and all the usual brushes and functions are available
#i use this to convert brows and makeup from ts4 to ts3 and it's very helpful#just found out about the filling uvs with texture though so that will be very helpful for clothing recolors#i use a different version of photoshop though so idk if it will work

Hey everyone it seems there a malicious individual trying to hack the sims cc community again and fill it with malware you need to stay vigilant as a creator and a downloader so
i have some tips for both to stay safe while downloading:
1- sims cc file extension is always .Package never download anything that is .exe
2- do not auto unpack zip files and rar files into your mods folder directly, open each zip or rar individually check the file extensions and drag them to your mods folder one by one
3- the only mods that have a .ts4script extension are ones that affect gameplay or how the game works, understand that if you are downloading cas or bb items you shouldn't have a .ts4script file
4- if you are downloading gameplay mods that do have .ts4script make sure that A) the creator hasn't announced on their pages that its infected B) you are downloading from a link provided by the creator of the mods themselves not something off of google or a link you got sent and make sure dates of upload match dated of announcements
5- if the mod or cc creator has retired and hasn't posted for a while LOOK AT THE DATES OF THE UPLOAD if it has been "updated recently" after the creator has left the community its most likely re-uploaded by a hacker and infected
6- download mod gaurd by Twisted mexi and keep it updated and keep your windows defender or malware detector Program up to date and always running do not disable it
7- make sure everything you download comes from a direct link from the cc creator, in this day and age do not trust link shortners, adfly, linkverse, etc get the universal bypass extension and ublock extension to stay safe but genuinely NEVER CLICK ON THOSE no matter how much the creator reassures you its safe it. is. NOT.
8- this is more of a general saftey precaution but, create a system restore point weekly before you run the game with new mods that way if anything happens you could have a chance to restore your windows to an earlier date before you downloaded anything.
9- BACK UP YOUR SHIT im serious right now either weekly or monthly put your files somewhere safe like a usb a storage card a hard drive even an online cloud if you dont have any of the previous.
10- files you should back up are your media from games and media everything else, any mods, games saves, work files, passwords, saved bookmarks, any documents txt files word files pdfs, links you saved, brushes or actions for Photoshop if you have any, any digital bills or certificates if you have any, and keep a physical list of all programs you have installed and where you installed them from
11- turn on any 2 factor authentication and security measures for any account you have
12- google and firefox have the option to check your paswords and emails against any data leaks USE THIS FEATURE and change any leaked passwords
13- regularly check your logged in sessions to make sure all the logged in devices or computers are yours and log out any that aren't and any old devices or unused sessions do this for every website and app you have an account on if available
14- change your passwords often. I know this is a hassle i know its hard to come up with new passwords but changing your passwords every few months will help you against anything mention previously that wasn't detected.
15- and as a cc creator check your cc and the accounts you host cc on and its uplaod and update dates make sure nothing has been changed without your permission :(
16- generally try not to get swept up in the "i must get it" fever you do not need to "shop" for mods weekly or monthly you do not need to download everything by that one creator you do not need to download new cc everytime you want to make a sim, im guilty of this so i know how hard it is to resist but take a breath and think "do i want this or do i need it" before downloading.
These are prevention methods i cant claim they are 100% will prevent any hacking but its better to be safe than sorry and these do keep you safe so
Brought to you by someone who has had their laptop ruined and data leaked from downloading cc once upon a time

The Sims 4: Fëanor, Caranthir, Curufin
I was supposed to do my take on the three generations of the House of Fëanor in TS4 to visualise my fics, but the game crashed and glitched out on me so many times that I ended up just rage-quitting and going with whatever pictures I managed to take.
Idk if I'll ever get to uploading the sims themselves to the Gallery any time soon as my game is currently half-broken, I'm not using a gaming laptop (currently in the process of getting one though), and I am so tired of starting and restarting this little bitch. It might be a while before I can complete this whole set.
Have Fëanor, Caranthir, and Curufin for the time being.
[click pictures for better quality]
[In order: Fëanor, Caranthir, Curufin]
I had Valinor!Fëanorians in mind while making this. I might consider making them during the years in ME later on when I'm motivated; God willing.
A lot of the clothing and jewellery I used came from extension packs. For the CC; most of the mods I used were by oydis, Simstrouble, and Obscurus.
.°˖✧ Fëanor
The first elf I created, and probably my favourite. I made him the shortest in the family; wish y'all could see how ridiculous he looked next to his sons (especially Maedhros) because they got me giggling like a dumbass. This was when I realised that I'd also been making my dream man along the way. Genius, passionate, stubborn, family-oriented, and hot (literally).
.
.°˖✧ Caranthir
[ayo why does the middle pic lowkey look like Tyler the Creator's mugshot] For some reason, Caranthir reads as a gold and pearls kinda guy for me. Idk why that is; it's just the image I have of him in my head lol. Also, he's slightly redder (flushed) than what's shown in the pic; idk why the blush isn't showing up in the screenshot :P it's a base game blush—covering the entirety of the cheeks along with a bit of the temple area, with the brightness and opacity set around only 20% down.
.
.°˖✧ Curufin
The earlier version of Curufin I made was an odder version of his father. Idk how to explain this. It'd been like looking at a distorted version of Fëanor. There was a family resemblance, but it was so fucking uncanny that it creeped me out. I had to alter the sim again (the one you see now) 'cause it was that bad.
BONUS #1: a mansion (first floor)
Lmfao I wanted to make Mindon Eldaliéva on the 64x64 lot in Brindleton Bay, but got so bored that I instead settled on a mansion. Was inspired by Moorish architecture and used corresponding build items to make the residence. This is the only picture I have of the damn thing )): I'm kinda sad about it because the lot/landscape itself has the elements of a star fort. The tiling also has eight-pointed stars, as you can see, and if you squint, in the very middle there's a star-shaped fountain. Don't mind the odd shape of the pool; I ran out of ideas then.
BONUS #2: Melkor
Debated on giving him black or white hair, as I'm a fan of the interpretation of him being an albino (just to show him being the representation of extremes in nature); but ultimately went for the popular look he has in the fandom. I also thought of giving him tattoos and longer hair, but for some reason, I thought that would suit Mairon more.

TS4 Lord of the Rings Recolor Dump!
I decided to try recoloring again using existing sims 2 textures. Somehow it worked out okay, despite the layout being quite different. Credit to miien and sherabhim for the textures.
A few notable issues: Refugee looks strange with breast sliders. Will probably redo this one someday. Refugee and Shieldmaiden don't line up perfectly on the shoulder areas. Requiem has some texture issues (shown), same as the original mesh, but looks better when using HQ mod.
Meshes: Refugee, (Shieldmaiden is included), Hope, Requiem

Remusirion Bzip Eyes as Defaults + Obscurus Arwen Brows
Original eyes HERE and eyebrows HERE.
TS3 contact conversion HERE
I would not recommend using pupil sliders, as the catchlights are on the eye texture and move with it. I use the aWT eye mesh (simskin) for no added catchlights, as pictured above. The bright colors make the eyes look like they're glowing, which I think is super cool. Other than that, the eyes and brows are completely recolorable, and I haven't found any issues so far. Do let me know if you find any.
