2010.06-07 - Retro/Pinup oh my!

[moryrie]

I have a sim as well. I'm rather proud of myself for not using as much CC as last time. She should not require any expansions, but will require the latest patch (for makeup opacity and a few of the patterns.) I am also fairly certain I did not use any of my custom sliders, though I have them all installed. If this causes an issue, I apologize.

Freesites:
Aikea's multifoiled default eyes, and default faces.
Oepu's Default Body
Daluved1 Beauty Marks 'Brow'
Subaxi 'Apple Lip Gloss'
Escand's 'i-Shadow' Sclera Mask
'Papercat's Cat Liner'
Cigarettes by Manssims3blog are included as they are no longer available for download.

Everyday Top
Everyday Pants
Formal (Note: May require Awesomemod to appear correctly as people who run EA store are lazy and did not mark this dress for YA, only Adults.)
Athletic

This is Katherine (Kat) Roberts. She fancies herself to be one of the Beats. Her talents include writing poetry, and looking completely disinterested no matter what the circumstances are. She also likes to pretend to be French. Usually without success.

Her parents saved money for years to send her to college, hoping she would find a husband there. Unfortunately, Kat was more interested in Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsburg, and Jean Cocteau than in any of the male students her parents would find acceptable. She is by nature a pessimist, and hates how her family attempts to mimic one of those terrible, happy, fake TV shows they always watch, when the Soviets will likely drop that bomb any day now. Everyone knows it.  There's even at least one song on the radio lately brave enough to mention it. And the only use she can see in marrying as her parents wish her to, is if he is rich. And preferably about to die. She also spends more time drinking coffee, smoking, and occasionally reciting some of her own poetry at jazz clubs than even contemplating studying. She fails to see the point.

Though of course, she is smart enough to keep her parents from finding out.

She even occasionally acts as if she doesn't abhor the sun when visiting them, so they won't catch on to anything, though they always comment on how gaunt she looks and how she should eat more.

As the preview indicates, this is a set of four of Shannanigan's meshes from TS2, converted: three variations of the beautyshop heads and a retro purse. All four meshes are castable. NOTE: The textures on the heads isn't the greatest, but I still like how they turned out and they should work well for your retro homes/salons/etc. The planter head can be found under "Plants", while the rest of the objects will be found under "Misc Decor". Enjoy!

 Hello, I do not make posts very often but I could not miss this theme! I have had her lying around in my sims game for a while, didn't really know what to do with her but I knew that I wanted to share her. She is not the most unique girl but she looks gorgeous in retro. Anyway, here are some pics of my rockabilly/pinup girl with retro nuances, Erin. Please, tell me if you would like me to upload her






I had to at least share pics of her with you guys, but once again if you want an upload I can do that too

[skullbaby]

I'm for uploading

[Delirium]

RyoReznor :please upload she's awesome!

[fravio]

[RyoReznor]

  Here she is, Erin my petite stylist pinup! I included 2 different versions of her depending on whether or not you have ambitions. I am new to uploading and I am not sure how this works so Erin 1 has items from ambition in her outfits and Erin2 has nothing from ambitions on her what so ever. I hope you guys have fun abusing her Also, I am terribly curious to see what you do with her...

Here is what you will be getting...

Erin2 with nothing from ambitions


Erin1 with no ea store items but hair and dress are from ambitions

I'm still working on my house for this theme.

Ryoreznor: oh my gosh, where did you get the green leopard top with the tie in the middle?

[aikea-guinea]

rachelnmusil, WCIF belong in the WCIF section only, as clearly outlined in our rules.  Consider this a warning.

Sorry about that.
