Because I'm procrastinating again, and also because some time ago a sweetseal asked if I was still playing Sims. Well I am still, and I love taking pictures of them because sometimes the funniest things happen. Also, they have very interesting expressions!
Here I invite you take a peep into the weird fantastic and sometimes soap-opera world of my Sims. :) I have so many pictures that I can't choose, so this is going to be a series. Today's spotlight - the young Scofields. (Click on pics for full-sized images)
He looks familiar, no? This is because I made my own Sim according to Wentworth Miller's face! xP He's one of the first Sims I made. I've stopped making them already cos' it's so time-consuming. If you remember I mentioned that there is a website for Simmers (yeah that's what they call people who play Sims) to exchange customs Sims, clothes and other items. I made a search on Wentworth Miller and found that those available didn't really look like him afterall! So I decided to make my own. I made this guy as a teenager so that he could be the boyfriend of that girl beside him. At that time there was somewhat a dearth of cute guys in town, haha.
I think he can be improved on though, and I tried to do that last time but the more I fiddled with his face the weirder and uglier-looking he got so I gave up! I've realised that what looks good in the flesh doesn't always look good in a Sim! So here you are, the closest I could get. He's called Michael Scofied btw, hurhurhur. There's a Lincoln Burrows too, who's his stepbrother and has red hair and looks nothing like Linc...yes I took a lot of creative license. :D
Oh, he's wearing a SWAT uniform. Nice right? His lifelong aspiration is to be Captain Hero (hohoho) and to get there you have to start from being a lowly police officer. I think his wife is so incredibly pretty! I didn't make her, she came as one of the pre-loaded Sims in the game, except that she was only a child then. Her clothes and earrings are downloaded. In fact, almost all my Sims' clothes are downloaded because those in the game mostly aren't very nice! And I think this pic looks like it could be in an ad for SAF, if she was also in uniform and the backdrop was different. Lol...I can't remember what they were doing standing around in their bedroom (they're married now) conveniently posing.
I saved this one as "Michael in ya face" - hehe. There is nothing wrong with his complexion, it's just the compression Blogger made on my image lah. His eye colour is custom-made as well, because the normal green eye colour is much darker than this. This is a rare image because I am seldom able to manipulate the camera (in the game) to get so close to a face! And that thingy behind him is a diaper changing table - his first baby was recently born when I took this picture.
Michael is unhappy with his stench after returning from a hard day at work. Teeheeehee
Lucy wears a shifty eyed expression while listening to her MP3 player. A little history about Lucy: she was an only child when the game started. Her mom looked like she was black but her dad was white (There is no mention of any race in the Sims, only skin colour). Like I said, her family came pre-loaded in the game, so it wasn't like I was trying to make a female equivalent of Miller (if you don't already know, the real-life Miler's parents are of contrasting colours as well)! But yeah, that was partly why I made Michael Scofield her boyfriend, because of their supposedly similar backgrounds...
Anyway, her mom passed away one night after a woohoo session with her dad. I don't know why also, she just tumbled out of bed and collapsed! I think maybe she was sick and I didn't realise it and made them try for a baby. :X At that time, I didn't know that you could plead with the Grim Reaper for a loved one not to die, so the poor woman just passed away, just like that. Of course her father has since remarried and gone on to spawn many offsprings - his lifelong aspiration is to see six of his children get married! Dotz. FYI, he has ten kids now including those of his new wife's. See I got him to marry this lady (also pre-loaded) whose husband had just passed away leaving her with two kids and an unborn child in her belly. I just had to put those two together!
Oh yeah, before Lucy's mom passed away, she had an affair with the neighbourhood slut...that was never found out because she passed away soon after that. Like I said, the world of my Sims is weird, fantastic and soap-operatic! Sometimes even slightly twisted :P
Michael telling a dirty joke to one of his friends. This is an earlier picture, taken when he was still a lowly police officer and his wife Lucy was still pregnant. I just thought he looked really funny...
Michael passed out on the sidewalk after a day at work. Hurhur. In real life, this would have been really dangerous because of the possibility of concussions and other fall-related injuries, not the mention having your legs run over. But in Simland, all they suffer is a drop in comfort.
Something went wrong with Lucy's fingers when I made her strike a 'peace' pose for the camera! Of course, no harm done. These glitches sometimes happen in the game and it's funny when they do. Could be partly due to all the custom stuff I've downloaded into it and the cheats I use... xP Anyway, Maxis (the game producer) does upload free patches on the website to counter these things, which I think is really very good! :D
Burnt burgers don't taste very good, no? Lol. This is their kitchen-cum-dining room. I furnished it myself! :D
This pretty lady over here is one of Lucy's good friends, called Laci. She was an adopted child as well. Incidently, she's the daughter of my Esther and Wentworth Miller Sims xP. If you're confused already, nevermind, I'll explain in another post. Laci wasn't exactly a very good-looking child so I was pleasantly surprised when she blossomed into a beauty! Er, she's actually being tickled by Lucy in this picture. Sims enjoy tickling each other a lot.
Baby Phoebe is born after three days of pregnancy! I don't have a good pic of Phoebs as a baby for some reason. Sim babies are all really adorable, even if they all look the same except with different eye, skin and eyebrow colours.
It's really cute how they interact with their kids :)
Phoebs as a toddler. Haha...they randomly distribute various features of the parent, and it doesn't always add up to an attractive package. Sims with very contoured and structured faces, especially, tend to have children who look a bit weird. However, nothing that a bit of makeup and even cosmetic surgery won't fix. xP
Phoebs: Mummy, what's that you're having? Lucy: It's coffee, darling. Once you become a teenager, you can start having it.
Lol of course they didn't say that...and Lucy is in her swimsuit not underwear! Although they do have a funny habit of walking around at home in their underwear even when people are visiting. They can even talk to strangers in their underwear! After playing Sims for a while you kind of get used to seeing them in various states of undress...
Phoebe's chest exploded into a great ball of multi-coloured light at her birthday party... (Actually, this is just what they do everytime they transition to different stages of their life)
Phoebs as a teen! She turned out quite alright afterall eh?

SO CUTE! WHEN ARE YOU GONNA UPLOAD YOUR SIMS??? Hahahaha!
