Ashton Legacy: Chapter 3.1 Update!

2011-06-19T15:17:00.000-05:00

New Update!

Spam of Pictures

2011-06-12T14:07:00.000-05:00

I haven't really been on here in like forever. So I thought I'd spam you with a bit of edited pictures. I'm thinking after I'm finished with the two contests I'm in, I'm going to go back to playing the game (shocking I know!) and put some more updates on my stories. I know I'm pretty excited to see how April/Joe babies turn out! I bet they'll be adorable! Plus we'll get to see some more adventure from the twins. One has become quite the hunk (I didn't see it coming AT ALL)

My favorite model at the moment..

And of course I will end this off with my favorite of all time..

Just letting you all know, right now I've been told that there's a precautionary evacuation in place for my area. We're getting lots of rain this week, and just in case the city wants to make sure people are safe. Technically I don't have to leave my house yet, and I really don't want to leave it just yet. We'll be setting up and I'm taking my pets to a different location.

There might be a time that I will have to leave too. So I will try my best to give you a little shout out if I have to move. But if there's a long pause with out me, that's what have happened to me.

UPDATE:

I have to evacuate by 8pm tonight. They are shutting off hydro in my area. So I'm not sure when I will be back. The next time I have internet access I'll let you know how things are going/went.

Bye for now guys! *hugs*

2011-04-17T16:04:00.000-05:00

So I tried my hands at making Custom Poses. It seems to be a lot easier then I thought it would be. It's very much like Simpose or Poser. Here's my first pose. A couple of bugs/errors but a pretty good go at it. Sometime I'll make a pose set.

You were the witness, you be the judge.I don't question you, your honor. I did it for Love.

2011-03-07T17:54:00.000-06:00

Something I've been working on today..
Tried a new way of shading. I'm not sure which I prefer. This one seemed to take less time, but I feel it's a little less nice. Ha

((Just noticed the edges are a little choppy with some small white bits in the full. But when it's small you can't really notice.))

What I did
=============

+ Pose Combined
+ Smoothed/Shaded Skin
+ Did Eye make up (check the full to see close up)
+ Changed bracelet colour to silver
+ Drew sheer robe
+ Drew Hair
+ Used colour balance/curve on hair and sim
+ Made background in game/ added
+ Fiddled with the colours some more
+ Made shadow

Spin on Little Red Riding Hood - Jolee

2011-02-07T12:44:00.000-06:00

Woo Another picture of my beautiful Jolee (which if you haven't you can download her on this blog). Since she is a coward I thought even though she is "modeling" I should keep her character in each shot. It will be an extra challenge, for each round. A little goal for me. Honestly, when I got the idea I was soo stoked to do this, then the first draft of it .. I was like.. yeessh :-/ I reaaally should stop now before I embarrass myself. But then I fiddled with the lighting, and BAM, instant fav!

"Looking up at the distant horizon, Jolee dreaded the walk that would soon follow. But she knew she must reach her grandmother in time. With a sense of purpose on her shoulders she took her first step on the forest floor. The crunch of leaves and twigs, reminded her that the forest was nothing but a dead place, for nothing that goes in usually makes it out. It was no more a bright, cheerful place she use to visit when she was a kid. Where the forest would echo with laughter. Ever since a dark presence took over the forest realm, everything withered, and died. The sky above was nothing but a constant storm, free of all birds, for they would not fly near a hundred yards of this place. Jolee entered further into the darkening forest, on her way to her grandmother's house. The further she went in the more the trees entombed her. If she didn't know the trail before, she would have easily gotten lost. After she passed the small creek, she could feel the skeleton branches brush up against her. She knew the worst of her walk was yet to come. A cold fog crept up her legs, leaving an ever lasting feeling of deaths claws wrapping around her. Her breathing quickened as she felt the cold presence lurking in the shadows. Stalking her every move. But she dared not stop, nor turn back and run home. If she is to save her grandmother she must keep moving. After hearing a soft but viscous growl come from the bushes to the right of her, she could not keep herself calm any longer. With a burst of adrenalin, her legs kicked it into high gear, as she ran down the trail, branches scratching, and trying to grip her for their keeper. Tears running down her face from both fear, and pain, she prayed to the good spirits her legs would be fast enough."

In the Eyes of a Child -- Adeyle

2011-01-25T22:36:00.002-06:00

What's this? Another wonderfully edited picture? Yupp. I'm on a roll! This time we have a picture of the ever youthful Adeyle Ashton (check her out at my 'legacy' blog. If you don't know whom I'm talking about.)

As a few of my friends pointed out, this picture is the reason why Devin loves her so much <33

Adeyle is an excitable woman, with the eyes of a child. She always sees a unique twist on the world around her, and is always finding things to to be in awe of. Lime represents the birth stone of a Leo, which are youthful, and light hearted people.

Jolee an Angel? I think so..

2011-01-22T20:27:00.001-06:00

*click here for original size

Yeah I've been spamming this baby everywhere, but whatev I'm pretty proud of it. I use to be big into the whole sim modeling seen, back in my sims 2 days. But once sims3 rollled around I left it, and just played the game. Which don't get me wrong, is so much fun. But I've totally missed doing edited pictures, and being around people who enjoys doing them as well.

So since I have a million things on my plate right now, (and for some reason, I keep adding more) You'll see a variety of stuff from me. Being either creations, more story updates, or now edited pictures.

BTW, I have updated some more updates of my lovely Ashton family, so go check them out. And I hope to have either the rest of the family up for download, or all the updates up. OR even both if you're lucky.

Anyways, Enjoy the view<33

3 Ashtons up for Grabs

2011-01-18T19:27:00.000-06:00

If you want to wander over to my Ashton Legacy blog, you'll be able to grab some of the family members. As of right now, I only have Devin (EA makeover), Adeyle, and April.

Yeah I know that Adeyle and April look the same. But that's not my fault. All kids are completely EAs doing.

Enjoy! And be nice to my babies.

Tank Your Time Teen-Adult FIXED

2011-01-15T22:27:00.000-06:00

As the title indicates, I had a little booboo on the mesh for Tank Your Time, which had the faces showing. (Thanks to my friend Mura for noticing!!) I accidently had the auto smooth clicked on in Milkshape. But by the time I figured this out my Milkshape expired.

( 'Boobo' Pictures from Mura)

So I have a full version of Milkshape now, and was able to fix the problem. I'm really sorry for the inconvenience guys! I hope you will download this copy so you can have this shirt in your game.

**I have left the file name the same. So it should completely write over the existing file!

Story Blog

2011-01-10T14:10:00.000-06:00

If you've noticed that cute little banner at the top, you'll be aware, that I am now having my favorite sim familys story up on their own blog!

The blog will have all their stories, that I have done so far, and the ones that I will be doing later on. So far I am focused on generation 2, but generation 3 has already accumulated a few. Even though I say "legacy" a lot with it, it is NOT an actual legacy challenge. It's more of screenshots during playing the game, and some captions. Lately it has grown into more of a story, and that's where I plan on taking it.

I have no real intentions of taking this to 10 generations or anything. Pretty much how far it goes, depends on if it's still fun for me. I will have little character bios of the main "cast", and little blurbs I'm going to call character IDs for the supporting roles.

I will also be uploading all main cast simmies, so you can play with them in your own game. The site is still under major construction, since I just started this project a couple days ago. But I do have the first update, the "prologue" up, just so you have some idea on characters, or how the story came about.

Well anyways I hope you Enjoy yourselves, and please feel free to comment! I love to hear what you guys think, and maybe any suggestions for a later on plot!

A Little Hiatus

2010-11-07T22:52:00.000-06:00

Thought I would make a little post. Just saying I'll be on a little Creating Hiatus. I'll still be around the community at my normal "waterholes". But I won't be making anything for a little while. I do have a bunch of ideas floating around for new creations, and I will be creating more meshes. The problem I seem to be having is I can't get DDS plug-in to work with CS5. I've also heard I'm not the only one, and it might be the plugin itself not up to date.

If they don't update the plug in soon, I might go back to CS3. Or if anybody knows how to get the plugin working with CS5, if they could let me know. THAT would be wonderful!

TTYL!

Tee Shirt - Love Set

2010-10-06T18:01:00.003-05:00

**NOTE: Doesn't work with Boob Sliders. I'm not sure how to fix that

Since I couldn't get the Hoodie Mesh working at the moment, I thought I'd take a break and whip up some Tee Shirts. It's on a new Longer Mesh that I made. I know I personally hate short Tee Shirts, since I'm a tall girl. So I thought my simmies deserve some Long Tees too!

Halloween Event - Happening at Creator's Corner

2010-10-04T20:42:00.003-05:00

Whoop Whoop!

First event happening over at Creator's Corner! It's going to be fun! A great way to showcase your spooky creations or stories! Events will happen a few times a year and will include most Holidays. We'll start the ball rolling with Halloween! Halloween is a time to be silly, creative and spooky! Let your imagination run wild with the fun nature of this holiday. In this event you can submit pretty much anything to do with Sims3. Are you an amazing story teller? Love to create morbid, or supernatural sims? This is the time to submit.

If you're interested in entering click here or on the banner located at the bottom of the page.

Turns out Meshing isn't as easy as I thought! Lol That's what you get for being too cocky.

Live and learn, I guess?

Anyways, I really thought I was on a roll with my Mesh.

It looked awesome in Milkshape, and I whipped up a really quick texture and Mask, threw it in Workshop. Looked awesome as well!

So by this time I'm like completely stoked right? Yeah well.. went in game, -head desk-

Then of course I go and do some researching. Turns out you probably shouldn't delete any versicles (or w/e they're called) unless you really know what you're doing, since it screws up the fat morphs.

I can't turn back now! I WILL get this, and be able to share these. I'll just have to start from scratch. *sigh*

Ahh! Learning how to Mesh

2010-09-26T02:53:00.003-05:00

I've been screwing around in Milkshape lately, to see if I could ever mesh. It looks a lot scarier then it seems to be. But, like I said before, I'm a noobie and just trying very simple stuff at the moments. I'm trying to do some short hoodies (we need more athletic wear!). Plan on doing two versions. One with arms, and one without. (like a sweater vest)

It looks good in milkshape. But when I put it in game. Whoopsies. So now I'm learning how to 'frankenstine' two different meshes. Using the hoodie, and the naked top.

(not textured yet. BTW, that's why the textures way off.)

Just now I have to line up all the seams so it will allow me to export it. And I'm tired right now, so I'll do that tomorrow. But I wanted to show you what I'm working on. And what your simmies get to look forward to.

Hey guys!

Just letting you guys know I've cleaned up my blog a little bit to make it easier for downloading when I have more up. So far I only put two different pages (tabs at the top of the page) . Being 'Clothing' and 'Sims'. That way it's just a one stop shopping.

I don't have any sims up yet. But the clothing page is separated in Male>Female, and then age. Later, when I have more downloads up, I'll make more tabs for clothing Catagories.

Also, I made a cute banner for my blog, to showcase some of my sims, and their daily lives.

Hellow Fellow Simmers!

I have a treat for you all if I can get it working. It's the first dress out of a collection I'll be making. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. The only problem is, when it's in CAS the picture looks like a Maxis mesh, and the only way to click on the picture to make the dress appear, is to go into Create-A-Style.

I swear I've been working on getting this thing to work all night! And I still can't get it to function properly. I'm starting to think it just might be my game. If I can get some volunteers to try it out in game, then I'll know for sure if it's just me or it's the actual file. (which would bring me back to stage one .. *sigh*)

Here's the picture of the dress:

Hopefully I'll get this working so I can upload this for you!

Yay got my Sims working a little bit. It still randomly shut down on me. Luckily I saved right before it happened so I only lost when she ran off for another emergency. One fun fact for yah, for some reason..I have no idea why.. but whenever I start a new game, the first night I ALWAYS have a robbery. It's like my poor sims can never catch a break.

And of course the first thing Wylie decides to do about this guy,is to kick the his ass.

"My house? I don't think so.

After she beats him up, she stands at the door to watch him run to the street (which is like a few feet away), and wait for his "get away" car.

When the cop finally shows up, she comes to discuss a very important subject.

Where's Adeyle, you ask? Oh well, she decided she did her part by calling the cop, then she went back to bed.

In a couple of hours, Wylie got picked up for her first day on the job. Hellz yeah, to kick ass girl Fire fighters.

Why hellooo fellow fire fighters! Anyone look familiar? It's Ariz' Brooke, and Gwen.

Off to an emergency (( she also got a promotion, so she's kickass in red. Which she totally deserves because nobody else does anything! lol ))

And of course, when you practically live with someone, you tend to get a little close. (Romantique's Chris)

Seems like everyone is blogging these days. Thought I might as well see what the big hype is about. Plus if I ever get some sort of Sims Legacy going, this would be a great place to post everything. Obviously nothing is on it right now. I'll get this place organized, and prettyfied someday.
