This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS2 and in the community.
This is a Maxis Recolour which means that it is a recolour of an item that already exists in your game. Please check the Expansion pack requirements to see which game pack it recolours.
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Expansion pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS2 - check the sidebar.
This is a new mesh recolour, and means that you will need to download the particular mesh itself in order for this to show up in your game. See the Meshes Needed section or read the text for more information.
I couldn't think of a theme, so I mashed names together.
Here's a set of tattoos for your sims. The set includes one
dragon sleeve, one
virgin of guadalupe, and one
puddy tat. It was a lot of fun making this--with exception to trying to get the seams for the dragon sleeve to line up. That was a PITA.
Tats only appear on 1 arm for now... might get around to some double-armed sleeves later.
Dragon Sleeve
3 Color/Pattern areas
This uses artwork by
dirtyallover at deviant art (colored adequately by me). If you like the design, then go tell the artist he's awesome.
Virgin of Guadalupe
3 Color/Pattern areas
This uses artwork by
eexell at deviant art. If you like the design, then go give him some love as well.
Puddy Tat
2 Color/Pattern areas
This is the first tattoo I made, just dicking around with everything. I wasn't planning on including this one, but it turned out okay, and I figured some of you might enjoy it.
Both sexes. Teen through Elder. Located under accessories. They are enabled for all clothing categories, so hopefully they won't disappear when your sim gets nakey. Make sure to download BOTH the male & fem files for the dragon sleeve if you want both. Or just get the
zip with all of them included.
UPDATE
All previous tattoos have been updated so that they can be mixed & matched together. With Delphy’s last CTU update, I realized it would now be much easier to make mix & match tattoos by assigning each tattoo an accessory type based on the tattoo’s location.
I’ll be using the following conventions for all placements so that I don’t drive myself crazy with inconsistencies.
left arm –
left earring
right arm –
right earring
backpiece -
earrings
chestpiece -
bracelet
legs -
left ring
full body tattoo -
right earring
I was not quite anally retentive enough to name all the updated files the same as the old ones and to copy & paste exactly the same initial colors for the updated tattoos. Make sure you go through your downloads and delete the old files if you want to keep your CAS options tidy. Your download folder should still be small enough that this is manageable, right?
All tattoos have thumbnails now as well. In some cases, there are small color discrepancies between the thumbnail pic and the initial colors. Also, if you save your own color settings on any of these the game generates the thumbnail wherever it thinks the accessory should be. So that kind of sucks.
