THANKS THIS IS GREAT

According to the artist, this is a recolour, but IMO it's a crappy one. The two first ones are kind of ok, but the rest: it almost looks like the creator first took a picture of the sim, and then drew on it with a black marker. Behold:




Found here:http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/sets/663717/

Description:A set of the Castaway Stories native face tattoos recolored to black, along with a native tattoo from Bon Voyage recolored to both black and a light gray that matches the original color of the Castaway tattoos. These all work in both Castaway Stories and The Sims 2.

Um, they *are* recolours of Maxis made face tattoos and to be honest, I think they're pretty good (well, most of them anyway). The original ones are silver/white and they don't look so good on light skins but these do.

Anyway, the patterns are from EA and for what they're designed to be (tribal tattoos) I think they're okay. The base game face masks on the other hand, I never find any good reason to use.

Just in case you missed it, this is the rainbow goatee that didn't make it for the June challenge.

Gaze at its awefulness.

Well, I think they're a bit too *black* to look realistic (that is, look like a tattoo and not magic marker) on the skin, but maybe that's just me...(at least for number 4, 5,6, 8, and 10-15.)

From the Pit of Despair, and from Atwa no less:
I don't know if she was trying to make a poorly-done jab at PMBD or what. It looks more like a bandit mask than something a pirate would wear, but when did Atwa ever make sense?

The background amuses me, if only to scoff at such a weak attempt at an 'insult.'

I thought shaved eyebrows went out with Vanilla Ice in the 80s, and that it wasn't an attractive look THEN.

I can think of a reason, as I have them, scars. I have one or two scar sets. One or two of those scars are over the area an eyebrow would be.

I will also speak in defense of the Feathered mask from Peggy. Gaudy as it may be, it is authentic looking. I live in the new orleans area. 70% or more of the shops in the quarter have masks that look just like that.

I, in turn, will speak in the defense of the goofy eyes. (it's the second time in this thread that I'm standing up for a proposed item, should that mean something? Tongue)

Those aren't supposed to be worn constantly as an accessory, I'm pretty sure. But if you *wanted* to take a picture where a sim would have that look, they'd be really hepful.

Remember people, there are things that look weird but they're intentionally that way, and they can have a use. The Christmas tree barf on the face on the other hand... not so much.

True, and a good point. I'd say those eyebrows should be a face makeup, then, rather than a genetically-inheritable trait.

I will also speak in defense of the Feathered mask from Peggy. Gaudy as it may be, it is authentic looking. I live in the new orleans area. 70% or more of the shops in the quarter have masks that look just like that.

Wahey, my hometown! How y'all are, chere? I agree; the feathered mask, while apparently completely lacking in texture/colour, looks like a *very* well meshed item. Given it's Peggy's, there's probably some insane gap in it somewhere, but from the picture given, it's really beautifully done. Perfect replica of the Mardi Gras style and very fitting for, say, a formal party.

One thing becomes apparent here: most everyone ran to TSR and looked in the costume makeup area immediately after seeing the contest theme.

Remember people, there are things that look weird but they're intentionally that way, and they can have a use. The Christmas tree barf on the face on the other hand... not so much.

Sure, but I think the whole point here is your subjective opinion of what constitutes as tasteless or useful.

See this?


That frightens me and I think it is awful, but then again, I'm not into this whole creepy doll scene.
People who don't like Star Wars might say the same for this:


That's just my opinion. You can consider them both entries.  Tongue

I don't mind the Twi'lek head-thing, but the fact that the skin tone doesn't match everywhere (check the "ears" coming out of the sides of the crown) does bother me.

I love those Twi'lek head thingies. You can wear them with or without those head-dresses. I have them on several aliens in my Strangetown, and it looks great on them. It's cool that they pick up the color of the Sim's skin.
Yea, but I like weird stuff.. Wink

That in itself speaks volumes about the content available there, doesn't it? I certainly mad-dashed myself over there because I knew there would be plenty of post-worthy items available. Grin

I have that sim, mostly for the clothes it came with, after seeing the makeup and eyes in my own game I literally went "UUUUUGGHGGHHH".
Those eyes are horrible.

Yeah, I'll admit, my first entry doesn't compare to some of the others. I would've entered a lady with 'white paint' on her face, but it was entered in either last month or May. And caused a break-down or two.

And no, never met Tchan before.
