What happens when you cross two Obsessions?

[ginevrasm]

Well, since I've become a bit frustrated with finding illustrations for my stories. I've figured out a way to make them for myself by combining my two biggest obsessions: The X-Men and The Sims.

Click on the cut to see some new screen shots a la The Sims:

First comes a self portrait:



Can you say, new User Pic?

Then comes a family photo:




By the way, that's what the game considers "fat."  I'd love to be that "fat."

Then on to the fun stuff:

Remy in the Dark.




Getting a little friendly there, aren't we boys?




Now that's inspiration!




Turn about's fair play after all.




Unfortunately, I can only get so graphic using the game.  But now that I've got my pixelated heros on tap, I can be a little more creative with my illustrations.  I can't draw worth a damn, but with enough time, I'm actually pretty good at doing Simselfs.  I've done my whole family actually.  And each character is recognizeable.

My next project will probably be the Mutant Sues.  I don't think I can get their costumes right, but I'm sure I can manage some civvies and some dorm room shots.  I'm dying to do the "Bat Cave" actually.

Some of these shots are now appearing in A Friend in Need... Enjoy.
