#inside overlays

[aliksims]

This is the first of two projects that I considered and gave up on multiple times before finally pulling through and getting at least a good solid start on pre-hiatus. ;>.< I tried using Aikea Guinea’s Wall Writing mesh (1) first, but the lighting (and therefore the color) was off, so I kept poking around until I finally ran across CatherineTCJD’s Wall Overlay sets over on MTS (2,3,4).

And they were perfect! ...Until I remembered why I hadn’t used them the first time I’d run across them; somehow among the various fixes over the years, the meshes had gotten slightly skewed, so they just didn’t perfectly match with the wall patterns they were supposed to replace.

But! Now that I have much more experience in MilkShape, I stiffened my resolve and fixed it myself. So! All 3 meshes (INside/Outside/Border decorative overlays) have been shifted slightly downward to match the underlying patterns exactly, and the lighting has been fixed on the INside and Border meshes to match the Outside mesh. The fixed meshes are included with their respective recolors. I recommend you check out Catherine’s original pages for the rest of the explanations regarding what these overlays do and do not.

So, without further ado... Each wall overlay comes in all 111 colors of the AKS Object Rainbow 3b (5). I own exactly none of them. To see what exactly all these colors are, where they are from, and who exactly the talented artists are that created them, please go here (6). (The color files are individually labeled with their original creator, palette, and name, but like usual I’ve probably mangled them beyond recognition by abbreviating everything.)

PS- I compiled and reorganized a few of Catherine’s wall overlays to match my organizational system. THIS IS NOT ALL OF THE OVERLAYS SHE OFFERED so if you want all of hers, you’ll still need to download them from MtS (linked above). The reorganized files can be downloaded here: http://simfil.es/3565156/

...Did I first decide I had to organize all potential Maxis overlays first? Well of course! Should you become inspired to do your own wall overlay recolors (please tag me so I’ll know where to go find them!) and would like to use my attempt at a numbering system to keep them somewhat organized:

This is how I’ve organized all potential border mesh recolors: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i0Ep1LYmOhij_fm2hgWo6OHSPeBmzrES38dAlWzgrQA/edit?usp=sharing

opinion on the new hlvrai teaser thing that came out today

i’m feeling something ! it’s positive !

#EDIT i added said teaser #the monarch’s court #i kinda Doubt it’s hl2vrai #maybe just bc of the visual of the test chamber or whatever it was being Clearly from hl1 Inside black mesa #don’t know what the glasses overlay is about #ANYWAY i need to finally watch the gnome series #hlvrai

The great thing about being in charge of our own book design stuff is that we can, in fact, decide to go through a ridiculous amount of effort to create custom headers for every chapter.

We've gotten about two thirds of the way through Shadow Herald's headers right now. Downside; every time a chapter takes place in a new location, we have to draw that location. Upside; every time we draw a location, we can reuse it later. My gods do the shop interiors take forever.

#book design #writeblr #writing community #booklr #indie books #look we finished Charlan's shop today and it is very charming but it took us two days to do #only locations left in this book are the World's Wound and the interior of Silamir's temple #i think we're gonna . . . cheat a little for camp Veldin and either just reuse the (six different seasonal) forest BGs for full mileage #maybe add an overlay layer with a couple tents to make it Specifically Camp Veldin as opposed to just any ol' part of the woods #we will have to. draw the inside. of the Matrius' palace. and also the royal registry. #but i think the registry will not be too bad probably? #the question is simply where is it fine to cop out a little and where do we decide to doodle every object in a story despite knowing that #we will need to slap an unfocus blur + dents filter on anyway #it's necessary #because that is what ensures that the bgs are JUST bg and not making it hard to make out the PoV characters #o shit and we have to get Crislie a “:(” expression #Navaeli has a “:)” and a “:(” expression #Mep only has “>:(” because he is Mep and that is usually how he looks but i think he will get a “:(” too

Enough nonsense asks. I want to know something really important: what's your favorite mountain and why?

Tahoma (mt. ranier) because I grew up under her & admiring her

also she's queer (:

#its a Thing in the area to say 'the mountain is out!' when you can see her #and its turned into a local inside joke- there are a ton of like bumper stickers and stuff with a picture of her under that quote #and a rainbow flag overlay #cause she came out!!

TG: only getting more attractively well proportioned by the day

TG: damn i feel like a movie protagonist

TG: shitty cgi and overused desaturated aesthetic overlay and all

[foileadeux]

there are so many ideas in my silly little head rn i’m just sitting here rn like

#can u just like imagine 50 different songs playing overlayed bc that’s what the inside of my mind feels like rn #so many things i wanna draw

[stuck-in-the-ghost-zone]

as much as i am mentally unwell over tristamp rn... i think i will always prefer 98. this is weird coming from me because i am the guy whos favorite part of the entire series is weird plant biology and there is exactly 0 of that in trigun98 but at the same time like........ it just makes me so much happier to watch.

obviously the manga is objectively the best version of the story and i would kill for a beat by beat animated adaption of the manga (<<something i know is impossible) but i also have a hard time reading comics and cannot readily consume the manga as well as i can the animes

#nobody asked for these thoughts but i need an outlet <3 #my ranking goes trimax >> 98 >> tristamp #not to say i dislike tristamp. i very much like tristamp and there r certain aspecfs i like from that version even better than in the manga #which is why i think my preferred method for creating/consuming fan content is when ppl combine aspects of all three #like. idk man i have a lot of trigun thoughts tonight im squishing it around in my hands like silly putty #i desperately wish i was not in a huuuuge months long setback of writers block bc i would love 2 do character analyses rn #aaaurrghggghgh head in hands. my brain is going 2 explode. #im going 2 sit down in the imaginary space inside my mind and start #untangling neurons like theyre a knotted tangle of necklace chains and headphone wires #need 2 do that but like fr. do u know how good thay would feel. solves all my mental illnesses #anyway in other news i did my thumbnail overlay and my new profile pic for artfight today. cannot wait 2 post those they look soooo good #finally i can be a guy covered in blood (<< is planning 2 be team vampire) #sigh. i do not want 2 sleep i do not want 2 be a person rn i want 2 be a. #vague concept or perhaps a fictional character who ppl write hurt/comfort about. emphasis on the comfort
