Colors Sims!
So I've been making the characters of Colors in Sims! XD I haven't played that far yet but I think I'll just give you an overview and show you some screenshots.
Basic infos: I only own the basic Sims 2 game for Mac. Since I'm playing on my laptop the graphic isn't that good.
I only made Akai-san, Mikan-tan, Kou-kun and Aoi-sama so far because I didn't find any appropriate green hair for Midori~n yet! And out of those, only the first three live together because I made Aoi-sama later on (it also fits IMO if they only come one by one into the household). Kou-kun and Mikan-tan are Akai-san's children xDD; for the simple reason that you can't make children or teenager seperately without having adult relatives in their family. :/
Family Colors! I DLed Akai-san and Kou-kun's hair as well as Akai and Mikan's clothes. Not sure where I got them, if someone's interested I can go look.
Their zodiac signs are according to the birthdates on the website, Akai-san as a cancer is pretty balanced and nice. He's a family type.
Mikan-tan is a lion which makes her active and playful, I guess that does fit the picture we have of her. XD As a child, she doesn't have any ambitions yet except growing up. (Which she never will because I finally turned aging off, wahahaha! `o´) She's also a total slob.
Kou-kun is a virgo and that makes him a guy with a mania for cleanliness. He's the party type who wants to have a lot of friends (sorry I don't know the specific terms, I play the game in german. xD)
That's Aoi-sama. I did DL eyepatches but none of them worked (also, most of them would have been for the left eye anyway). -.- So if anyone knows a working patch, please do point it out. His hair is blueish, it was the best I could find that didn't look too bad and was kinda fitting. Aoi-sama is a sagittarius, he's hyperactive, not very nice and his ambitions lie at knowledge, so he wants to gain a lot of abilities and work for science etc.
Outside their home. Akai-san's dreams shatter as Mikan-tan disagrees with him about cooking which she apparently dislikes.
Akai and Mikan play, while Kou-kun studies... cooking, I think. He wants to become a cook! They started out very poor, I didn't even have a bed for everyone in the first day xD; Just a double bed and the third one had to sleep on the couch. You see that thing in the corner there? It's an Elizabeth (from Gintama) plushie and a guest actually took it with her!! I guess it was a bug. She picked it up while Akai-san requested all the guests to leave and then she walked away... with it! It was the only toy, poor Mikan. :O
Once more, Akai-san's dreams shatter as Kou-kun dares to disagree. XD
Akai-san coming home proudly with no one greeting him properly (Mikan-tan was still at school) XD;; In-game, Akai-san started out working for the military, but after getting promoted twice in one week, he switched jobs and became an athlete. He brought home Genesis from the FFVII Crisis Core household. 8D
Sleeping on the couch while a stranger in uniform sits calmly next to you. Not strange at all.
Kou-kun was pretty exerted during the first week, just like everyone. He did have a part-time job on top of his school (he sucks at school, BTW).
Eating sandwiches! I delibaretly tried to make the household colorful, every piece of furniture where I could choose is either red, orange or yellow. The chessboard and the easel are examples for things where you can't choose. :O
What the hell are you teaching her, Genesis? I do hope it's LOVELESS.
Kou and Mikan hugging, aw. They didn't get along too well in the beginning, but after the first day they were already friends.
Akai-san enjoying the scent of those cheese noodles.
Sharing a friendly kiss..... I wonder if there are any Kou/Mikan shippers out there. XD
Akai-san and Kou-kun are best friends now with Mikan thinking about Kou... she does seem to do that a lot.
This is after Akai-san changed jobs and became s mascot. He comes home, with Mikan immediately running there to hug him, aww.
Here, she's dancing. XD That picture was also drawn by her. She is very creative!
This is Akai-san at Genesis's household. They did have some romance going on, but when I play at Colors Akai-san never had the wish to invite Genesis or anything. I think it was just fling for him just as it was for Genesis! XD He wants to focus on his family, after all! Genesis is one of the two man-eaters in the neighbourhood, the other one being...
Izaya from the DRRR household:
After about 4 days, Mikan's grades became so bad that the youth welfare office took her away! O.O Luckily, I had saved before that and reloaded with Kou helping her. He ditched his own school that day to stay at home and write her homework for her, so her grades miracously improved and she was spared xD;
Akai commanding teaching her to do her homework!
Mikan playing with her submissive friend! No, she's playing dead here because she was shot:
Playing on the street? Uh, not cool :O
meanwhile, this is what Akai-san's house looks from the outside.
Cooking... that's Gintoki out there. XD
Eating with Shizuo!
One more with Shizuo and Hijikata.
Another one with Shizuo at a... garden bathing party? XD
Finally, Akai-san and Aoi-sama's first meeting. It was a pain to let Aoi-sama befriend Kou-kun so they would finally meet each other. That's an interesting thought there, Akai-san! o.o
Guess Aoi-sama wasn't as fond of him in return, though. The first thing he did was mock him!
I think he actually hit him.
Yeah, they don't seem to like each other that much...
Actually... probably not at all.
Friendly conversation? Mikan's thinking about Kou again.
Yeah, dear best friend / schoolfriend of Kou, that's not creepy at all.
Mikan's having fun here!
Aoi talking about money. XD It's almost like: Aoi: "I have a lot of money, you know."
Akai: "Welcome to the family!" No, they only finally befriended each other here. I still have to get Aoi to move in with them. He's looking creepy here.
He has gray eyes BTW. I wasn't sure if they were supposed to be blue or gray, the others have the colors according to their profile, which is purple for Akai and Kou and orange for Mikan. XD
That's it for now 8D !
