I thought those cars looked familiar. I think I've seen those magazine meshes somewhere else too. Wouldn't surprise me at all. People who do that are just gross.

Just a thought,
If anyone would like to make my mermaid into deco art for sims, please do. I think she would fit nicely on the 'lady in red'.
Let me know if you do, and, of course, make it a free file. That's all I ask.  


I have a life-long fascination with mermaids as well.

Some of you might recognize the mermaid from a Playboy issue featuring Stephanie Seymour. I did draw inspiration from the photo, but I did not trace or project the image onto the paper like many artists will do. I did it entirely by eye.
So, yeah, she (mermaid) is not from life, because there is no way I could afford to get Stephanie Seymour to sit for me. And I don't know any real mermaids either. Wish I did. 

Ok, back on topic for a moment. I would love to contribute to the smut project. I can make movies, but I'm not that good at it, however, I am pretty good at creating some fabulous stills. I would love to use a lot of the smutty pay stuff from TSR, proving another point about TSR's hypocracy.
Kill 2 birds with one smutty stone, so to speak.

Your welcome and thank you.
Your comments are giving me a warm fuzzy feeling.

See, now I don't understand why some people seem to think the pirates are all so mean to everyone.
I guess being blunt or honest is missinterpreted as being mean. But I like knowing that if you all thought the mermaid sucked, you would tell me. Therefore, your positive feedback means that much more to me.

Thank you for the kind comments on the mermaid.
I spent over a year drawing it. It's actually quite large, poster size. So when my professor called it cheesecake, I was very discouraged. I majored in art in college, but it seemed to me that the establishment only wanted to promote abstract art (which I hate). They literally had garbage hanging from a tree on campus, and they called it art. The top entry in the campus art magazine was a piece of canvas with black, white and grey paint splotched on it in no particular form. It was total shit. Meanwhile, I was being told that my drawings were merely cheesecake illustrations and not real art. I dropped out after failing drawing 101 three times. The damn dean wouldn't even take a look at my portfolio, so I couldn't clep out of 101.
My advise, if you want to be a traditional artist, don't go to art school. Just do your own thing and don't worry about what the art snobs say. I had to learn that lesson the hard-headed way.

Again, many thanks to all who commented.

As requested:

On the topic of cheesecake. Everytime I hear that word, I think about one of my drawings from college. My professor called it cheesecake, and I was so insulted. Though nowadays, looking back, I can see what he meant. Anyway, here is an example of cheesecake, drawn by yours truly.

I just posted on BBB's blog. I wanted to tell you all about it, because I know he'll delete it.

I told him I hope he gets AIDS. It's not a real disease since they joked about it on South Park.
I also mentioned that the only reason it's funny on South Park is because they are making fun of the type of jackasses that would say something like that.
I also said that he needs to quit thinking he's god's gift to the sims, since there are so many good creators out there that share their stuff for free. We will all do just fine without his crappy second-hand creations.

There was more, but I don't want to repeat myself too much. I'm sure no one will see it but him. Fine with me. I was speaking to him directly and personally. I just wanted to say something to you guys, so you know where I stand.

I love it!

YES!

Thank you Pickles for clearing that up for me.
 I was wondering if Bruno was male or female.
She has fabulous taste and skills.

Maybe we could get Stephen Colbert to put TSR in his "Threat Down!", or at least on his notice board.

I love all of Bruno's stuff. There is real talent in everything he(?) does. Speaking as an artist, I am quite envious.
Bruno's creations are huge win.

I have all the smutty stuff from sexysims, including the shower. I know how to make sim movies too. I would be happy to lend my abilities to the project.

Reading her "TSR Newsletter" felt like reading The Onion. I laughed outloud several times. Especially the interview with atwat.
