#my tutorials

People seem to like my hands, so, here’s my first "tutorial", tackling my approach on how to draw and construct hands! I hope to do more of these, and that next one will dive into hand gestures and applying it with this structure.

hey, thank you so much!!! tbh, children are tricky and it took years of practice before i felt like i drew them okay--hopefully these tips are helpful to you!

using georgia and her much younger self as a guide: children have big heads in relation to their bodies, with their features mostly relegated to 2/3 or even 1/2 of the face, depending on the art style. babies and toddlers in particular almost always have large foreheads and big cheeks, no matter what their individual features are.

my children tend to lean more cherubic and cartoonish because i've always adored how rose o'neill, the creator of kewpie dolls, drew children and babies. great big eyes, small noses and mouths, etc.

that being said: as you can see with georgia above, her younger self still has fuller lips and a wider nose, they're just small in proportion to the rest of her head, if that makes sense!

hey yall im sellin lipgloss excuse my hair.. OKAY HI GUYSSS i learned that when your cc has symbols such as ?/#]{:_ and just spaces between characters, it causes the game to take a bit longer due to the difficulty to register all of your cc because of the different characters involved.

SO i'm just here to show yall how exactly to do this because in my next sim download, my cc will be renamed differently, and i would very much prefer if you guys didn't add duplicates for the sake of your own time. you already know how annoying it is to go through the cc folder just to find them all (unless you're using simsweep, clean launcher, and/or the mod manager YAWPPP)

ok so first things first what you're going to want to do is download the bulk rename utility (press the underlined subject) it's a very quick download and once you do that, you're going to want to navigate to your cc folder, if your cc folder is in the exact location as mine it will be C:\Users\YOUR NAME\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods.

once you've navigated to the similar folder, you will see a whole bunch of selections down below (shown in the next photo).

what you are going to want to do to efficiently rename your files is go down to the remove category and copy the next image 🡓

when you've done this, drag and select all of your files, it should look like this 🡓

once you're set with all the files that needed to be renamed, you will want to press the rename button at the bottom right of the program 🡓

NOWWW everything should be renamed and hopefully you have lesser loading times. for me personally, my game used to take about (not even exaggerating) 30 minutes (i have like 250gbs of cc) but now i've noticed it's gone down to just about 15-20 minutes which is way better for me personally.

VERY IMPORTANT... do NOT rename any of your mods. you should only rename your cc!

always make sure to rename your cc before dropping things into your actual folder if you decide to use the bulk rename just to avoid any duplicates inside unless you don’t mind going into one of the programs i mentioned earlier to get rid of them!

Hello, and welcome to the long-awaited(at least on my part) digital stamp-making tutorial from neosprites! I’d like to preface that I learned what I was doing from this tutorial so it may be a bit redundant, but if anything I get a bit more specific. Thank you so much to @graphic--horde for your work, it changed me as a graphic maker. This is gunna be a long post so feel free to bookmark it for later. Now, onto the show!

Hello! I've decided to make an updated tutorial on how I gif, since some of my giffing methods have changed since I made my first one (and this one is still valid, by the way! I've just changed a few things and I thought the update would be good.)

In this tutorial you'll find:

A download link for Photoshop CC 2020;

Step-by-step instructions on how to make gifs and color them;

A sharpening action for your gifs;

A base psd for gifs.

Get the tutorial here (just type 0 to get it for free, and if you'd like to support me, any amount is extremely appreciated).

oh yeah of COURSE!!! :D i've waiting for this moment... literally! i've most of this sitting around for like, a month but, idk, i worried it'd be like, egotistical(????) to post a pomni tutorial unprompted..? but now i have been prompted so the floodgates shall open!!! >:D pomni be upon thee

(here's goose's pomni expression sheet in case you haven't seen it yet)
