Please Read My Friends (+ New Sim)

This week I'll be absent for a few days. Which means: NO Sims for the days. I'll be on a vacation in the islands of Syros, Tinos & Mykonos. Probably with my mom, as part of a group trip. It's the final year of going on vacation with my parents. By next year I'll do the job on my own as I'll be independent.

THAT doesn't mean I'll stop playing The Sims. Means that I'll take a break from reality this week. I have other personal matters to take care of. The whole week from Monday 22nd to Sunday 28th of July. The Sims will always be there for me whenever I have time. Though it's also work that's putting pressure on my uploading and my routine. I work for this season, not as a waitress, but as a secretary helper.

I have limited the number of uploads on my catalog - see. I run out of bio ideas for my Sims and it's hard setting them skills and careers. That happens every day! Whenever I set them skills & stuff I feel like I've run out of inspiration so what. But the stories I give them take hours to be produced in my head. Only for challenges. Or just a few lines. E.G. "John is an outgoing & cheerful guy who recently found a job as a chef. He loves to hang out with friends & cook for them as well as set up parties for his guests." Then drop a "Please don't reupload" and that's it.

I also thought of the other one. Write the name of the Sim, age, career level, skilled or not, poses in brackets and packs used. E.G. "John Smith" Sim by: #mikrolactaki3. Age: Young Adult. Career: Culinary, level 3. #skilled. Poses by: #SakuraLeon (random pose maker) Packs used: (well I have few so I'm practicing about when I get more packs, I'm not gonna drop it xD) #bowlingnightstuff#gettogether#seasons#spaday#fitnessstuff#getfamous#gettowork#vintageglamourstuff. Also drop a "Please don't reupload" at the end. That's it.

I'm thinking of what's best for me. Even if I use more packs both are a good alternative. So the thing is that I'll keep you all updated even on my IG where I don't post the most ;)

New female sim; her name's Scarlett Noel. I got inspired by a TV bumper & made her look like the character I saw. She has no skills nor completed aspiration. Love the way she turned out. Equipped with the "Sweet" female voice. Age: Young Adult. Traits: Creative / Romantic / Family-Oriented. Aspiration: Serial Romantic.

 Please don't reupload her as yours, enjoy her!

Until next time, Joanne AKA mikrolactaki3

The Hairston (& Bonus Sim!)

1st off, I apologize for my inactivity. There have been a lot in my life which keep me busy. Today I reached 200 followers on my gallery page. I really appreciate your support dear friends! I will be patient for more so... here's a bonus house in terms of celebrating my 200 Llama milestone. I called it "The Hairston". It was named after a Sim I shared on the gallery, an evil scientist named Eric Hairston. It's just a simple trailer which ranges about 29k simoleons.

House's description: Do you know where this NO-CC, no-MOO, small, simple,bright, modern house got its name from? Eric Hairston, an evil scientist (he's available on my catalog) with a bright mind but one flaw; he's a loner! Its spacious backyard makes perfect for a walk or a glass of cold water, as well as a science lair for your aspiring scientists. Parties? NO! Limit yourself to a few guests or stay on your own. Natural light as well. One bedroom, one bathroom & spacious backyard.  

Screenshots: 

House uses the Get to Work pack & base game.

Sim's description: Eric doesn't like being surrounded by people. He rarely hangs out or can be spotted in town. His science career has made him quite an introvert, almost unable to interact with his friends, because he's focused on work & experiments. He lives in his little spacious house, on his own, enjoying solitude in his mini lab.

Eric possesses the Evil, Genius & Loner traits. His aspiration is "Nerd Brain". He is a level 9 Scientist (Mad Scientist), skilled & equipped with the "Warm" male voice. Adult.

Screenshots:

Sim uses Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Holiday Celebration Pack & Get to Work.

Please enjoy BOTH creations, the house & the Sim. 100% made by me Joanne aka mikrolactaki3. Do not reupload them as yours. Even modified.

Time to get to know me a little better...

Hey guys. This post is a little different from the others. Different from an aspect of "yeah, just getting rid of my typical creations of Sims in TS4, offering them a beautiful face and a nice style for all 8 categories", I decided to just show you all how I look like in The Sims 4, I mean, make my SimSelf! But before that let me explain some details about myself.

My name is Joanne, I'm 17.5 years old and I'm from Greece.

This is pretty much how I look like in real life, sorry for just exposing myself at this blog, but most pictures include acne as they were taken during teenage years :D

And I was only 17 years old, heh, that was LAST year (2018) before getting a new hair look THIS year (2019). When I had long hair. And had more acne than now. I guess I have more acne now. Um... time matters. Sadly I can't show you pictures of my body as it will be some kind of offensive towards the readers. For your information I'm a little chubby. Therefore I like the way I am, with my curves & my acne, and I don't believe in Instagram stereotypes (bigger butt, full lips etc etc) on no account.

The picture below is my Sims 4 version before my new look. I shared her on April 22nd 2019, Holy Monday as of Orthodox Easter. The reason why I shared her is my 3000 downloads on my Gallery page #mikrolactaki3.

These pictures were taken before getting my new hair look. Now I've dyed my hair & have blond tips (ombre hair). I remained the same as previously with the same weight. This version below is my Sims 4 version with dyed hair. Since I don't own none of the packs I used to reflect my look in the Sims as the one in real life. Though, during student life I'll definitely buy the packs myself (and all the Sims 4 games I own, I bought them myself since November 2017) which are Backyard Stuff & Jungle Adventure.

This is me in real life with the new look.

All pictures use filters. It's something I like to use when I take pictures. Even on my own, even with friends... I love photography, mostly landscape photography. During summer I love to take pictures of the landscape wherever I go around Greece. I'll most probably use them to make my first Sims 4 paintings (they have no third party faces) probably after exams. Photography & creativity are something that describes me.

I'm also a special kind of person. Everyone admires me for my personality in & out of the game. My kindness, my good manners & as well my integrity especially in game. I care about others' hard work, getting inspired by them but of course NOT steal their work. I try to work hard on the things I make my way. The beauty of this game is to be ourselves & make our own things however talented we are. As of now, I have over 310 items on my catalog. They were made ALL by myself. I didn't steal others' work nor ideas (I once was accused of stealing someone's idea but glad I took the item down).

Remember: Keep up the #creators4fairplay because all this work is not stolen by anyone in no variation. (I've been stolen twice)

In & out of the game, I like to make people laugh with my jokes. I sometimes tell them... I do it for the company. Friends, family and teachers... now that I've almost finished school I'll miss them a lot. However I am more of an introvert.

My birthday is on October 11th which makes me a Libra.

Now that I'm done with school exams, not the ones that determine my studies, I'm happy to be back on track again & share my lovely creations with you all... under my HARD work. Oh, of course looking forward to buying more content... I'm currently bored & busy at the same time. For a short time.

I distributed all the real life pictures from my Instagram account. Thank you all for reading & have a nice day!

Please follow me on the other Instagram account which I made quite recently!

Vincent - Male Sim #3

Just another handsome young adult boy brought to you by Joanne (Me :D) First come the in-game pics ♥

And one in game with his girlfriend Camilla (will post her some other day)

Name: Vincent Garland. Age: Young Adult. Skilled. He's occupied in the Social Media career. His aspiration is Leader of the Pack w/bonus trait Gregarious (his aspiration comes with Get Together expansion pack) & traits are Active, Self Assured & Outgoing. Equipped with the "Clear" male voice.

His bio according to my gallery item: No one would just think Vincent would be lucky by nature. He had dreams of becoming a model, so he moved to San Myshuno to try his luck. Ever since the opportunities were endless, he thought of trying the social media to advertise himself but it eventually turned out good. Is it still time for him to find a nice girl or continue the social media frenzy?

Some CAS screenshots:

Thing is in CAS he looks hotter than in-game ♥ Hope you like him! Have fun & enjoy & PLAY FAIR!!! DO NOT RE-UPLOAD!!! ♥

Lane - Male Sim #2

Oh hello there dear readers. I'm back with another post and a new long story to tell. About a new male Sim I made quite recently. His name is Lane Sands, he's a young adult, skills necessary for his job & not only (mostly in game use) & occupied at the Tech Guru career, as a Dot Com Pioneer at the Start Up Branch (lvl 9)

His aspiration is Computer Whiz (bonus trait: quick learner) and his 3 traits are Geek, Bookworm, Genius. Comes up with the "Clear" male voice.

Here are some pictures of him in CAS.

And some of them in-game!

The in game version is hotter than in CAS, but never mind :D Isn't he hot?

There's a hidden backstory behind his surname "Sands". Sands used to be a surname quite usual on my Sims game when I first installed TS4 on my new desktop computer bought June 2018. Due to some activities with TS3, I installed one month later (July 2018). I worked on it before leaving for holiday August 2018, so it was like the longest generation I played. The matriarch was Cortney, she had two daughters Delores (redhead) and Erica (blonde). I started to build the generation along with my Santiago family (Naomi married Gavin Richards off Roomies) that's why most of the generation Sims married Maxis-created Sims so that they don't die without offsprings... I barely remember some names off the Sands generation. (Johnny, Kayla, Melody, Delores, Erica, Nathaniel, Cortney, Kylie, Bonnie, Joseph sorry I don't remember many! I've repeated previously)

Hope you like him. For download please find me on the gallery as mikrolactaki3 or else I'll look forward to posting a link for alternative download!
