Re: Do you have Sims inspired by fictional characters or celebrities? 🕺

Well, hello there, LennyOgg! 😉

I'm not the best at making sims, but a while back when I felt like doing something different, I made the cast of Archer and put them on the gallery.

Their traits are

  • Archer: Self-Absorbed, Self-Assured, Non-Committal
  • Krieger: Genius, Cheerful, Evil
  • Malory: Snob, Mean, Ambitious
  • Lana: Active, Hot-Headed, Perfectionist
  • Cheryl: High-Maintenance, Erratic, Materialistic
  • Pam: Bro, Goofball Loyal
  • Cyril: Jealous, Squeamish, Proper
  • Ray: Active, Creative, Outgoing

They're not in my game yet because I want to finish my 100 Baby Challenge before starting another storyline. I'm thinking once I do start something new, I might put the Archer household in my game and send them on a jungle adventure. Or maybe I'll send them to space. Or maybe both! And I should probably also build them a headquarters.

I also have to create a Barry sim; I need them to have a villain to compete with... and I also want him to be a stand-in for someone I dislike IRL. 😁 I don't normally do bad stuff to my sims, but I can make an exception for Barry, lol. It would be great if I could do some trickery to give him a robo-arm from the start. Based on the show, I think Barry's traits might be Erratic, Adventurous and Mean. I'm not sure, though, I might change my mind about one or two of those. It's a shame Petty isn't a trait. It would be more accurate for Barry than Mean, but I gotta work with what I have. Maybe I'll make a Katya, too, so Barry and Archer can fight over her.

Now I just have to finish this 100 Baby Challenge... 😅

    This is amazing! I had to google them and I found this pic and they look so alike!

    You even gave them the matching traits.

    Thanks, I spent a LOT of time on them! It wasn't always easy to find the right clothes and hairstyles within the limits of what I had in my game. And I still don't think I quite got Malory's face right (RIP, Jessica Walter), but they still please me. 😊

    Your sim versions of the cast from Archer are very great! @PandoraTO 🙂 You have reflected them so well! 

  • These are Stefan Katz and Jannis Schoplin I created in 2015!
    Inspired by Cat Stevens (Katze=Cat) and Janis Joplin.

    They lived in the Peace Train ('Peace Train' is a song from Cat Stevens).

    Later they moved to San Myshuno and had a little daughter, Dharma.
    (Inspired by Dharma Freedom Finkelstein-Montgomery from the series Dharma&Greg)

    Dharma with her dog Stinky and Stinky's dog Nunzio :3

    They have apearances in our others stories until today :3

    They are great sim versions of Cat Stevens and Janis Choplin! @LennyOgg 🙂 You have reflected them as sims very well! The Peace Train build is lovely. Dharma is a very sweet toddler 🙂

    Upvoted you for Nanny Ogg 😃 (Do you have the cookbook? It's quite good!)

    I don't think I have screenshots anymore from my old save, but back in 2015, when some things about rotational gameplay were broken for a while, I decided to start a new save that would be just fluff, so I wouldn't care if rotational gameplay was kind of broken.

    The entire save was fictional characters and celebrities, plus a few premades and my simself (the only time I've played with her since she died in a horrendous accident in 2000). It was superfun. I grabbed some of the Sims from the Gallery and made a lot of others myself. Some of those are probably still on the Gallery if anyone wants them! The most fun in that was when Amber from the Sims 4 promos moved in with Elvis and they had lots of parties features the slippy slide from the Backyard pack. Also I had Aliens based on David Bowie and Tilda Swinton, who ended up in my rotational save later :D I'm sometimes tempted to revive that save. I definitely have copies of it saves.

    Your save based on fictional characters and celebrities does sound like fun! @luthienrising 🙂 You would have enjoyed seeing the interactions between the various sims and watching them living their lives in your game. The simversion of Elvis is great!

    I made my book characters into sims. I've written 4 books, with the same characters from book one to the fourth. It really brought them alive. I'm now on my 8th generation with them.

    Being a Police/Sting fan from way back, I've created him ( 70's, 80's early 90's Sting, not latter years Sting!😶) 

    I've recreated a few celebrities as Sims - my best one was probably Liam Gallagher. He looked just like him, unlike brother Noel, who didn't capture what he looks like, and he had not very attractive children. I was going to say ugly, but that's a bit rude!

    Billy Idol was another good one. Especially with Sims 3 with the rockstar career. He was great fun to play with. I kept him single to focus just on him and his career. It was a sad day when Grimmy appeared and took him away.

    I was planning on a Bowie sim, but how do you replicate someone who looked like David Bowie?

    It is great that you made simversions of the characters from the books that you have written @Jayel-1 🙂 It would be quite exciting for you to see the characters that you thought about in your mind, then developed and wrote about  in books brought to life in your game, and see how they live their lives. It would also help you if you write further books about them. 
    It is great that you enjoyed having Billy Idol in your Sims 3 game.
