Does anyone else here make OC's into sims?

I haven't yet since I've only recently gotten the game, but I want to make my d&d character in the sims XD

Yes! I'm only a new member so I can't post pictures, but I'm using some of mine as legacy founders in my game currently!

I do! Usually based on face claims too.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I even make texture edit CC for them!

Sometimes it's the other way around and my sims turn into OCs instead, but that's a different story. (pokes my icon - he's the reason i have vampire ocs in the first place, oops)

The ones here are ones I've had for years before Sims 4 came out; in fact I made them in TS3 too, at some point. They're this specific type of aliens I made up.

And that is barely a fraction of the OC sims I've made. ESPECIALLY if we're including TS3 sims, because oh my god I added so many OCs into that game. So many.

Also, The Sims is just great for figuring out their houses in general. Floor plans. Keeping things consistent. It's good. I actually have a friend who exclusively uses TS4 for creating his OCs and their houses; he's not as much into the gameplay part of it.

I made 3 of my OCs I used for my short stories once, but had lost the save I had them on. I've also made my DnD character who's currently in my game. She's been the gym trainer every time I've had another Sim go to the gym, which was pretty amusing considering she's the fighter and tank of our party!

I've tried doing it but it dosen't work very well since i dont have much fantasy cc....

I JUST made a character named Evie - bascially shes an insane half fox child.

I have a hard time making OCs, since developing a unique story is a tough thing to do. I do enjoy designing them, though. I love the idea of making sims of OCs, or even OCs out of sims, because it can definitely help with the story creation! If you wanted to get an idea for a scene, you could even "play it out" before deciding to develop it further.

I love making Sims to help me get an idea of an OC, like what eye color I want or some shadow of an outfit.

I do this with my novel characters all the time. Most of them are just for the library, so I can show them off to any readers who wonder what they look like in my head, and I often use them to recreate scenes from the stories or have them pose for book covers, but some even live among my other sims in the game. To me, my characters are like my children, and even though I almost never get their faces or their clothes exactly right, it feels great seeing them come to life that way.
