Drop screenshots of your favorite Sim and I'll draw them!

First off, apologies if this isn't the correct section; I just figured since I'll be posting Sims art here this might be the most fitting one. (And other Sims-related online communities don't allow "mildly related" content at all, so this was my best shot at anyone actually seeing this...)

Anyway, I've slowly been getting back into drawing, which is partly why I'm not actively simming as much. I didn't want to vanish from the community entirely though, so I thought why not combine the two?

Disclaimer here that I'm not promoting any services whatsoever, it's just something to pass the time and the doodles are all free. Just my way of giving back to the community!

So, rather than rules, here's a heads-up before you comment:

General Info

1. Again, I'm doing this for free!
2. I'm nowhere near professional level; this is just a hobby of mine and this particular project is mostly meant as practice, as I hope it'll be a great opportunity to try drawing a wide variety of faces / bodies.
3. All art will be posted on this thread only, rather than on external sites.
4. I'm doing this in my spare time, so the time needed to finish a piece will vary. However, they will all be posted in the order they were requested. So anyone who requests after you will have to wait until your own piece is finished.

Requesting

1. Drop a comment including your Sim's name and some screenshots as references (more on this in a bit)! You are free to provide more info, like their hobbies, dislikes, tidbits about their life and so on, but it isn't strictly necessary (definitely helpful though).
2. Please make sure your screenshots are of good quality. The resolution doesn't need to be crazy high, but I need to be able to identify smaller features (like freckles, for example).
3. Include screenshots from different angles! I suggest simply opening CAS for this and taking screenshots from the front, side, etc. The more references you provide, the more accurate I will be able to make it!
4. Please use a spoiler tag for screenshots! It'll save everyone visiting this thread a lot of scrolling.
5. I will tag you in the finished piece! Alternatively, leave a note in your request comment if you prefer a direct message from me.
6. If you want to use it as an icon, please let me know where you want to use it so I can account for the dimensions and resolution needed for it to look good. (Also, please credit me - you can just mention "chonkie on The Sims Forums" and / or link back to this thread.)
7. Please only request one Sim at a time and wait at least 2 weeks before requesting again.

And that's it! Again I hope this is okay to post here, do let me know if it isn't though! I just didn't really have any other place to go unfortunately.
So I'm hoping this will stay up and I get to draw some of your Sims :)
  • Excellent idea @chonkie I think this is a right place for your thread, but on the other hand, due to its location it seems to be for TS4 fans only, maybe if the post were made to this section, it would be better as it's open to fans of other installments who have fave sims from those installments, take me as a simple example, with only a single exception, all sims of my own I see as favorites are from TS2.

    Let's go a bit "off-topic" to show what I'm telling you and to have an excuse to see my sims in your art:

    And the only exception I told you in the 1st paragraph of my reply:

    Katherine, from TS3

    As side note I must tell you that I never was a TS3 player and Katherine was part of a "free gig" I did for a friend (about 10 years ago) in her Pc and her game.
