Vote your favorite famous sims for my new blocks toy!

I'm currently creating new designs for the base game toy "Tiny Teacher Nesting Blocks". 4 of the designs will show national celebrities and historical persons that relate to my game only, but the 5th version will focus on international faces (aka EA created sims). I now ask you to help me narrow down the list from 14 to 8! Yes, there will be only 8 faces on this version of the popular toy, meaning 6 from the list below will not pass!

To vote, please comment with numbers or names. You can vote for minimum 1 and maximum 5 candidates. I'm sorry that not all major EA made sims are involved, but I limited it to those with a minimum relevance to my own game's past or present.

Candidates:

  1. Judith Ward, Actress
    2. Miko Ojo, (karaoke) Pop singer and more
    3. Diego Lobo, Arts Critic
    4. Malcolm Landgraab, Wealthiest man around
    5. Venessa Jeong, Actress
    6. Marcus Flex, Athlete and Winner of my Bagged Talent Show (youtube link)
    7. Nancy Landgraab, Filthy rich from shady businesses
    8. Mortimer Goth, Scientist(?)
    9. Nina Caliante, Flirtuous Fling
    10. Bella Goth, the myth
    11. Octavia Moon, bestselling Author
    12. Thorne Bailey, Singer and Musician
    13. Morgan Fyres, Baroness of Verde (in my game)
    14. Agnes Crumplebottom

Voting closes this Sunday at midnight, but all votes posted before I will be counting early next week are valid.

    I wish I knew how to recolor items...maybe I could stop by this afternoon and you could give me a tutorial. I just can't sit still long enough.

    I need to do some adulting today so I can be free tonight...I'll text you when I'm 10 min. away. Cheers!

    I pick 11 and 14. 🙂

      Hi! I'm not the expert, but recolor simple items is not so difficult. You will need a photo editing program (ie PhotoShop) and TS4 Studio. There is a forum with tutorials for the latter. You basically create a new project based on an existing game object, then you extract a texture, then edit that texture, and finally import it back into your project. Like with anything new it includes some testing and failing, and objects can be differently programmed/textured so what you learn can not be used with just anything in the game, but once getting the hang of it it is super cool to being able to make some game objects more personal to your sims - such as a larger wall picture of them.
