[DU] Figure drawing masterpiece did not count toward Painter Aspiration
The last level of the Painter Extraordinaire aspiration requires the sim to paint 5 masterpieces. However, paintings that are in the Figure Painting genre that have the Masterpiece quality do not count towards the aspiration.
Here is the sim working on a Figure Painting that turns out to be of Masterpiece quality. You can see that the Masterpiece count in the aspiration is currently 3/5.
And here he is with his completed Masterpiece. Still 3/5!
This was reported a few years ago and confirmed many times in the previous bug forum, the last report being about two years ago, so I thought I would bump it with screenshots and a save file. I will note that some folks on that old thread theorized that the problem was the Sim starting it themselves, but that's not the case, I told this sim to start this painting. The issue is the genre being Figure Painting.
Here is the old forum post:

Here is a zip file with these screenshots and the save file right after he completed the masterpiece.

You can reproduce by having Taku (He's living his best post-uni life in a tiny house on the very small lot at the bottom of Copperdale) paint more masterpiece figure paintings. He's level 10 at painting so it would not take too long for him to reproduce the issue.
I am on a Mac, and I have no mods or custom CC and I never have.
