Not-So-Simstober: a (love letter) 31 day sims challenge
A staple of the season, Simstober posts have been delighting our games and feeds for the last few years. Unfortunately, word on the street is our fangtastic friends @simstober are currently busy with other haunts. But the legacy of those years of magic lives on...
Help spread the spirit of Simstober with 31 haunting prompts. Use one each day in the month of October to create the spooky sims content of your choosing (edits, renders, lookbooks, stories, CAS creations, builds, etc.). Share your creations with #simstober challenge or #simstober 2023 so the team can know they are in our macabre little hearts. 🖤
And tag or hashtag @notsosimstober where the lovely @luverofralts has offered to make an archive of this year's posts! (My hero!)
If you plan on creating content that may be sensitive or graphic, you know the drill - trigger warnings, content warnings, and keep those babies under the "read more" cut!

There is my contribution for the day 3 of the @bobatrait's Bobaween 2023 !
Quite hard for me to find inspiration today, but I remembered a tattoo I've seen on IG (I do my best to find it again) with an alligator head mixed with a geisha inside its mouth.

So, my story FCi3 takes place in our timeline, but who’s to say that there isn’t an alternate timeline in a parallel universe somewhere out there, where Kris not only never becomes an accountant, but instead went all out on her nerdy, wannabe superhero dreams and became a paranormal investigator. A powerful one, imbued with magical powers that can vanquish evil spirits to wherever it is they may go. I don’t know, it’s just a thought. She just looks cool, okay.
Day 11: Villain
Not-So-Simstober: a (love letter) 31 day sims challenge 2023
Everyone knows that Rat Princess favours sweet children necks. Gossips do say that those small rat teeth can't bite through the skin of a grown-up person...
But it's better not to check it…
There is my contribution for the day 6 of the @bobatrait's Bobaween 2023 !
As a French person, "Pirate" also mean "Hacker". So I took this idea and was very inspired by the old overlay of the supercompter of Code Lyoko to do a Wireframe Flying Boat.
Character made in The Sims 4. Blue Shining effect, light in eye, boat and matrix effect made in Blender.

Being a teacher can be pretty isolating at times, and it's days like these that make Evan question why he wanted to be a teacher so much. He has 64 essay rough drafts to proofread by Monday, and all his friends are at Frankie's Birthday/Halloween party right now. Evan's not even the biggest fan of parties, but he would much rather be a wallflower around people he cares about, than be staring at all these poorly formatted pages, alone, until his eyes bleed.
Okay, so maybe it's not that bad, but boy... do his eyes feel tired, and the freshmen not knowing how to put together a bibliography correctly even after his instruction sure isn't helping.
