Project ponderings.

aquilegiaIt occurs to me that sim guys are still sorely neglected on the clothes front. They have a decent selection of outfits by now, but not so many seperates--especially not the kids or the elders. Poor sods.
I suppose I ought to do something about that if it displeases me. Which it does, since I'm all about the seperates. So I will.
This means a project list so I don't drown in might-dos and have-I-dones.
Projects
There's a number of Maxis meshes I want to rip apart and put back together in new combinations, but there's so many of those I could be here all day making a list. Same with slimified default replacements of some of the hideously boxy male meshes.
I also want to figure out some genderbendy clothes for guys that don't make them look like pretty yaoi princesses or stereotypical drag queens. I'm kind of thinking about some skirts, but I don't know. I'm not sure if the fact that I'd dress pretty much the same if I had guy bits instead of girl bits makes me a good or poor judge of what would be useful. :P
... Oh yeah! Non-clothes projects!
Anyhow, that's more than enough to get me started and keep me from getting horribly sidetracked by other shiny things.

* I know, Maxis thinks chubby guys look like they smuggle bowling balls under their shirts and it looks ridiculous, but hey. Anal retentive completionist. Maybe one of these days if I'm feeling especially masochistic I'll redo the Maxis fat morph for certain meshes... but don't hold your breath.
