Violet: “That one looks like a heart.” – Lionel: “I’m not seeing it.”
“Have you ever done this before?” – “Once.” – “You’re so cool.”
Violet: “Ooh, they have avocado burgers!”
Leonel: “Are you sure you don’t want to order from the Kids Menu?”
Violet: “Hey! Just because I’m short doesn’t mean I’m a kid!”
As it turns out, Violet has a crush on an older boy (by a week?). They used to hang out as kids, and sometime after he aged up he asked her to play hookie with him. She ages up in a day I think, so she went along.
They cloud-gazed for a while, then went to get lunch and chatted until 5pm or so.
You can imagine that Alice was pretty P.O.ed when she found out.
Every time Corbin goes to work, the twins get sad, so right before she goes to school, Violet will play Astronaut with them or comfort them. It’s very cute. =D
Who wants a few toy recolors? I do! Oh, you do too? Well I guess I can share… (grumbles).
Just kidding!
With toddlers I realized how poor the toy situation is; giving every little one the same Mrs Meowness seemed silly. So I dug through the toys for items with either a single color, or extremely blurry textures. These are the first few.
With the Palomino, I just wanted to adjust the highlighting, and add a few new colors. Mrs Meowness was easy, clean up her face detail and throw a few different colors over her. For McButterflyFace, the textures seemed faded and blurry; I traced over and kept the spirit of it as best I could, but they are brighter and cleaner. The third swatch was basically an inversion of the first, so instead of that I made a funny looking Monarch. 😉
These are not high quality recolors, just something I had fun with, and am sharing in case anyone else is interested in them too. I did double the texture size to allow for easier editing and cleaner lines; if that bothers you, feel free to export them in s4s and shrink them back.
Each toy has a Default and Non-Default package in its folder for you to choose from. Please feel free to use the Layers files posted below as a starting point for more or better recolors, I don’t care. If you do, PLEASE link it to me so I can grab them too- More is always better! 8D
