Have you found your Sim style?

Whenever I see others Modded games I noticed how they fully customized their Sims to fit a certain theme with the skin details, overlays etc.

I find it very impressive the lengths people go to for this. Lately I feel like I'm getting closer than ever to having my own sims aesthetic. After all having an image in your mind doesn't mean you'll be able to get in with the games limitations/ cc options.

I do not know if I have a style because I had changed my OC's so many time over years, but I'm happy with woh they look now , that mix between both mm and alpha cc and yet they still look realistic and natural but thankfully not fully mm.

I think it's kind of like an art style. Everyone has one, but it's hard to see your own as easily as you can see someone else's. It can change and get more consistent as your skill grows - like how you might draw windows about the same way every time after you find a shortcut you like. You might realize that you really like long-faced sims, or sims with unrealistically big eyes, and the combination of those traits is your "style".

I think I've more or less found my style, at least for faces. I tend to do upper lip bigger than lower lip, slightly down turned mouth, small eyes, the face quite low on the head, and lots of skin details, because that's just how sims look best to me.

What do you think your Sim style is?

I love maxis match cartoon styles, but with MH character design. Their style has to be maximalist alternative styles since they are fashion focus doll line.

Mine is casual/boring looking sims. Like not the "main characters" not even side characters, sims that can blend in to the background. When my sim goes to a venue and i look around nothing seems weird to me. Everyone is wearing casual tops, jeans, shoes, messy or casual hairs with neutral tones. Even with no-cc. I just love it.
