I have Felix planned for one of my couples too if they decide to have kids.<br /><br />Thanks for the info about the poseboxes and animations you use for the birth scenes.

I've had one run of boys that I can remember in the entire time I've been playing this hood. So I'm always very happy to get more males in the hood.<br /><br />I'm glad you like the names I use. I'm a bit of a name nerd, so thinking up different sorts of names to use is a lot of fun for me.<br /><br />And thank you! I agree - I have some really great poses but many of them can look very stiff. I've been experimenting with the animations more and more and I'm liking the results.<br /><br />Thanks for reading. :)<br /><br /><b>Rachel</b>, Nick was such a cute little boy, so I would be thrilled if Thomas turns out like his daddy. <br /><br />Poor Asha indeed...it's a scary thing, though it didn't seem to worry her the first time she gave birth!

It's ...Poor Asha, I can definitely relate LOL! It's funny but the genders do seem to run in stretches of all girls or all boys. Getting an even number around the same time is rare. The names work with their parents' names: I like the way you use different types of names. Sometimes when I'm trying to follow a story and the names are too similar, it's difficult to keep them straight. <br /><br />Your shots look very natural. If you can use the animations instead of the pose boxes, it really does look better!S.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15236399168777815648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-41508755998076930352011-02-02T08:43:30.701+11:002011-02-02T08:43:30.701+11:00HCove, I love Sim babies too.

I'm kind of relieved that this is the end of the baby boom but a little sad as well. <br /><br />Asha can be neurotic at times, so her fears don't always make sense. She worries about a lot of things that probably won't ever happen. But in this case, her labour <i>was</i> really long, so that might have had something to do with it.<br /><br /><b>Drew</b>, he is! And he's very excited. I'm wondering how long it will take him to want another kid. Not very, is my guess.<br /><br />Can't wait to see your childbirth scenes in CS next time. :)<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-32264526802819753042011-02-02T02:53:48.483+11:002011-02-02T02:53:48.483+11:00Hey, Nick Moretti is a daddy!

I think we can safely say these two will want one. ;)<br /><br />I did feel sorry for Asha. It was like she had a panic attack at the thought of labour again. Luc probably wasn't particularly helpful but he was quite confused.<br /><br />Thanks for reading!<br /><br /><b>Riverdale</b>, LOL, I hope so! Thomas and Felix have some pretty handsome daddies!<br /><br />Thanks for reading!<br /><br /><b>Tanja</b>, I'm excited to see them age up too! It feels like forever until I have a toddler age up but Jacinta Nihill will age up in November. After that, they're all going to come pretty quickly.<br /><br />I actually use a few pose boxes for my childbirth scenes. I like to mix it up so they don't look identical to me. The main ones are Decorgal's Custom Modeling Posebox, which I use for the facial expressions. There is also a pose under Female Lying which has them on their backs with their knees bent. It looks very stiff but I use the parts posing box from MTS to adjust their arms so it looks a bit more natural. <br /><br />To have them sit up with their hands gripping the bed, I use the Nightmare animation from Aikea Guinea's animation painting. I love using animations in my pictures but I'm not completely familiar with all of them yet. I'll add that I like using the poker table animations for the fathers. You have to be careful with your angles, because they'll be sitting in mid-air but if you swing the camera around, you can make it look like they're squatting by the bed.<br /><br />Let me know if you need more help and thanks for reading!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-32108468284818471402011-01-31T18:58:53.121+11:002011-01-31T18:58:53.121+11:00Welcome little Thomas and Felix!
