All the stuff you made yourself is fantastic, especially the mermaid skintone & facemask - they're beautiful. And the lips on the mermaid are awesome - they're so cold & they really make the sim actually -look- like a underwater creature. I really like how you went with the original Hans Christian Anderson story instead of the crappy, happy-ending Disney version.
Anyway good luck with the contest!!

Absolutely stunning! I love her eyes (well, I love all of her, but especially her eyes especially) - so soulful. Best of luck in the contest!

Thanks everyone! Sandicee: I've been obsessed with mermaids all my life, and I actually enjoyed the Disney cartoon, though the original story is better, I think. It was a lot of fun to use what I know about stage make-up and underwater creatures in making a mermaid skin. Thank you so much for your support!

nixnivis: Hey dude! I'll be making a series of different coloured eyes from the eyes in this sim! Probably some time in the next couple of weeks! :D

this is simply beautiful. the facemask and the lips look amazing and must have taken forever. I too prefer the Hans Christian Anderson version of the story and its nice to find a mermaid that mirrors the origonal story rather than the Disney.

Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative

She is so gorgeous!! This is my favorite fairy tale!! :D

I am having issues with downloading the mermaid version of her though... I just get empty packages in the Sims2Pack Clean Installer. The human version worked just fine.

When I try to download the mermaid version instead of allowing me to install the sim it brings up the message:
"Please double click a custom content package file to install the content"

#17 Old 28th Nov 2007 at 4:11 AM
I just tried it again and it's still showing empty packages on the clean installer.

This is really frustrating, I really wanted the mermaid version in my game!

Hmm. Weird. I'll reupload the file. I'm having issues myself at the moment with rootkits screwing with my custom content managing programmes. I'm quite unable to get inside the package to look, but I'll repackage her and try again.

I'm not sure, but the package is named:
The Little Mermaid by Naceygirl..Sims2Pack


See the extra period between nanceygirl and sims2pack? Should be .sims2pack. I think.Hmmm

I'm worried that my latest Salvation Army donation will result in homeless people looking like sluts from the 90s.
