Kevin Hatch's beautiful coats of arms are a cross between the novels A Song of Ice and Fire (G.R.R. Martin's series of novels that served as the basis for the TV series Game of Thrones) and the Germanic coat of arms painting style.
The House Tyrell crest was not created by Kevin Hatch, but since it is an important dynasty, I created a version for the fans based on the original Hatch artwork.

I made some minor changes to this mesh.
I rounded the edge of the train and adjusted it a bit on the skirt.
Not a big change.
I spent most of my time editing this UV map.
The skirt and top are now no longer separated on UV.
It's a bit easier to create new textures for it
The mesh is an independent instance, it does not overwrite Sussi's original mesh.
But the textures of the original version don't match it







In the package you will find a psd file that also contains the new uv map.
In addition, I also included the test texture (cream-white lace dress) from the bodyshop, the alpha and normal map (bump map) image files, for those who like color actions.

In the past months, I learned a lot about mesh creation, conversion, and applying them to TS2.
I like to search for new and new things, and among the xps-xnalara stuff on deviantart I have come across countless interesting finds.

Important!
I'd like to point out that I make my non-Sims stuff without knowing the games from which it originated. I don't know what these games are about. I was informed only from the information found on the internet.

First of all, I'm going to bring you a pilgrim-era bonnet, which I found among XNAShane's excerpts.
It's worn by a rather scary little girl who, however, has exactly the kind of bonnet I've been wanting for a long time.
I successfully converted it to TS2, however during testing with kidinthenight we found it to be unfortunately too small and only suitable for very small volume hair wear.
That's why I made a wider and taller version based on the SkySims "Helena" hairstyle.
In the album you can find some suggestions for suitable hairstyles.

These past few months I amused myself by studying body and dress mesh making.

As a result, several franken meshes were created, the testing of which was taken over from me by the great team of the Historical Sims Discord channel.
A huge thank you to everyone!

Special thanks to the Metropolitan Museum and the Victoria&Albert Museum for the many images.

These outfits are made from the old rococo mesh of Sim Ages, and the slippers for the two more elaborate outfits are TS4 conversions from the original mesh Regal Sims.

(note: It cannot be used with his original textures, because the size and layout of the TS4 texture is not really conducive to more detailed textures.)

There aren't too many textures, but as time allows, more will be made.

I've been wanting a mesh like this for a long time.
I love the crinoline era, the excessively fluffy, lacy, ruffled dresses of the era.
Sussi's old crinoline was the basic mesh, of which I first straightened the skirt part - the first crinolines were made from this first with the help of Cakeyy and then LizCrea - then i added some alpha layers.
I used an also old Sims Markplatz mesh as a study, and since I don't feel confident enough to build a completely independent mesh yet, I used Schonnenschein's meshes


as a base several times. (Okay, I know it's cheating, but maybe this way I can be more sure that there won't be any problems in game.)

It comes with three textures, af-yf-ef, and the tf version.
One of the adult dresses is a white silk with lots of lace and ruffled sleeves, the second was inspired by a portrait of Empress Elisabeth as a young empress,



while the third is a dark blue dress with silver lace.
For the teen version, I wanted to make white in addition to the dark blue and gold lace, but somehow I ended up with only pink.
It has a bit of a confectioner's cake effect, but it's cute.

Note:
Due to the large circumference of the skirts, the arms sink into the dress - but those who use a similar type of mesh in a historical hood may already be used to this.

Hello everyone!
I disappeared, but I have an excuse. (it's nice how it is)
I have devoted the past period to studying and I think it has been quite productive weeks.
Among my many works in progress are bodyshop mesh repair, conversion and repair of jewelry, hats and other accessories, conversion of items from other games (for now only deco stuff).
And of course practicing the dreaded bone assignment.

But I also devoted a lot of time to researching these game extracts.

The place I found a real treasure trove is deviantart, where I've been sharing photos of my own drawings, crafts, and Sims 2 stuff for years.

If you are interested, you can find it here

The XPS and xnalara communities, like us, are a generous bunch who really pour out the best artwork and other game extracts.
(Note that I had no idea about this until I discovered "xnalara" on Mila Smith's - Mila Sims World website under some really cool stuff.)

In honor of the people who create the basis of my work, here is a list of those to whom we owe these beautiful meshes and textures
VERY IMPORTANT!  Strictly MATURE CONTENT!
These excellent creators do not make their creations for children. Be careful and, if possible, be free of any prejudices! Thanks!

Since I'm still taking horribly bad in-game photos, I asked for help and got it. Kidinthenight (Historical Sims team) and Epo (PBK) undertook the testing and the photography as well.

Musketeer hat from Lineage 2 Revolution mobilgame. Original conversion Vlthar 
There will be a male's version soon


Ring of Emperor Emhyr var Emreis (The Witcher)



"Lannister" recolor


Separated collar from the dress of Grand Duchess Katharina by Lowedeus. It doesn't have Maxis size yet, but it will.




A "franken mesh".
The barbette hat was made by Wawa, the veil was part of one of Helga's hairstyles.





Bipsouille's Tudor or French headdress, which was also part of a hairstyle.
I struggled with it a lot before it became a stand-alone accessory.
I sincerely thank Theraven, who hastened to help me with his good advice here as well.
The veil is Cynnix's Simple veil because the original veil became unusable after export.

The necklace comes from The Witcher game. Its original extract and xnlara conversion are the work of Moogleoutfitter, re-uploaded to Deviantart by SonYuMe.



This bonnet is made of Cynnix's Flemish Hood and Mussi's sailor bow, which I designed especially for my Hungarian clothes. LizCrea helped put this into final form.
I thank him for a lot of help and inspiration.



This decorative comb is my greatest pride. I created it from pieces of The Witcher jewelry.


This collar is by Kozakowy. You can see it here with the corresponding clothes and jewelry.

The outfit was converted by Lezishell.



Kidinthenight's photos:




This was the first version of old hat.
We made the final version with Cupcakeyy, in which the flowers are not like this. The reason is that the polygon count of this version was a bit high, and I was unsure about that, so I sent another mesh to CK instead. But in the end - I think - everyone decides for himself what his machine can handle.
I cut the hat from a VitaSims hatter's hair and then put different decorations on it. The feathers - if I remember correctly - come from one of Lidiqnata's hairstyles, and the flowers from one of Ran417's beautiful Chinese flower arrangements.




Another necklace from Princess Anna Henrietta's treasure chest. (The Witcher - Blood and Wine)
And there will be more.
These jewels have a great feature. The gems are surrounded by an alpha-editable socket, which gives me quite a bit of room for my imagination.




TS3 conversion. The texture is not very good. But this is just a test.
The TS3 collection called India Inspire - or something like that - included two beautiful hairstyles that had the jewelry removed during the conversion. Fortunately, only with alpha editing, so the mesh of the jewels remained on the mesh.
This one belonged to a beautiful hairstyle called Elegant Teardrop.
Now it is a piece of jewelry that can be used independently.
And as you can see in the photo, it looks quite good on other types of hairstyles.

   
The Beauclaire-necklace. Also Witcher stuff.
Among the characters extracted by Mougleoutfitters, it is worn by a lady from Beauclaire.



Anna Henrietta's tiara. I plan to make it as a crown as well, because now it's just a semicircular piece of jewelry.



Oh, the Tangled tiara. Attention, highpoly.
But it was so beautiful that I couldn't miss it.



Another cute photo of the Spanish collar, which - as you can see - looks good even on a Regency lady.



A truly queenly tiara converted from the Smite game by Lezishell. I brought it from him.
I don't know the game, so I don't know who Chang'e is, but the lady has a few other cool things that I plan to "steal"



XNAShane  among his conversions, I found a rather scary little girl, who, however, has exactly the kind of bonnet I've been wanting for a long time.
I successfully converted it to TS2, however, during testing we found with kidinthenight that it is unfortunately too small and can only be used for very solid-sized hairdos. That's why I made a wider and taller version, which was based on SkySims "Helena" hairstyle.

My own meshes and their recolors

Dear Everybody!
I’ve been chewing on this problem for a long time, and now I’ve finally come to a decision.

It is best to acknowledge the limits of our abilities and not waste time on "impossible missions" for us.

I accepted the fact that bodyshop mesh making is not my "specialty."
Every time I get to the point where the dress, or some accessory is ready in Milkshape, fits the “sim” everywhere, but what follows is already a series of nightmares and failures for me.

So I came up with the following solution:
Ms3d., Or obj. format finished stuff with test textures and preview images, packaged, uploaded and shared here and on my Dreamwidth page.

If someone feels like moving on with the workflow of a particular item, do so boldly.

I just want three things:

1. Indicate here on Dreamwidth, in a message, or in a post in Plumb Bob Keep that you have taken over the job.

2. Respect the original creators listed in the attached txt. Credit goes to everyone.

3. Share the finished mesh and at least one texture here or on the PBK. And wherever you want.

List of things to share:

Women's clothes - historical (regency, mediavel, other)

Man clothes - historical

Weapons to make a bodshop an accessory.

3D jewelry - conversions and my own works

Men's and women's hats, headscarves

bags, belts, capes - conversions

Hairstyles - Frankenmeshs and Conversions

Thanks
Mari

This is a new frankenmesh made by LizCrea, with my little contribution.
It is based on the RoseSims fantasy-anime menswear net.



The boots were converted from TS4, the post-editing was done by me.

Adult male only and LBB version only.

The SFS folder contains a package in which you can find the mesh and UV maps.
