The African Sim

A happy Simbr celebrating, collecting and reblogging African themed custom content (tagged as africacc) - I also make custom content (tagged mycc). I blog non Sims stuff sometimes (tagged nonsims) especially if it celebrates or supports African heritage and history.

Peace be upon you, enjoy the site and feel free to message me!

TheAfricanSim’s West African Wedding Dress (BGC)

It’s my most complicated recolour-retexture yet as every single fold and section was individually mapped/planned/tweaked/painted, but I would expect nothing less for an African wedding dress that so often is hand stitched and exquisitely designed. There are 3 swatches - “Jacqui” - dedicated to @pedanticbohemian who is a wonderful friend and loves fan textiles, “Danielle” dedicated to my lovely birthday twin @ebonixsimblr (our birthday was this week), and “Nkiru” dedicated to @nigerian373 and her upcoming wedding!! And a big shoutout to @lcsims who cheered me on to finish it, hopefully I am in time for her to use it in the beautiful Sims wedding she has planned!
