Details of known issues under cut to save your dash:

These poses have been annoying me for months lmao. I made them last year but ran into a couple of issues: at the time, all-in-one horse and rider poses posed out of alignment when placed off-lot with TOOL, and I also couldn't stop the reins from clipping in game (they are posed, and don't clip in Blender). I specifically wanted poses with reins because I have a hard time drawing them in, as I only have a mouse.

My off-lot bug seems to have been solved, and although I still haven't figured out why the reins are slightly off in game, I figured it probably doesn't matter: in the time Horse Ranch has been out, I've noticed most people draw reins in themselves.

I adjusted them slightly to work with the gorgeous new medieval saddle and stirrups by @morningstarequestrian , since that's what I'd be using my poses with, but although the rider's feet are resting on the stirrups in Blender, in game they hover. I don't know why and by this point I don't care enough to find out LMAO.

I've kept the original placement of the rider's hands and the reins on the horse rig, so you can use it with the LeiaMaria bridle for posed (but occasionally clipping) reins, or with any other bridle and draw the reins in yourself. In medieval art, most horses are shown to have two reins (one decorated, one 'normal') so I think using it with Morningstar's Medieval Bridle like this works fine (I would have drawn reins in myself if I wasn't lazy). The poses work with EA saddles, but I don't have other CC saddles-with-stirrups so can't say if the placement is off for others. 

1890-1940 // portraits of caleb vatore

Made as a companion to these portraits of Lilith. I'll make these into cc wall art next, along with the sibling portraits I'll put up shortly.

As I said in the last post, I see the Vatores as having been born in the late 1930s/early 1940s, meaning none of these clothes belong to him and these photos were taken in like, the 1980s or some shit. I chose a short haircut for Caleb for these renders, but you're free to imagine side bangs stuffed into those hats. I know I will.

Men's fashion is a lot more limited, both in terms of CC and real life clothing, and the differences between cuts/hats/etc can be pretty subtle. This set isn't as historically accurate as Lilith's, and I'm chalking that up to Caleb being less invested in the whole affair than she was.

This is mostly @happylifesims - thanks for fueling my historical costuming frenzy :)

hc: caleb's birthday portraits

When Caleb was born, Lilith received a box of crayons and a ream of paper from their father, who instructed her to draw the baby. He explained that they needed pictures to send to her grandparents so they’d know what her new brother looked like. It was a very important responsibility, one he urged her to take seriously, so she got to work.

Lilith was two and a half years old at the time. Those drawings didn’t clarify a thing for her grandparents, but they kept her occupied while her mother, exhausted after a difficult labor, got a bit of rest.

A year later, while Lilith’s mother was busy preparing Caleb’s birthday celebration, her father once again approached her, this time with even more crayons and paper, and told her to draw her brother so their grandparents could see how he'd grown. These ones were a little better, but the grandparents probably got a bit more out of the actual photographs mailed along with the drawings. It became a yearly tradition, and she kept it up even after Caleb stopped aging. She still has almost all of the portraits, except the ones from his 4th, 7th, 29th, and 56th birthdays. There are so many now that storing them is a logistical challenge.

Caleb thinks that the collection is a fascinating representation of the vampiric existence. He, the subject, does not meaningfully change portrait to portrait, year to year. He knows that he hasn’t, but there’s something about she sheer size of the collection - literally dozens of paintings, all with the same face - that really drives that point home. On the other hand, they’re a detailed record of Lilith’s evolution as an artist. Caleb looks the same in every painting, but no two paintings look alike. She has changed and grown, though she looks the same as she always has. He's grown too.

There’s something meaningful about that, so every year, he agrees to another portrait. Thankfully, Lilith paints quickly and vampires can hold a pose.

Also, March 23rd feels like a good birthday for Caleb. I think that'd be right around Spring 1, if we take the equinox to be the beginning of spring.

Thank you to everyone who helped me reach 50 likes! ✨💖✨

Halfway there !

Tell me why was making Lae’zel was walk in the park but Shadowheart and Gale are giving me the biggest headache to make ??? Think it’s mostly my preferred “big ol’ eyes” which makes the other proportions look off ?

So still gotta do Gale & Shadowheart, redo Halsin and then my Tav. And of course wait for the Karlach hair to be finished.
