Star Trek: Beta and videos
Hey guys, I know I haven't been submitting much lately, but work has really piled on, but hopefully, in a few days, a new Chapter of ST:B will be arriving soon. On the subject of stories, I will also be working on a video chronicle of the ARIANA stories. I wasn't particularly happy with the way Ariana went, and I'd love to improve upon it. Much love, Rosaleena :)Violin! And Star Trek Beta.
Star Trek Beta, if you might have seen, is out, and I am doing very well for screenies, storylines .etc.
Violin, however, is taking longer to write. It is more of a story based on my experiences with.. everything, really. From work, to friends. Finding it hard to balance them both!
Well, keep reading, Sim lovers!

2 New story ideas plotted.
I have successfully finished one chapter of my Star-Trek story to be posted soon. And, my next story, violin, will be coming out shortly as well (this is a short story). I have decided not to release them at the same time, though. Violin will be coming out first.
Thanks!
Experiment IV: Chapter Seven
Experiment IV will now be continued in my blog due to moving sims 3 to another computer and the backup not being recognised.

As Tess felt herself come back into the dreary room, she did not open her eyes. She wanted what she had been dreaming to be real. Tess took a deep breath as she desperately tried to get into it. No luck. She then groaned as she rolled over, her skin rubbing against the coarse sheets.
The dream had been wonderful. Tess had been there with all her old friends who had been with her in Tykes' dreadful experimental chambers. Louie, Xena... but, as soon as she had opened her eyes, she had felt like crying, as they were not with her now.
Tess struggled out of bed and sat down in her chair, rubbing her hot cheeks. And then she remembered.
She had been feeling anxious as she had tried to get to sleep the night before. She had forgotten why, but now, as her mind was clea-ish from the regeneration (sleep), she remembered.
Jared had been taken prisoner. By Tyke.
Tess flopped her head as she felt the tears brim in her eyes. It had been her fault that he had been moved to one of Tykes' most nastiest 'chambers'. His prison.
"EX409F.. I know you're there..." Tess jumped as she heard a bold knock coming from the wall. As the vibration slowly moved throughout the house, which had been built with mundic block, part of the ceiling collapsed. Of course. This was expected from the aresnic house.
"Be wise. I tought you to be logical. Use your mind to calculate how long it is going to be until you the house collapses, and you die of arsenic poisoning."
Tess slowly crept to the wall, and put her hand against it as her ear met the thin wall. One word escaped her lips, "Tyke!"
Tyke stroked the wall, rubbing off the paint that covered the mundic blocks, "I've got back-up surrounding your house. They came while you were regenerating. You never heard it due to your stiff cycle. I planted something in your ear when you were first created - a sound killer. It is programmed to automatically start when you sleep. Explains alot, doesn't it?" He thumped the wall again. More arsenic crumbled from the ceiling. Tess shivered as dust surrounded her. She tried not to breathe.. this would be easy.. they were trained not to rely on oxygen.. they had chemical converters in their lungs..
"By the way, I don't think your biometric converter will.. covert arsenic."
Tess started to cough as the aresnic settled in her lungs.
"Give yourself up, or you will.. well, you can work it out."

Color Palettes
Color! What would we do without it?
I'm not going to bore you with a long list of what would happen without color. But first, I'm going to show you how to blend colour.
My forte is probably make-up.. I love creating eyeshadows and eyeliners, then uploading them to TSR. However, I've only uploaded one Eyeshadow at the moment.. it takes me ages to fiddle around photoshop with .dds files and what-not! Then when I finally get Sims 3 up and running (my computers quite slow), I nearly tear my hair out, because something has to go wrong!
Anyway, enough about my rant! Onto the concept of this post. :)
Many people get fustrated with matching colors. I certainly do - but I personally find it quite fun...experimenting with color! So here are some of my favourite colour palettes.
This is pallet #1
I like this set of colors - the first blue is slightly grey, and blends in well with the middle blue. The last blue is quite pale, and evens out the other colors. These colors aren't in any order (like darkest-lightest.etc) just a rough sketch of what I mean.
Pallet #2
Ooh nice sunset colors! Possibly my favourite palette. Again, this isn't in any order.
Pallet #3
Reminds me of toothpaste. I have no idea why? At first, with this palette, I thought that I'd do a combination of grass-green and bottle-green.. but no. I changed mhy mind and decided to go with a minty green and a sage(ish) green. Green, green, green!
Pallet #4
Quite like the blue one, except darker. This palette reminds me of coal.
Hex codes (remember that color A.etc is the color from the top. For example, on pallet #2, colour A would be gold, and color C would be brown)
Pallet #1:
A = #98A3CB
B = #5D6EAD
C = #D0D5E6
Pallet #2:
A = #D1B014
B = #B73939
C = #986B31
Pallet #3:
A = #A9EC74
B = #51BD84
C = #1E7A2E
Pallet #4:
A = #8B88A3
B = #645A73
C = #595959
More coming soon! :)
And this is only a rough sketch haha!
Tutorial
Well well well!
First blog post.
Here I am listening to Kate Bush and thinking of something to say. How about..
I submitted a tutorial!!
Yes, you heard correctly. I was such a newbie.. and with the help of Sinastras' clothing tut, I managed to find out how to make make-up. Does that sound right? Make make-up? *ponder*
I hope it gets approved. I spent ageees correcting grammar and everything. Wish me luck hehe!
