Sul Sul!

I’ve been working on this for a very long time, so let me just welcome you to my challenge. While playing some old challenges like Not So Berry and the 100 Baby Challenge, I realized that I have some ideas for a challenge myself. That’s how I came to create The Chromatic Legacy Challenge, and I’m excited to share it with everyone! This is a VERY colorful challenge that’s updated to May of 2021. This challenge is designed to get the very best out of the Sims 4, and I hope you like it! There are 15 beautiful generations with certain requirements to complete their generation! See how long it takes you to complete all the generations. When looking at the rules, if there are asterix’s next to a requirement, scroll to the bottom for more information! These generations require most of the sims 4 packs, so be prepared! Tag me at or @starrynightsimblr to share your beautiful creations with me! Thanks so much for playing, hope you have fun!

RULES FOR ALL GENERATIONS

-Like other colorful challenges, it is required that the hair, makeup, clothes, and house of your heirs ARE the color of the generation (which is listed in the rules of each generation) but skin tone can be a natural color

-Money cheats are not allowed! Promotion or skill cheats are also not allowed.

-The only kinds of cheats that are allowed are cheats that influence a babies gender/number and (if you wish) or need cheats.

-Script Mods are suggested, like MCCC, Slice of Life, and Wonderful Whims. To make it easier for the color part of the challenge, Custom Content is also suggested to make your gameplay more *bright and sparkly*

-Its suggested that no one else in the gamesave other than your chromatic family are color based. The idea if the challenge is there is this one crazy family that is color based and no one else is. In addition, spouses should not be based on colors because of this.

Tag me on instagram @elyseeriksen with a picture of all of your generations in cas, and another picture of all your generations in CAS.

MCC skins bonus round time! If this is the first of my MCC skin posts you’re seeing, I’m a huge fan of Minecraft Championship. I specifically watch CaptainSparklez, so I’ve made skins for his team before (the latest of which is here). But I love the Simmers too, even though I don’t watch them in MCC. Feel free to share this, just tag this post so that it links back to me. Thank you! Ok, more below the cut.

I’m using my reddit username as the signature, don’t worry I’m not stealing from anyone. 

After I finished the last skins I had the itch to do more. An itch which I’ve now satisfied. I debated which team to do for awhile, but I settled on the Sapphire Simmers for two main reasons. One, they don’t get enough love. And two, I just generally love how they’re a for fun team and they really embrace that.

I made them pirates because I was thinking about how they use the wool strategy in Battle Box to triumph over more PvP strong teams. It’s a very clever move to me and I respect their dedication to it. Also their fight with the Krimson Krakens in MCC7′s Battle Box is hilarious.

And I don’t care that they’re called the Blue Bats, they’re the Sapphire Simmers. So instead of a Bat, I put a Sapphire on the back. It turned out very nice, I like it a lot. I debated doing more shading but every time I tried it looked worse. And I’ll leave it at that. Alright, now for the individual breakdowns.

Starting with James Turner. I was getting a feel for the style I wanted to use when I made his. I really like the way the coat turned out. Actually I had a decently rough time differentiating it from CaptainSparklez’ coat at first. I’ve made a few variants of CaptainSparklez’ coat is all I’m going to say about that. Also his facial hair totally suits being a pirate. Which is a happy accident as I didn’t change anything about his hair. I just gave him a cool hat.

KryticZeuz’ skin originally had a much more open shirt. I even debated not giving him an undershirt. But eventually I went with this design, which is a bit more subdued. I think it turned out better than a more open shirt would’ve. Also apparently I really love vests. I suppose that’s not too surprising given the kind of themes I tend to go for. Maybe I should do space related next time just to avoid more vests. Then again I’m sure I’d find a way to add vests in spite of that.

Actually, speaking of vests, Dr. Gluon’s original design was a long vest. It did not look as nice. I actually debated changing his hat to a bandana (and then Vixella would’ve had just a ribbon in her hair). But I figured he could be a pirate wearing a fez. I’m glad I stuck with that because it turned out better. And then there’s just some standard boots. His design was probably the one I struggled the most with.

And finally, Vixella. She’s actually the first girl I’ve designed MCC skins for (which is kind of crazy). The hardest part about her skin was probably fitting the gem in. I did debate putting it on her bandana, but I didn’t like it as much. Actually at one point her bandana had a skull and crossbones on it. But it was too busy. Oh and I shortened her hair. I really didn’t want to, but I couldn’t fit the gem without it.

Here’s all the skins in case you want them yourself.
