Lioden style has certain traits like realistic or at least semi-realistic style and anatomy, subtle shading, pencil-like lineart and a lot of detail. We need artists to try and blend in with our style in order to match the scene/art.

We do not nitpick. We want to explain, straight to the point, why your decor is not matching, and if possible, give tips on what to improve.
I'm just trying to provide as much hints and explanations how to fit Lioden's style better. I do realise it is hard, so I will do my best to help.

I've been there, I had to match many sim sites before and learn their styles, in order to have accessories/decors and I eventually got hired! yay.

So, this thread here is for this purpose:
Is your decor keeping with Lioden's requirements? It's best to know BEFORE you spend money and buy the Decor Maker, right?

Paste it here (or if you're shy, PM me) and I will PM you with explanations, WIP tips, or suggestions to change style or artist (unfortunately some artists know only "Pixelart" etc and they rarely will adjust fast enough to match).

I've been working on this for multiple days and discovered two things- sloths have weird anatomy and a lot of colors lmao. I wanted to check with you before continuing to adjust it for the female/adol poses. Is there anything I can do to make it fit with Lioden's style more? Perhaps making the fur smoother? Also, do you have any tips for the eyes? Everytime I try to make them darker, they look wonky to me.
Thank you!

This is just one of many versions but I have a question about the lineart. Should it be thicker and have less opacity? I know I have to fix some of the anatomy, like the stomach. Plus, I'm going to add in some more shading, more pencil-like that will define the fur.

I imagine this guy might need more fur detail? P:

Do you know if it would be possible to have someone make the images I need for the decor creator if I just give them the decor image with a transparent background? I cannot save png images with layers and such using my ipad, so I figured I should figure this out before I go buying the decor creator item, in case I wind up unable to make it. Thank you for any help!(:

Hi, I wanted to make an Achromia/Albino friendly decor to give my lioness the look of a character of mine I was wondering if this is on the right track as far as guidelines and style. does it need to be more sketchy?

It isn't finished yet, I still need to add some flowers but I thought it would be best to come here before finishing it.

Hello!

This is the beginning sketch of what I hope to be a new Decor.
Sketch and art is and will be by FelixVulpes (#6196), I only claim the species and character.

commish_lioness_by_wolfiesprite-d9umugc.commish_male_by_wolfiesprite-d9umug4.jpg

I know this is only a sketch, but Felix wished to know ahead of time if so far it was alright. She already has one custom decor being used, seen here.

Comments? Thank you!

Just wondering if this looked okay? I feel like maybe the flowers could use a touch more detail, but I'm not sure how to go about it D:

This is no where close to being done but I just want an opinion on the concept, And yes the makeup is supposed to look all messed up.

EDIT: re sized the picture because it was huge
