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'm making a lion decor, I was inspired by the adoring challenger decor, and liked the idea of making something with different base colors ;o; can you help me make this more ' lioden ' style? I like it, but I don't feel like I did a good enough job :c

Curious to know if something like this would be allowed? Like, making a full mane for a lion but adding something crazy like a bunch of black and white braids and some other sort of hair do-dads. Or are all manes restricted unless they are obnoxious/unrealistic colors?

vxdhf8.jpgXy: - this would be okay as long as there's more than just mane, like the flowers/bands, jewelry etc

Before I start working on some for all the other lions, I'd like to know if this would meet standards.

All right, I'm going to try and make a custom decor! I'm pretty confident that I can match LD's style with enough time and effort, but I want to make sure my concept is sound before I put the countless hours into photoshop to relearn how to do all this stuff.

So every-time I see a cinnabar lion I am reminded of my 90's middle school folders illustrated by the artist Lisa Frank (LOL).

So here is my idea:

photo 78562D23-1825-46E0-BD9A-B0435E354B6E_zps70a3i3th.jpg

Here is an example of her work: photo lisa frank cat examples_zpshnlwcfci.jpg

Here is why I think I have a chance: photo rainbow cheetah_zpszsx6a5ud.png

So basically my question is this, if I draw kittens in LD style, but they are colored unrealistically (neon) like the wonderful rainbow cheetah decor, does the concept meet with your approval standards? The cat's are not specific characters, and I could always name the decor 90's Folder Cat Decor.

Ideas, feelings? :D

Just wanted to double check that this concept would be okay - this decor would only be for Sirenomelia cubs.
