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).

hello Xylax! I've always been curious for teh idea of custom decor and I was wondering if this is close enough to your style to be accepted?

here's an example of what'd it look like [not including any shading i'd do] I've drawn Daffodil decor- figured it was bright and spring like and maybe a few flower loving lions would love it!

Xy - I think we talked a bit about it before? PM me if you need more input!

Hello!

I was wondering if my custom decor idea fit up to lioden standards. There are white tips on the flowers that kind of blend into the lighting, so I think I may have to get rid of those! The lineart might need a little fixing, too, but right now I just want to know how I can improve it. I also might add wrinkles into the flower petals. Thanks so much!!

So, if you could give me some tips on how to make it more like Lioden's style, as it looks a little out of place right now, it would mean the world to me. Thanks again!

Wanted to check to see if something like this would be alright, or if you had any suggestion to make it better, Thanks :)

Since I don't recall seeing anything like it, I decided I'd make a dodo bird decor for all lions! I remember trying to make a decor before, which didn't work out, and seen as I've improved a bit I thought I'd try again.

I do hope it is up to your standards ^ ^ I am not the best at realism or anything near the sort, and I don't have Photoshop, either. But, I would appreciate some suggestions for improvement in case it seems like it needs it. (I may bolden the lineart some more, I'm not sure.)

Hello Xy :)
I'm not sure if this would get accepted because of my style.

Aaa I'm sorry for submitting another so early, but I loved this idea and just had to act on it!

I think I'm going to narrow down the lineart a little bit, as it seems a little too bold at the moment, but I was wondering if anything else needed changing? They're supposed to be little feather antennae!

(Ps. Don't worry about the little white specks over the lineart, I'll get them fixed. :00 )

I have already done 3 poses for this decor, but I was waiting until the 3rd one, planning to re-do the first one. I am improving every time I keep on doing it, I'm just wondering what to change. I'm aware of the bolder lines and in the future I'm planning to adjust that, and I'm improving on using the colors, I'm just wondering how I'd get it to blend into the style more? Maybe if something is off, something like how to positioning of the necklace is, just basic tips for how I'd get this to look better, I plan on doing 11 other different versions so.. I may need some tips XD

Edit: Adjusted the image file to make it look better on the post :P
