Hedwig - Wicked Little Town version

[skeletonkiss]

(Hi! My first post here, sorry for not introducing myself first. Abit shy.  )

Ladies and Gentlemen...
Whether you like it or not... Hedwig!


I was really surprised not to see any Hewig sims or even clothing inspired by the movie, and after discovering Simmergirls' amazing website, I decided to make her on my own.


This sim is based on Hedwig Schmidt, from Hedwig and the Angry Inch. For those not familiar, I highly reccomend you watch the trailor on youtube. It's an amazing  movie.



THIS IS A MALE SIM.
Since Hedwig is a post-op trannsexual with a botched sex change, leaving her not really a woman but not quite a man, I stayed true to the character and made this as a male sim. However, I used a skin and meshes from Simmergirls site, which will give him a lovely feminine body.
The nipples on the skin do show, however because this is not a 'showerproof' skin, the body reverts back to the standard male body when naked, which looks alittle odd (like breasts have been drawn on his pecs, lol) but not obscene.

I had a hell of a time matching her hair, and this was the best I could do. If I can find a hair that looks like her standard 'farrah'-esque hairstyle throughout most of the movie, I plan to make outfits for most of the major song performances in the movie.


Many many thanks to all the amazing artists who've contributed to the content of this sim, and most especially to the Simmergirls crew for making this possible.

I love Hedwig! When it was on stage, it was in a theater half a block from my apartment. I saw it several times, and it just got better and better. You really caught John Cameron Mitchell's expression. Thanks so much for sharing!

[skeletonkiss]

Thanks! I'm really glad that some people actually knew who she is. lol

I really tried to capture that sadness that JCM has in his features through most of the movie...

I plan on doing versions for the Angry Inch (with zebra pants and 'Punk Rock' shirt), Sugar Daddy (kinda stewardess/school girl outfit), Tear Me Down (little jeans shorts/top outfit), and Midnight Radio, which will actually be a boy version. (Meaning, not in drag.) The Midnight Radio version will probably come packaged with another sim tho, since it's really stripped down with little content.

I REALLY need to find someone to make me her signature hair tho. Otherwise I can't make any of those.

awesome!!!!

[skeletonkiss]

I love it!

It would be wonderful if you could make a Frank from Rocky Horror, as well.  I hate the ones on mts2.

Ya know, that might not be a bad idea. I wouldn't wanna make him have breasts tho, so I'd need to use the mesh that is just shapely legs/heels but a flat chest. That might be hard since I think there's only one mesh for it, so I couldn't do his green dress...

Hmmm... I should look for Frank hair...

This makes me happy. ^___^

That makes ME happy.

Great job!  It looks just like her (him) in the movie!  I love Hedwig and the Angry Inch!  I have the DVD and CD and I listen to it all the time in the car.  I've never seen a Hedwig sim before - she'll be great to have in the game!

Love this movie! Great job creating Hedwig!

Love the movie, love everything about it. . .Mod the Sims 2 is being slow, but as soon as I can download every bit of it, I am getting this skin. . .now only if I can find some rocky horror skins. . .
