This project began as a positive outlet for frustration I have with a pervasive concept in our society that everyone should be model thin. I was delighted to find people like Martaxl, FaerieGurl, Warlokk, Melodie9, BeosBoxBoy, and Marvine (I may have missed some) make different shapes and sizes of sims for our game. What annoys me though, are people that feel they have to register their disapproval, especially on plus-size sims. I have been known to get into aggravating and pointless discussions with these fat-intolerant people, but I decided to find a more creative way to have the last word, and to remind everyone it's just a GAME. So I present for those of us who appreciate variety, “The Bod Squad”.

Tough Tina: Don't let her petite frame fool you, she is not to be messed with.
Big Brenda: Plus-size Power House
Commando Connie: Who says boys have all the muscle?

The clothes for all three are extracted Maxis career outfits that I adjusted to fit the different meshes. A big thanks to Morague at Variousimmers who unlocked them. You can find all the career outfits here:

I fixed the shoulders on the swat team uniforms so there's no gap like there is in the pics here.

Also a big thanks to FaerieGurl, Martaxl and Marvine for the different body size meshes I used.

There are 2 versions of each of these sims, one in the swat team uniform and the other in the super hero costume.

The 34A by 32 hips are very close to the FaerieGurl mesh.

Here is a tutorial to help you make any skintone and most any outfit have a special body shape: http://warlokkstower.googlepages.com/bodyshapeguide **



I’d love to see movies and pics of these gals, but no “adult” movies. They take seriously their role model status. Feel free to use the facial structure as a base for your own sims.

You can upload the outfits with your own sims you create if you like, and recolor/rework the textures however you like since they’re Maxis. If Morague isn’t fussy about the credit, I won’t be either. In fact, I'm no longer fussy at all about what people decide to do with my stuff. The biggest thing is NO PAYSITES!! For anything else, credit is nice, but I'm not going to get too worked up over it.
