Sims 2 skin work.

It really hasn't progressed much so far- either the skin work or the game. My computer keeps freezing. I think it may be something to do with my hard drive setup- I've got two, the C: drive being the older one and the E: drive being an eighty-gig model I installed recently. I've had bad things happen more often since installing the second drive, particularly involving spontaneous reboots. I may be upgrading the whole system soon so hopefully that won't be problematic long... anyway, I did a little skin work and created a sim of John Constantine, like I said. Here are some pictures of him:

I didn't create any of these graphics; I put them together using Maxis Software's Body Shop tool for Sims 2. Someone else created the brown coat and boots and trousers; I merely edited the image to include John's usual button-down shirt and a poorly fastened tie. Still, it was really quite a lot of fun and I think I got him as correct as anyone who has no access to tiny electronic cigarettes can manage.

Got the chapter outline done.

I'm pushing my brain back into Hellblazer: Hogwarts mode one step at a time. First the John Sim, then the right music, then the outline for the chapter... I've actually got one or two pages of this chapter pre-written, but I'm not feeling quite surly enough RL at the moment to write John properly. Soon, though.

dragomorph, you wanted "A decent explanation for how the Ghostbusters could have defeated Gozer in 1984 and still have it happen six months ago in 2004", so here it is.
