New World Tableau: Thess Writer's "Just Kidding"

I love the weird gothic voodoo flavor of Ms. Writer's photo, shot in an existing scene she constructed and dubbed "Mannequin Afterparty".  (It's located in Unintended Water, a popular sim created by her and Cyro Spyker.)  "I added the skulls on the chair just to get a freaky scene," she tells me. "The light is made with a barrel with fire which stands at the right. And of course I used the environment editor. (I'm one of those EE addicts)."  So no after-effect elements were added to the photo.

However, she acknowledges, a clown was added.  "The evil clown is a gift I got from Demerick Creeley," says thess.  "I have the Evil Clown Joke-Maton (with lots of annoying jokes)."  So that clears up that.
