Well... I don't go to the same university as you do, but this brings back memories of my old corp-style marching years in high school. If anything, the next EP after Seasons should have something related to adding more instruments to the game IMO. Thanks for sharing, and I do hope you have great luck in making a female version of this!

I follow the MAC still.... a buddy of mine ended up at Toledo on a full ride for football.... so yea, I've heard a bit of WMU. I even got to see the band a few years ago (before you were a part of it).... and I'll say that.. they definitely didn't suck. I'm a little partial and loyal to TBDBITL... but that's just me.

excellent design on the outfit... a bit of recolor work.. and it could work for almost any military corp band.

My college has no marching band. I used to do it in high school, though, and this looks a LOT like our uniforms did. Also, CLARINET. I am still waiting for playable wind instruments. :p

Great work! :D

Everything is photoshopped. Am I really that good at it...? Yeah, they definitley need wind instruments in the sims though.

I hope this starts a trend. I'd like to see some MB uniforms of some bigger name schools (ie, The Best Damn Band In The Land [Ohio State], The Pride of the Southland Marching Band [Tennessee] and the Band of the Hour [U. of Miami])



... and yes, Sims need instruments.

Holy freaking hell, this is hilarious.

He looks exactly like this guy in my brother's yearbook.

(You have excellent photoshopping techniques, by the way.)

Firstly, this is really cool. I'd been looking for something like this for a particular neighborhood of mine. Secondly, I've seen you guys perform before! I've got a lot of friends at your school, and one was in BMB before he transferred to CMU last year.

Will you guys be performing at the bowl game in Toronto?

"Everything is there and highly detailed: there are seams on the gloves and seams on the pants (because he of course folds his pants properly and hangs them up after every game). I'm sure he's wearing black socks too, even though you cannot see them."

*cracks up, totally getting it*

Thanks for the awesomeness. :D

I love you on so many levels it's sick.

I've asked for this a long time ago and had given up. I was hoping for one that matched the llama cheerleader uniform from university.

I was going to ask where you got that mellophone, but I see you already answered! I played mellophone one year at BGSU and in high school. As opera_ghost said though, I am also "partial and loyal to TBDBITL... " so it's not just you! I would love to see a female uniform and instruments as well, but for now thanks for this!!

P.S. They should have included marching band in Universtiy .. oh well!

Yay! I am so in love with this, being in band myself. It is fabulous and looks even better in game. It makes me happy. The only thing I'm bummed about is the now-lack of any guard uniforms. I'm in my school's colorguard so I always thought that would be pretty sweet. Looks like I'm on a quest again! Great job!

Yay Cavvies!

He also looks like my husband because that's who it is.

Lasserine: Yes, of course we are going to Toronto, and we're going to kill Cincinnati MWAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

And thank you to everyone who apparently loves me. I won't recolour it though because it took so much work (a lot of it was hand painted and such and it took a long time).

I'm in marching band and this is awesome, thank you.
And thank God for the seams on the pants. When I finally learned how to properly fold and hang my uniform, I ended up basically doing the same for everyone else.

arg~! I am an uber band freak and have tried my own hand at making marching band uniforms. I gave up after I couldn't find anything to make a hat off of. erg...well, kudos to you.
If you get bored, take a look at my nerdery, you make my band geek heart happy: http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ff/c8bc7648.jpg
