Haven't been doing much coloring lately. 
My sister had a baby boy on June 1st.
My other hobby is cross stitching and I have cross stitched my 2 girls and 2 nieces their own christmas stockings and now I am working on my nephew's! I want him to be able to have it in time for this Christmas

Augusta as in Willy's Dona? Pretty! Congratulations to your sister!

Here's my recolored verison. I like it alot better than the first one I did!

Here are some examples of what *I* think their hair probably looked a lot like. When I get my Sims working, I'm going to use these colors as close as possible and see what it looks like.
For Olga, I think the hair color this woman has on the right side is a good match. Under the right light, it could look blond.

This probably matches Tatiana 100%

Maria.

Anastasia.

I couldn't find anyone with Aleksey's possible hair color, but I did find this...

Yep, those colors are pretty close! I know it's hard to find the right hair for OTMAA. Trust me. I've looked.

You should upload the houses on the Sims exchange!  I'd love to use them.

hahaha! Me too! (Hi Lanie! )

This one is for you, Romanovfan, and thank you for your nice comments.

Thanks, Isabel!

well, while i was studying european genealogy i noticed a lot of simmilar ties. people tended to marry cousins, first, second, third degree... and so on... actually, not people just royals although i'm sure it happened to normal people too

Wow! I never even thought of the Romanovs being at all related to the Tudors! Very interesting! And about the cousins, especially with royals, they did tend to intermarry. Even today in the modern monarchies:

Mihai I of Romania and Anne of Borbon-Parma are third cousins
Elizabeth II and Prince Philip are second cousins, once removed on the Danish/Greek side, and third cousins on the British side.
Olaf I of Norway and Martha of Sweden were first cousins (not so modern-day but, you get the point).

Nicholas II of Russia and Alix of Hesse were second cousins through Marie of Hesse-Darmstadt (although she was thought to be fathered by someone other than the grand duke of Hesse) and through Alix's Hessian grandmother on her father's side.
