Animal Crossing: Aerith (FFVII Remake)

I made an Aerith dress because I really like her portrayal in the Final Fantasy VII Remake. I had completed this dress, uploaded screenshots to this site, was about to make a post, and then noticed during a cutscene that her dress has little diamond patterns that weren’t present on any of the reference pictures that I had googled. So, the pattern has been updated with the little diamonds that are barely visible when outside.

I used skin tone #6 because that’s what my Animal Crossing avatar uses. I may upload patterns for other skin tones as I do change my avatar occasionally. I swear that the custom patterns always look a shade darker than they do when you actually put them on. That always throws me off a bit when doing the colors. I guess it’s the lighting.

Animal Crossing Tools

Here are a couple of Animal Crossing tools and sites that I have found useful:

  • Turnip Prophet: If you are not opposed to mild cheating in the form of data mining, someone reversed engineered the turnip market information. There are several calculators available, but I like the interface and charts on this one the best.
  • Animal Crossing Pattern Tool: You can use this to convert images to Animal Crossing QR Codes. You will need to have an active Nintendo Online membership and the phone app to use your patterns in New Horizons.
  • Island Tune Creator: Easy way to create island tunes.
  • Nookpedia: One of several Animal Crossing wikis. I use Nookpedia because it gives gift suggestions for the villagers.
  • Nook Plaza: New Horizons item database. It’s one of the only ones (that I have seen) that shows what the customization options for each item look like.

Animal Crossing New Horizons

Suffice it to say, a lot of Animal Crossing was played this weekend. Was there ever a more perfect time for Animal Crossing to come out? I really wanted a physical copy of the game, but Amazon delayed my preorder (as well as literally everyones preorder for obvious reasons). As such, I cancelled the preordered and purchased it digitally.

Next house upgrade coming tomorrow morning as well as possibly a new neighbor.
My two starting villagers are Shari and Sheldon.

Also, super pleased that I can scan the QR code’s for the clothing that I had made in New Leaf using the phone app.
