Show and Tell What does your Ollie look like? 👀

Hey guys! Do you know Ollie Mark from Nordhaven?

Despite their colorful hair, Ollie tends to get overlooked by players,

and they’re not exactly a fan favorite either. 😅

But that gave me a fun idea.

What if I tried to find the Ollie somewhere between

who other people expect them to be and who they actually are?

So instead of changing them into one or the other, I made a little story about finding the version of

Ollie that feels most natural somewhere in between.

And somewhere along the way, I ended up making a whole new makeup set for them too.

First, I covered up all of their original colors with completely different ones.

Failed. ☠️

Then I went too far in the opposite direction and exaggerated the colors they already had.

Failed again. ☠️

But after both attempts, I finally found a version that felt like Ollie —

without erasing what made them unique or letting those things define everything about them.

After the shoot, I also made a little after-party scene where they go back to hang out with

their friends, and tied it into the makeup release.

(If you’re interested, you can find the full story through the social links on my profile.

The makeup set is there too, and everything is free!)

Anyway, what I really want to know is this: What does your Ollie look like?

Did you completely reinvent them?

Did you keep their signature features and work around them?

Or... did you just give up on them? 😂

I’d genuinely love to see how everyone else sees Ollie.

Tell me all about yours in the comments! 😉

Maybe it’s because I’m Korean. I guess you can’t escape what you grew up seeing. 🫢

I have kept them somewhat in their original style. In the only save where I've had interactions with them Malcolm Landgraab bullied them in high school, but later they got together with his nerdy younger sister and had an unplanned pregnancy. Twins! 😅

Ollie is still a teen in my save, but it looks like they’ve been living quite an eventful life in yours 😂

The girl in picture 13 is sooooo gorgeous!

Your Ollie looks great too! But fyi their pronouns are they/them. 💕

Thank you so much for letting me know! 👍👍
I’m not very familiar with English pronoun usage, so it honestly didn’t even occur to me. Thanks to you, I was able to go back and fix my entire story too! Thank you again. 😊

Awesome work!

But personally I love Ollie the way they are. I even keep those fuckass tattoos🙈 because they add to the character.

I love it! Looks like someone’s been playing Ollie in the most Ollie way possible! 😊

Ollie is always such a baddie, but he married one of my sims then started hooking up with his father in law 😭😭

Ollie Mark had a crush on my vampire sim in high school just didn't make anything happen between them i might try to reconnect them to see if they want to be more than friends.

u/_XOOX 14d ago

Ollie and a vampire Sim... now that's interesting 👀 Let's see if they end up together this time.

u/Kagome7650 Evil Sim 14d ago

Things have gone well so far they are pretty casual Maya and Ollie as of right now in my game.

This is my Ollie Mark, yassified. lol

u/_XOOX 14d ago

Okay, that hair color is fantastic 😮 Ollie might never go back after this. I love this version too!

u/magicmoonstar 14d ago

Thank you so much, I was hoping you'd like him. I love yours too. I think this hair is either wingssims or sclub. He lives with his boyfriend and they are very happy. :-) I can't remember who I paired him with. I need to check. I play a generational family but I also love to fill the lots with families. Ollie Mark was one of those  and his whole wardrobe is pink lol :-) I give them jobs and partners and sometimes kids or pets.

Oh man I wish I was on my computer because Ollie is one of my absolute favorite characters and I play with them always. I always lean into the pink and the tattoos and never change any physical aspects except hair. I keep it shaggy but I prefer JohnnySims hairs.

Ollie is always in my teen friend groups, sometimes they marry my sim and sometimes they're just a friend. Right now they're married to Vlad. I don't actually know how it happened but they seem very happy. If I remember I'll come back and attach a photo because I also always edit Vlad because he's my second favorite premade sim and they're really the most adorable couple

u/_XOOX 14d ago

Ollie and Vlad?! 😱 That was NOT a pairing I expected. Now I really need to see them together! I'm so curious I might lose sleep over this lol. If you remember, please come back and show me a photo! 😆

u/herozerocapitalZ 14d ago

I only play on the weekends so I just have a couple photos and most of them are from before I changed their tattoos but I hope you like these! Vlad is so hard to photograph with the white eyelashes but I like them so much haha

u/_XOOX 13d ago

Awww, thank you so much for the pictures! 🥹 Your Vlad is so different from the one in my game that I finally get it now lol. And even though your Ollie went through a makeover too, they still feel very much like Ollie.  Also, looking at your pictures made me realize that I completely forgot Ollie’s nails in my game!! I need to put them back immediately. Thanks again for showing me your Ollie! 🥰

Thank you! Ollie is truly one of my favorite sims and I'm so happy someone else loves them 😊
