    OwlowisciousAn addendum to the list I made earlier: The painting ones are pretty easy. I decided to make one of my Sims a full-time painter (Why? Because), and got the "proficient" and "brushmaster" ones within two days of quitting her day job.

    Nighthawk205Can this be completed across all Sims or must it be done with only one?

    An example on how to get this achievement quickly..

    1) Make your Sim have the artistic trait.
    2) Buy an easel.
    3) Attend Art lessons for $400 to atleast up your painting skills.
    4) Hit X and check out the Milestone for Painting. One of them is paint 30 pictures.
    5) Have your Sim paint up to 29 and then open up save. Make 9 seperate saves for it.
    6) This game works on accumulation so this works like a treat. Load up each save at the 29th painting to paint your 30th piece.
    7) You'll hear a noise that has informed you you've completed a milestone. Save the game.
    8)Load up 2-9 saves and paint the 30th painting. The achievement will pop up after your 10th because technically you've been working towards 'Leet Skillz' 10 times. But just in a different way ;)

    Press x to have a look at your sim's skills and press a for the skill journal to have a look at the milestones for those skills. It's worth mentioning that having more than one sim with the same milestone counts, as my final unlocking milestone was for repairing 10 plumbing objects, something another sim of mine already had. This means it may be worth focusing on some of the easier milestones, for example all of the handiness milestones, and 'specialist writer' for writing (write 5 of the same kind of novel, very easy/quick with sci-fi, fiction or non-fiction). For those of you who are boosting this purely through handiness, if you have a cruel/evil/kleptomaniac/criminal-career sim in your house, you are likely to get firestorms and earthquakes at midnight more often, therefore causing more things to break. If you need further assistance, using the 'epic fail' karma power on a sim before using an appliance is a good way to break it.
