Title: **BIG UPDATE-FULL SET** Hand Painted Skintone
Post by: Rosebud1773 on October 06, 2008, 10:42:25 pm
I almost didn't upload this... Took a look at all the beautiful skins in just this section alone. This is entirely hand painted, pixel by pixel in some places just to get the tone right. Done on the Maxis default skin, so it's completely from scratch. It will align with Warlokk's body shapes. Male and female share face textures.

(Female shown on fitchick mesh and with slight make-up, but doesn't need a mesh)

I still see flaws in it and itch to fix them, but I'm not willing to mess up a year of work. It has fit, fat and normal states with texture change. The elder male has a touch of gray.
Credit to AllenABQ for the transparencies. Here's the link for those, but you'll need to 18 to access the site.

If you like this peachy skin, I may follow it with a full set. For now, enjoy...and tell me what you think.

Here are the tan, medium, dark and alien skins. peach and tan are very close in color. They look quite different in BS vs. CAS..not sure why that is.
I've shown them on a variety of body shapes. Alignment with the nipple on male body builder meshes is less than perfect. If you're picky about that, I wouldn't recommend using these skins with those meshes.

Pale and a tone between the tan and medium added.
I may yet upload a zombie skin...not sure yet.
Happy simming..

Thanks hon!

Little piece of advice, as an artist: don't compare your work against others. That's the surest way to self-sabotage. Compare it against what you've done and know you can do. That's the surest way to see improvement and success :)

It reminds me of an old mid-90s video game.  Great job. ;)

Yes, this truly is amazing! It has very hight detail, in addition to a little sheen, but it's not overdone. I'd say this is as good as, if not better than alot of the skins out there. This is great, Thank You!:thumbrig::clap::goodjob:

Sure, won't be as hard to make a pale version as the darker one was. I'll just dig up an older version that was much paler and re-work it a bit. Should have it up in no time...:smile:

Thank you! It's gorgeous!

About CAS and BS. Bodyshop has different lighing than CAS. It's much darker, there is a way to fix it, over at MTS2 there is a program bodyshop mechanic. Once you download and install it, you can get custom lighing and poses, but I haven't did it yet, although I'm itching too.... :love7:

Wow now this is a nice set of skin tones that look just amazing.
I know how you feel about flaws and when I try to fix my flaws I seem to make it worse.
I believe this set is just amazing as it is.
Thanks for all your dedication and hard work.

Love the skins. Thank you.

I have a question about the dark skin. Is that linked to a BodyBuilder mesh so it's "showerproofed?"

I've downloaded it, but have yet to try it out.

All skins are linked to the maxis default body shape, but feel free to link them to any body shape you want.

Hi guys! I'm working on a mix-and-match default set for these skintones right now. There will be a choice between Peach and Pale for S1 and Tan and Between Tan and Medium for S2, plus Medium for S3, Dark for S4 and Alien for alien default (S5). You should see it go up in the next day or so.

Cool beans, let me know if you need any other choices for tones. I'll be uploading a zombie tone likely after the Creature Feature 2 contest is over.

For anyone looking for defaults of my new skins, here's the link to Engram's newest post. Thanks for the hard work in converting them to default.

I just had to say how much a specific aspect of these skins appealed to me. Close up the details look like an oil painting yet the greatest pieces of art in the world are oil paintings. What looks patchy close up, actually looks perfect from a distance. I love these skins, they are awesome. I'd love to see other work you've done, non-sim related
