Post by: MaryH on July 13, 2008, 08:17:29 pm Get some realistic skin tones..there are some nice ones here, and also at MTS. Get some realistic eyes and hair, as well.
I'd use a photo of the person in question, with a full face and side profile to make sure it looks like them. It is difficult to totally recreate real people in the game, but with a little effort, you can come close to it. I've made myself and I must say I look pretty good-even though it's at a younger age (by about 20 years)! Good luck. Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person?

anyone else? Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person? Post by: danceswithwands on July 14, 2008, 01:16:02 am Look for things like add ons for the face- shadows, eye circles/bags, freckles etc... there's a whole slew of them out there... and you will find that a skintone makes a huge difference- some of the ones made for celeb sims work nicely because they've been enhanced a bit. ;)
Work on the facial features that strike you the most prominent/unique... if someone has great eyes then that is the thing you want to get the closest to... that way the little things you can't get perfect won't be as obvious. Make one sim that is roughly what you want - then when you get to a point you can't get it any closer- save it. THEN go back and clone that sim and work on it some more. (I had to make about 4 or 5 to get you looking like you... lol) Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person?

Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person? Post by: Kivak on July 14, 2008, 04:28:38 pm Only one other hint. Use the grid method artists use for proportions.
I watched my GF do sim me, and thats what she did measured my eye length compared to face width and so on, it came out looking like me without laugh lines of course and my hair is much straighter and I have kind of half bangs but there is no hair like that this one is closest. My avi is what she made of sim me :) Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person? Post by: puppyluver0811 on July 15, 2008, 01:32:09 am thanks

Practice makes perfect too. The first Sims I made were ugly! Now I make okay ones not as good as my GF though Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person? Post by: geezy33 on July 19, 2008, 11:05:11 am Well, to make a sim look real, First step from me...
1.) Download Sazi's Face replacements at MTS2 2.) Download Rensims Skintones,louis skintones,Enayla skintones these what I use. 3.) at Sim cribbing download louis Blush face mask this will sparkle your sim's face very realistic. 4.) Grab some Realistic lips. I perfer A.S.K lips they are very realistic lips. 5.) grab some hairs, if u make black sims, feel free to download my hairs in the male hair Thread here. 6.) find a pic of a real person, Carefully Study his/hers face will, My art teacher once told me, if u mess up on a pic of a person,it don't matter messed up they like, keep tryin' till u get it right. I kept this sayin for a very longtime,To me, simming is very easy and simple to do, u got be patiance and take your time when doing a face, trust me the more u do it, the better u become. take my advice dude u can do it Happy simming Title: Does anyone have tips on how to make a Sim look like a real person?
