Title: All-Age Recolors of Rose Sims2 FEMALE Unisex Pixie Hair
Post by: kaneonapua on January 09, 2007, 11:19:00 pm
Four red, a rich brown and a white recolor of Rose Sims2 (http://www.rosesims2.net) unisex pixie hair mesh for females. The male recolors are posted in a thread in this section. These are simple recolors of Rose's textures with original alphas. Thank you, Rose, for allowing me to do these recolors.


These recolors were done for the Natural Redhead Project (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?p=1470508#post1470508) to make more hairstyles available in the many beautiful naturally occurring shades of red hair.  The red recolors are available in four shades: auburn, copper, ginger and strawberry blonde. There is also a rich shade of mid-brown and an ice white.  The recolors are color binned red except for brown (binned brown) and white (custom). It may seem odd to put shades that range from rusty blonde to brown red in the red bin but the goal is to make the full spectrum of red shades available to genetic redheads.
 
The pixie style comes in toddler through elder. The elder hair comes in two shades: brown and auburn have salt and pepper while copper, ginger and strawberry blonde come with an ivory white shade. The white custom color is white for all ages. The toddler hair is the fine, sparse Maxis toddler hair. The original female textures have a bald toddler hair so I substituted this texture. I recolored the toddler hair to approximate the other ages' color.

Mesh Information: The mesh comes with 5 colors at Rose Sims2 (http://www.rosesims2.net) in Download > Hair.  It is currently on page 9. The file to download is rosehair_0025.zip The name of the unipped mesh file is MESH_RoseHair_0062.package.

Red hair is a simple recessive (http://www.thetech.org/genetics/ask.php?id=44)

These recolors may only be used in Sims distributed by 100% free sites. Do not distribute or include the mesh in any uploads! Link to the http://www.rosesims2.net and provide directions on how to locate the mesh in the Downloads > Hair.

FYI - the custom content in the photo's models are free downloads unless noted:
Freckles: the freckle and eye set is from Alkaloid at Insimenator (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=31304) and the freckle "blush" (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=32684) is also from Alkaloid.

Skin: JWilson5's Hairy Skins for Redheads (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=32584) which is a modified Louis (SimScribbing) skin with AllenABQ body hair. The skin for the normal Maxis body type doesn't require any additional meshes, just download  the Norm-HairyRed-Barbie.rar file for hairy,   SKN-Norm-XhairyRed-Barbie.rar  for extra hairy and SKN-Norm-XXhairyRed-Barbie.rar for extreme hairy (Not to worry, only the males come with body hair ;) ).

Clothing: Earth-toned gown (http://freearea.peggysims2.net/femaleadult.do?direction=older&curtenpage=140&key=null)  from PeggySims2 (http://www.peggysims2.net/index.htm)

Eyeliner: eyeliner is the 0036 makeup file from RoseSims2 (http://www.rosesims2.net/)

Eyebrows: by Helaene and converted to default eyebrows by Sciberg at ModTheSims2 (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=164632)
