1  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Celebrities / Jennifer Aniston on: September 26, 2007, 03:46:15 pm
Jennifer Aniston-I made a version of the actress depicting her before she got the tip of her nose redone.  I actually liked her natural nose quite a lot.  I like the chin the way it is, but if you want more accuracy you can bring the chin down another click or two in BodyShop. That would make it more like the reference photo.  I just sometimes sacrifice accuracy to suit my own tastes or to make the face move better in-game.  You can also decrease the eyes a bit, too.  I did that then decided I liked it better this way, with bigger eyes.  To each their own.  

The skintone is entirely my own, so if you want to alter it for your own purposes and include in your uploads, please feel free to do so.  I no longer maintain a portfolio over at MTS2, so crediting my username of SummerSong86 or SS86 without providing a link is fine by me.  The skintone is complete for all ages, fitness levels and both genders.

SIM is packaged only in Maxis base game clothing and hair, so you don't need to download meshes to open this in your game

Custom Content included:
Custom Skintone by me, SummerSong86
Brows: Eva Brows by Helaene--was at http://www.helaene.com
Eyes are Starstruck Eyes by Helaene, again, http://www.helaene.com

That content is no longer up on Helaene's site or at Helaene's MTS2 profile page.  

Eyeliner is by Rose at http://www.rosesims2.net

Clothes on sim is a recolor of a Maxis base game dress that I did. It's not meant to be high fashion...just very visible bright white so I can easily find the sim in BodyShop.

Clothes in Photo NOT included is from one of the stuffs pack, H&M, I THINK.

Hair in Photo NOT included: Hatted hair is by Helga86 of TSR: http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/helga86/downloads/sims2/body/hair/page2in85items/

Side Part hair is by: bunnyt0astx at MTS2

Midpart hair is by Peggy of http://www.peggysims2.net. It's this one
2  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Celebrities / Married With Children --the Bundy Family on: August 28, 2007, 02:38:09 pm
Well it's taken me a full year to get this where I wanted it to be...ta da...my Married With Children Bundy Family set!
 
Now you all need to know that this set was rejected at MTS2 because they insist Al Bundy is packaged with Rosesims hair recolors.  That has GOT to be some kind of glitch with their automated upload system--one that I have encountered before with Clean Installer--because I made Al myself, and that includes his freaking hair, using Maxis base game content only and his hair is just a small alpha edit and slight recolor of the Maxis shade.  If for some reason there actually is a Rose hair in all that mess, please let me know how to get it out of there!  I am running on a new Windows Vista PC and do NOT have Clean Installer, which from my understanding does not even load on a Vista PC anymore.  

They also say I need to strip out a mesh.  I have a Chriko clothing mesh that IS redistributable and has the proper Readme file associated with it.  

And then one other rule I violated was my reference photos --they've changed the rules on how to present celebs--must be side by side comparison photos so they can compare facial sculpts.  My set is a caricature of the real people.  If they're going to be scrutinized to that level of detail, I'm gonna get a migraine.  I'm not striving to copy real people into my game cheekbone for cheekbone--I just want to capture their spirit.  If you want something more, you can do whatever you want to my sims to improve them to your standards and reupload as you wish.  I'm not fussy in that respect.

Set is packaged as follows:
Al Bundy is an adult and packaged exactly as shown in the photos. His hair uses a recolor (by me) of a Maxis base game style.
 
Peggy is an adult and packaged with the custom outfit as shown, the required mesh (and Read me file) and Maxis hair.  The outrageous Peg hair is a custom recolor NOT included in the same package as the sim, so please Download the hair package separately below, and get the mesh at XM Sims site as specified in the link provided in the credits.
 
Kelly is packaged as a teen, and will hold her resemblance into adulthood (took me months to make THAT happen!).  Her clothes are Maxis as pictured, hair is a Maxis style.  She is shown with Raojena style hair described more fully under "Credits".  
 
Bud is packaged as a child with Maxis content, and holds his resemblance to David Faustino better as he ages, the best being teen, adult age being respectable and matches his adult mugshot better than I was expecting.  The child is not precise as I would like and is more of a cartoony version than photo realistic, but this is the price I pay to make him a decent enough facsimile through 3 age groups.  
 
I depict the kids' age progression for your benefit but again, the sims are packaged as youngsters to fit into the family package, depicting the early years of the series.

Hair included with Sim is by Maxis. Custom hair shown in photos but not included except as a separate downloadable package  is custom alpha and texture by me and uses XM Mesh http://www.xmsims.com/sims2/ehtm/hair/hair54.htm I learned how to do the alpha edit by examining work of this artist, bailelizabeth: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=218771 but used my own alpha edit and texture after examining how bailelizabeth got rid of the headband. You may use my texture and alpha edit for your own projects as you wish, without permission.
 
Clothing Mesh by chriko at http://www.2-f0r-u.de/startsims2.htm Mesh Included in Zip. Put in Downloads folder. Unzip Peggy Bundy package file and install into game with Clean Installer or via Maxis installer as you would do for all packaged Sims. Textures used are my own.  Yes, they are horrendous but so is Peg Bundy's fashion sense. It is no worse than anything Peggy really wore...LOL.

3  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Hunks / Zack, best friend of my Alexa Sim on: August 27, 2007, 02:20:41 pm
I have a young lady sim in moderation queue at MTS2 named Alexa who is sort of a Nancy Drew/Buffy mystery-loving, spook-hunting kind of gal.  Zack is her sweet, brave, loyal sidekick who tends to stumble into the clues for Alexa to analyze.  Both characters are adults but look very young sort of like Buffy in her heyday.  

Hair, NOT included: http://www.raonsims.com/item/detail.php?num=167&cat1=1&page=1&key= Roansims2  Number 19

INCLUDED:  
Eyes by Bruno of MTS2 Olivia's Eyes, Sharbat: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=229117
 
Brow: Helaene: http://www.helaene.com Helaene 0109 Brow Dark Brown
 
Clothes: Maxis base game
Skintone by me, SummerSong 86, and yes you can use it or parts of it for your own creation if you like it enough.

If it's not considered bad netiquette, I will upload Alexa here as well, since she may be stuck in the MTS2 moderation queue a long time, or rejected altogether, and I really want these characters available together.  I would have submitted Zack with Alexa, but his facial structure is too Maxis-like and generic for their criteria. I think with his skintone, brows, custom hair of some sort on him, he is very cute and worthwhile, though.
4  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Celebrities / Bewitched, Darren...Dick York on: August 27, 2007, 05:44:28 am
Vera Marina and I over at MTS2 were exchanging correspondence about what to do about a Darren for Samantha.  When she heard mine had been rejected (for valid reasons) she asked if I was going to try again or if she should try her hand at it.  I told her that if I found a way to improve my Darren I would upload him over here & she can take a look and decide if she wants to try to make her own version.

I have improved him enough to take a chance on releasing him. I don't think I can do any better without messing up the elements that DO work, so if Vera or anybody else wants to either improve my Sim or do their own from scratch & upload...please feel free and don't worry I'll feel "Jeez, don't they like my work?"  Those of you who know me from MTS2 know I've got one of the more easygoing attitudes about my stuff that you'll find.

Maxis hair, Maxis Suit. Skintone by SummerSong 86.

Everything included as you see in the photo.

UPDATE: Vera Marina's Darren was approved over at MTS2 and can be found here: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?p=1769989#post1769989.  He is AWESOME! I'll leave mine up in case anyone is interested in mine to morph into somebody else or for some reason prefers this one.  But just wanted you folks to know Vera's completed the couple and they're a gorgeous set!
5  Sims 2 Community Downloads / Sim Celebrities / Farrah Fawcett circa late 1970's on: August 26, 2007, 01:43:37 pm
This is my first upload to this forum, I am so nervous! I have been working on this Sim for a whole year, in tandem with a Debbie Harry sim I am still tweaking.  I have played the prototypes through all sorts of storylines and romances.  After a long hiatus from creating to deal with cancer in the family I got a chance to pick back up and refine my prototype Farrah.  Alas, Vera Marina on MTS2 beat me to it and uploaded a fabulous Farrah.  

Oh well I hope you enjoy my version of Farrah.  She is based partly off a doll I owned when I was a child and whose visage I still well remember to this day.  

I know the likeness is not completely precise, and that is intentional.  I'm not kidding.  I had a precise version and she was not as pretty, though the shapes and proportions were more accurate.  Farrah was a celebrated sex symbol in her day, but if you study her closely, you realize she did not have the facial structure of a so-called "classic beauty".  That makes for a funky looking sim if you strive for complete accuracy.  So I strove instead for a balance between recognizability and aesthetics.

About the download:
Eyes by Bruno of MTS2 Cybereyes, Army of Me  This link is to another of his eye sets, and when their site goes back up I will get the correct link to Cybereyes, but for now this at least can get you to his profile if you can get through at all: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=229117

Hair--Farrah is packaged with a Maxis base game bun. To get the custom feathery hair, please download the separate hair package file provided, but first go to XM Sims and obtain this mesh: http://www.xmsims.com/sims2/ehtm/hair/hair53.htm
This hair is a custom alpha edit by me but is a recolor and remix of this hair by Lushlesslady: (site down, link to be posted asap)  It doesn't show in the photo, but I after the photos were taken, I fixed the adult version of the hair so there's not an odd gap showing in the front.

Cosmetics are included with the sim and include eye shadow and eyeliner by Rose of http://www.rosesims2.net The sim looks okay without the eye makeup but maybe a wee bit crosseyed and haggard.  The eye makeup centers the gaze a bit better and improves the resemblance to the real actress.
 
Helaene Realistic 2-6 brows from http://www.helaene.com INCLUDED
 
Skintone by me based on Farrah photo and body model from Models.com
 
Packaged with maxis blue sweatshirt and jeans as shown.

The alternate hairstyle shown with the bangs lower down on the face is by Nouk, called Charming Hair, and may be downloaded from here: http://www.noukiesims2.net/

WHEN YOU GO TO DOWNLOAD, THE SIM FILE IS THE ONE CALLED SS86 FarrahFawcett.  The other file is for the hairstyle, if you so desire it.

EDIT: Extra, extra, read all about it...breaking news...stupid SummerSong somehow missed this awesome hair that is PERFECT for Farrah, by Rock Chick: http://www.modthesims2.com/creator/showthread.php?t=244428 It's not as poofy as the style the real Farrah is wearing in the photo, but I have other photos of Farrah where she IS wearing her hair very similar to the Raon mesh that Rock Chick edited and retextured.
