http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=110219Part of the
Natural Redhead Project: 2 full sets of recolors for melodie9's all-ages male and female mohawks. All color-binned and made with Legacy BodyShop. These have cleaned-up stubble, which actually matches the rest of the hair growing out of the sims' heads. (Except the leopard-print mohawks, which kept the original alpha).
Wonkiness alert: I experienced some difficulty with the natural recolors for this mesh. It's basically a sail coming off the top of the head, and it either catches the light full-on or it doesn't. The appearance of the same mohawk can vary WIDELY from one angle to the next, even with the same light source. Lights that have different color "light" (like the heavy iron floor candelabra) have a much greater effect than usual on the natural colors. True-white lights aren't so bad. The unnatural colors also weren't so bad, since they are much more saturated than natural hair colors. So these recolors usually look alright, but you may want to do a little light-related planning if you do a lot of storytelling.
EXAMPLE:
BOTH OF THESE FILES WERE MADE WITH THE SAME TEXTURE.
THIS IS AN EXTREME EXAMPLE OF THE COLOR SHIFT THAT CAN
OCCUR JUST BY CHANGING A SIM'S POSITION IN RELATION TO
THE LIGHT SOURCE.

The elder states for the 4 natural color bins have various appropriate shades of grey, except black, which stays black.. Auburn is binned in red with brown eyebrows, and Strawberry Blond is binned in blond with red eyebrows. The fantasy custom colors are all-ages. The punk custom colors all age to natural colors (red, blond, etc). I don't remember which ages to which, sorry. Also, while I liberated most of the mirror colors for this, I didn't do the female rainbow. Eh.
All of the colors have been rarred up by sex, and included in this initial post. If you would like to pick out just a couple of the colors, see the first two replies to this post.
