Beautiful Sim Thread!

[Samantha]

I think that I've finally created a girl to model my clothing that I'm happy with.

[Zoe]

I have never, ever made a red headed sim before. I was looking through my sim bin, and took note of this, and was just like, "Screw this. I need some gingers." And out came this lovely bunch of pixels.

[Samantha]

I like her eyes, Zoe. ^




In-game born Sim named Edyth Thomas, a sixth-generation spare from my legacy. She has a really long, narrow face, and I think she's absolutely gorgeous. Plus I love those eyes and that eye shadow. Also it's my first time using a hair outside of Pooklet's families, despite the fact that I've had them in my game forever.

[Caitlin]

I miss this family </3
I totally forget his name. He was from my old ISBI family.
He was born in-game and I think he is totally adorable [:



Edit: MOAR PICTUREZ!

[Laura]

This is Pandeia, a born in-game sim and a second-gen spare from my current legacy. I think she's cute as a button and I'm almost sorry I didn't choose her to be heir; her cheekier, but also quite pretty sister won out. She has two children now, who are also shaping up to be lookers.

[Samantha]

^ Oh, my gosh, she's pretty, simey.



I've been annoyed with my CC lately (which happens to me often, like the seven-year itch of dating, but my CC-itch happens much more like after three months). So I switched out a whole bunch of my usual CC yesterday and today and changed up my models.

[legrande]

They're gorgeous! I love the look of the one on the left especially.





This is Dirk Dreamer from Pleasantview gender-swapped. He makes an adorable girl!
I was also surprised by Dustin Broke gender-swapped, because I always think his face is so odd originally.




(I'm creating a gender swapped Pleasantview in my Maxis Match game. It's surprisingly fun!)

[Samantha]

Oh my gosh ^ They both make adorable girls! Dustin is too cute.

More Sims whom I am shamelessly in love with:





The first is either a townie or a dormie named Amber Barthelet, who I extracted, gave some slight surgery to, and made over.

The second is Tyler Reiner, a sixth-generation Sim from my legacy. I can't stop taking pictures of him.

[Caitlin]

Okay, so I can't help but ask some questions. Sorry for getting totally off-topic.

Question 1: Legrande, how'd you gender-swap them?
Question 2: Samantha, what do you mean by "extract"?

Off-topicness over, Dustion and Dirk are adorable as girls, and Samantha those Sims are really pretty! I think I love every single Sim you make or makeover.

[legrande]

Ah, Caitlin, gender-swapping is only for the bravest of Simmers. However, if you think you have what it takes, I will give you a guide to this mammoth undertaking.

SPOILER: Click to show

First you must find three young goats (or sheep, if you're desperate), and they must not be more than 3 years old. This is vital; an older goat will seriously effect your results. Then you must build an altar of large plumbbob shaped stones in a clearing in some woods, no more than three meters high. On top of this altar, you place pictures of any Sims that have only spawned in-game and that you want to see in Bodyshop.
Then, either at 3AM or 3PM during a thunderstorm, you must take all three of the goats to the altar. Place all three goats on top of the altar. I hope you're not squeamish, because now you must sacrifice the goats! (I believe this answers your question to Samantha too, as now the Sims are extracted, and will appear in Bodyshop).
However, that is only the beginning.

Now, for the gender swapping, you must put a sweatband round your head and build and light a small fire near to the altar. Now, whilst holding a toasting fork aloft above your head, you must dance around the fire, chanting "EA!" Done correctly, eventually the chant will sound like this: "EEYAYEEYAYEEYAYEEYAY!"
If it doesn't, well...your whole effort is wasted and you just killed three goats for no reason. You may also be arrested for your efforts, or sent to a mental asylum. As you can tell, the chant is a vital step. If you've got it, excellent! You must keep chanting and singing until you hear the goats get up, perfectly alive again.
Congratulations! You've successfully gender converted your sims, and gained three goats in the process! ;D

Yeah, I'm kidding. It's really easy. Basically you need to extract the sims you want to convert with SimPE. I believe that someone did a tutorial here somewhere, I'll see if I can find it. Yup simey did one here.
Then, you find the extracted Sim in Bodyshop (or CAS) and swap them from whatever gender they are, to the other.

[Caitlin]

Hahaha! Thanks for the laugh, legrande (:
Also, thanks for the tutorial. I should really look around the forum before asking questions... -facepalm-

[legrande]

No problem! Always happy to help

[Samantha]

OMG, legrande ^.^

Yeah, simey's way is how I do it, too. Only instead of going File>Open to get to my neighborhood, I go Tools>Neighborhood>Neighborhood Browser, and select my neighborhood from there. Seems to save some steps. (And maybe I'm just lucky, but I've never found SimsPE to take that long to load for me. IDK.)

Also, I don't know if this is true or not, but in a tutorial that I followed, he/she said that you should always rename your Sims when extracting them from SimsPE.

And thank you for the compliment, Caitlin. It's all smoke and mirrors from the lovely CC creators, though. Haha.

[Cayla]

;D I finally got to taking pictures of my most recent favorite sims! That are in game.

This first sim I downloaded for the face (+ eyes) I re-did her makeup, hair, and clothes, but I love her!

This next sim is a guy sim I am so proud of! I rarely make guy sims because I have very little guy CC and their faces are usually wierd.

This sim is actually the girlfriend of the above sim. I like her because she is quite unique and she is part of my custom neighborhood sorority.

She is also part of the sorority and I love her name... Win Doe. Haha. Plus I really think her outfit matches her personality.

I just noticed they all have blue eyes. 0.0 I guess my green eyes phase has passed.
I am going to upload my pretty inborn sim pics later. xD

[Zoe]

I threw these sims together a few days ago to model a lipset I re-alpha'd.
