So I was looking at how to make skins on the net since I'm up and bored lol. I was playing around with Subaxi(WatermelonField)'s baby Default skin and thought I'd show you all what it looks like. Lol I think i need to play around with the nostrils some more. But I don't even know if it would be fair to try and release this. I don't want anyone to think I'm stealing it and calling it my own. It doesn't seem to be uploaded anywhere so I don't know her policy. Anyway, I edited out the dolly-like features and made the skin coloring more realistic. I also changed the eyes to a neutral darkish brown/grey/green-ish...Lol and new lips and eyebrows plus more noticeable nipples (Because babies have nipples too darnit!!). Maybe I should attempt a light dusting of brownish neutral hair? I hate that infants are always bald...

Here is the original:


Here is my version on a randomly spawned test-tube infant lol

EDIT: Ok so I edited a bit more...lol Does the fuzz look ridiculous? Maybe I should just leave it bald??

Bumpish lol

KK, the edited version looks great! It's a lot more realistic and 100x less creepy. So adorable.

There are a lot of creators who release skin blends, so I think it's fine as long as credit is given. All of Buffy's skins are technically edited blends (She's used textures borrowed from Shyne, Papercat, Oepu, Ephemera, M.Calero, etc)- but they're awesome (and I have every one)! Gelydh also blends skin.

I think that they look great!

Hmmm Maybe I should add a light touch of hair??

That's a great idea. I think that would add nice texture and realism

Hahah, I was born with a full head of hair - to the point where my mom said I looked like a little monkey. :p

LMFAO!! That's adorable! I had hair when I was born too :3

Yay for fuzzy babies and this awesome baby skin!

This is look great & a lot realistic ! I always thought one of the downfalls of TS3 compared to the TS2 is the babies & toddlers. The babies are so ugly and in TS2, they at least had arms & legs. I really love this skin though

The skin looks great Kosmo !! Great idea by the way as there's not that much around for sim babies in general !

Bump

Love it!! I think this is awesome, a lot more realistic than the old skin and you are so right, babies have nips too and shouldn't be discriminated. Also, I too was born with a full head of hair as was my son!! So I think a light fuzz on top wouldn't be a bad thing.

Lol I think my fuzz looks a bit weird. And idk if anyone would be mad for me releasing this? Lol if I did maybe I should just release two version? One bald and one with fuzz?

The hair kind of just looks like dark spots on there heads, but that's just my opinion. Maybe you can download hair texture brushes to make the hair strands look more defined.

Thats what I was thinking too. Lol its a work in progress xD I can't find any good hair brushes for gimp >___< I've been looking.

What version of gimp do you have? I have GIMP 2.6.11 & I can install Photoshop brushes. I know that there's more & better brushes for Photoshop.

Lol I'm using whatever the latest version is atm because I to redownload it for my laptop. Idk what version that is.

The latest version should accept Photoshop brushes

Wow! I love it And for the hair thing, unfortunately, I have looked too, and haven't found anything. I don't have a graphics tablet either. Your best bet would be to lightly do it with the smallest possible paintbrush, and then smudge it. ;) I haven't actually tried a skin like this before, so I'm not sure lol.

Lol I think I'm going to leave the hair part alone for a bit. i'm still skeptical on whether or not to try and release this....Lol anymore opinions on that?

Yes! You should absolutely release it. ;) I would use it, mainly because the infant skin that you showed at the top is freakin' scary.

Lmao! You don't think WatermelonField will get angry? I hope not I'd totally be giving her credit lol.

Definitely! And to be honest, most of the time they won't actually care. As long as you don't say it was all you, then they won't bother you. I do it all the time.

XD yay! Lol and it's good to see you back on Cstyles finally lol.

:D And thank you. It's great to be here again.
