Can I see an example of an artistic impression shot. I still don't understand what you mean by that.

Okay i will change that...i was thinking something similar to like what Eva does by taking a sim and then turning it into something artistic like she did with the Gothic sims and such but that maybe above lots of peoples abilities...so lets just do an in game shot of an activity your sims loves to do...=) Id rather do that so not to be limiting people who can join because they cannot photoshop....

Hmm....I don't think I can enter, I suck at making hawt male sims....

This sounds interestig! I will definitely be looking into this!...Just as soon as I get my laptop -__- Ugh it feels like its taking forever for it to get here. Btw when you say "doing some kind of activity" do you mean it has to be an everyday in-game activity?

Well maybe your male sims likes to fish...or he is a swimmer or like to hike and you show him viewing some majestic view...maybe he likes to picnic...an activity that is his favorite thing to do...it could be cooking for a romantic date...it can be any activity..just an in game picture of him doing this.

And that is the worst BS i have ever heard...have u seen some of the male sims on the exchange now come now yours are 110% better looking...


This is our theme song for the contest...woot...

BS? Who? Me? Why I never... (said in all my southern sweetness voice) :338:Lol!! I haven't but I may browse around there just to see what you are talking about. What a giggle you gave me!!!!!

This is a great idea! BTW, your recent male sims have been super awesome, Dachs.

I suck BUTT at making male sims. In fact, I have pretty much deleted every male sim I have ever poorly attempted except for my boyfriend's sim (which I had to redo about 10 times over the past year of playing until I was somewhat satisfied). I might try this, though.

Cece, you are joking, right? :p Did someone sneak onto your account and post that as a prank? You're known around the community for your gorgeous guys! Silly bean.

meh...they come out okay I suppose... Just wanted some kicks and giggles!!

I'll enter! I have another male sim to do anyway.

Yay and orange agreed to judge now i just have to find two other judges....

and it a guy sim so remember that it a activity a guy would do hehehehhee.whether he gay or straight it something that fit with a guy sim doing thing hehehhe. right. im thinking mmm he like to gamble , clubbing, fishing, boxing , vamping the ladies, walking his dogs, fixing his car on the weekend, reading in big leather armchair with a big drink, or drinking beer somewhere and oggling the lads in the club. ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh just was reading the post and thinking what a guy activity be good for pictures you know. mm selling hotdogs , work related be good . sim3 sure got a lot of stuff going on egads!

dach what about vampire , ghost and suchness. they are male too. oh.

i wonder if people are using the sliders at 3x max. would that make the sim making easier? dach is that so .
lips
chin
forehead
brows
eyes
cheeks
size of head
so many things can be done now in cas

Great idea Dachs !
Besides being short on free time, I DO really suck at making male simmehs, as opposed to CeCe, so I'm afraid I have to pass on this challenge.
I AM gonna follow this thread though !! ;)

I don't use a 3x slider hack. I just use the sliders and Master Controller. Does the 3x slider hack really make a difference? Never used one.

3x sliders let one have more control on the lips it seems. u can make them bigger.

I actually have my sliders set at 5x though I realize this is way more than I need. You can make perfectly great sims without a slider hack at all. This also makes it easier to avoid having "ugly" sims randomly generated/born in game.

Without using at least 3x, I wouldn't have been able to make a lot of my sims, though. My self-sim has some "extreme" features. Extending the slider range has really helped me with lips, like mamx mentioned. I know that I need the added range for some faces on "Lower Lip Thickness" and "Lower Lip Shape."

It also helps quite a bit with the jaw sliders.

With some of the custom sliders I've installed, the range is REALLY small. awT's lip sliders are a good example. The "tip width" has a very tiny default range - I've maxed out this slider A LOT. Granted, these sliders have a small range to avoid distortion - but if you're already working on a sim with larger features, the added range just adds to detail rather than "exaggeration."

When you install a slider range hack, you also have to get used to how it will feel moving the sliders around - the sliders will be a lot more "sensitive" and your hand will have to get used to making small vs. large changes.

If anything, I would just use a 2x range multiplier hack at first if you want to try it out. You can activate this slider hack with the master controller by just adding the "CAS Integration" module.

I use 3 x slider the higher sizes give u less control as to what the end result will be...i don't care for it being so extreme...i use to use 2 x when i first started with slider hacks...i found for a beginner that this gave me the most control over not being to extreme...Anyway i think for someone just starting that the 2 x or 3 x mod is perfectly fine...I do not foresee me ever going higher then that. I went to 3 x to give my male sims fuller lips...on 2 x the lips for males just do not move much and look almost to having no lips at all...
This is the link....
S-Club Slider hack mod...

I use 3x as well and I don't know what I'd do without it!! I totally love the little bits and pieces it adds to the overall facial features of a sim!! I will Judge also if you need another one. I think, in all fairness...maybe I shouldn't enter this challenge. Not saying I'm all that, but I don't want to enter if people think I make these awesome male sims. I'm just being fair. Let's get this party started now peeps!! I'm going to post this on the Cstyles facebook page!!

I will judge too since i cannot enter my own contest and really to be fair like u said Cece it's not fair to enter if folks think my male sims are all that...There will be a rating system so that way each contestant is judged fairly...

A points system...

1-10 points for Originality
1-5 points for Following directions
1-10 points for looks
1-5 points for photo quality
a Total of 30 points can be awarded total....this scoring system makes it impossible to favor one contestant over another...
Prize is 1000 Sims points to the winner and the runner up will get a choice of Three items from the store sent to their account...

I'd enter, but I highly doubt you guys would think my guys are sexy. :p

Cece is the judge??
Owww noooooo
I want to see her superhipermegahawtest guys here
lol
Just kidding (Actually I'm not kidding )

Please people...we are not living in a caveman era....what one person thinks as sexy another may not...go ahead and enter...you never know.

I will give it a try i have 1 male who looks a bit like a male so i am in and it sound also fun to do ;)

Ok now that I've got my stuff practically up and running, I have some questions When will this start? Will we post the entries here? How many entries can have? Lol...sorry I just work better with deadlines.

Hi Hi lol very good questions by the way

I'll think about it...my game's being a butt head right now...

It starts now and is a one round contest and runs till July 22nd to allow you time to enter...you can enter as many sims as you want but you have to before the deadline pick one male sim that you wish to be judged...only one male sim per person will be allowed to be judged...that doesnt mean you cannot show us your others...just you must pick which one you feel is up for the running.

@Juz...Oh my gosh girl you have me over here laughing my buns off!! On a side note, what better way to learn how to make a male sim or make a male sim look, well...like a masculine male? I'd love to see some new work and love even more if I gave some advice that actually made a difference in the way someone views creating. So come on...get off your buns and let's start creating!!!

Is the challenge still open?

The contest runs through July 22nd, so it looks like both of you still have time to enter your guys.

I think only 2 who submit is not enough so better wait until there are more simmers who write they are on, so who elst is there ?

SelluSu I'd go ahead and post if I were you so others can see that there are contestants. Somehow this thread got buried. Dach or someone, maybe make a banner that I can put on the home page and on Cstyles facebook might help generate some publicity. ;)

Aw crap, I have 3 days left. Time sure does fly by.
