Most of the time, the ones you can find in the face detail category completely mask the variations of textures created by the different presets. The face presets are the reason why I avoid using custom skins. So click on every face part, the nose, the lips, the eyes, the chin, the cheeks, and don’t forget the forehead. A preset can make dimples appear on the cheeks or on the chin, modify the shape of the eyelids… If you look carefully, you will see that each preset not only change the geometry, but also have an influence on the face texture. But if you only want to shape the general proportions, it’s not a problem.īefore working on anything, click on each face part, and choose wisely the presets you want to use. That’s the reason why it’s almost impossible to perfectly recreate a real person face in game, even if you find plenty of photo, the face won’t have exactly the same shape on every photo. Keep this in mind : depending on the angle or the distance, a face can be distorted on a photography. Using references can help you to achieve that.

Recreate a face, and then keep it like this or use it as a base for your character.

Only reproduce the general proportions, to have a more realistic base.

This advice applies for almost everything, creating sims, building houses, working on poses ! When working on a sims, you can use reference pictures for different things : Sometime, a simple concept is enough, or maybe you only want to focus on the appearance first and then, imagine your character story. This will influence all my creating process.īut you don’t necessarily need all that. Most of the time, before opening my game, I think about the character I want to create, what kind of person it will be, some basic ideas for a personal story. I hope everything will be understandable, as english is not my native language !
