How do I make a My Sim look just like me?

I'm playing The Sims 3 game and I'd like to make a Sim that looks just like me. However I don't know how to do that. If anyone can help I'd be greatful.

Keep a mirror near the computer and look at it while you're sculpting your face or take pictures of your face from different angles (from the side, from 3/4's view, and front view) and use them as reference.

Also try not to smile or make any sort of expression. It distorts your face structure making it harder to sculpt.

Easy! :D

1.) Take a photograph of yourself with no hair on your face at all (pinned back or whatever) from directly the front of your face, not tilting WITH GOOD LIGHTING. Try not to smile, just have like, a normal facial expression (unless you like to make your sims smile).

Got the picture?

2.) Take another picture the same, but only this time, take a picture of your profile (side of your face). Just so in game you can turn your sim to make sure it looks like you from the side, because sometimes you can make a sim that looks EXACTLY like you from the front, but from the side its like, WTF is that?

Now, head to CAS.

3.) Choose your weight that fits your size first! Weight also affects the look of your sims face.

4.) Make sure you have the photographs downloaded on your computer, I usually take mine with my webcam. Or, if you don't want to use photo's then just keep your webcam opened (if you have one).
But I definitely recommend having photographs for a straight on reference.

5.) Make sure your sim has a hair that is out of its face (like up in a bun or bald) similar to the one in your reference photo.

6.)Begin sculpting your sim through each category to the point where it looks as perfect as you can get it. You may want to check out these mods to get your facial shapes exact: Facial Sliders by Ahmad

7.) Choose the clothing/make-up/hairs/brows you'd like, and browse some websites such as this, TSR, etc. and you should end up with a very nice looking you-sim.

Hope that helps! <3

^ Commissions? I doubt it. Someone might take requests though.
