SCREENSHOTS
Hello. I decided a while ago that I would try to paint one skin tone just for fun and experimentation; well, since I’m a perfectionist, after a few thousand hours of painting, tweaking, and a few Bodyshop crashes, I ended up with a whole set of skins.
I wanted them to be more shadowy and realistic than Maxis’ skins, but I also wanted them to retain a slight cartoon appearance to them as well, so that was my goal. Also, they’re completely “Barbie”, so nothing indecent.
Every skin I’ve presented I painted with Photoshop 7 over the original Maxis skin. I painted a new skin for every age group except elder; however, I did paint an elder face. The skins are also for both genders.
The one entitled “Peach” is the original I painted, and the other tones are level recolors of it.
There are five different skins altogether, and they’re named: Porcelain, Peach, Olive, Chocolate, and Coffee.
I wasn’t going to include Porcelain until later, but I decided I would. I also have another one named French Vanilla that I may submit with a Sim later on, if you guys enjoy these. They’re the first skin tones I’ve every done, so I’m not too confident with how they look, but I do like them.

Miscellaneous Information
Hi, I’m Cole. I’m no expert when it comes to creating custom content, but I’ve been playing the Sims since the first one, and I also know my way around Sims PE, so I’m no novice to the actual Sims world. I started making content because I love seeing how things work; one day when I was in Bodyshop and saw that button, I had to see what it did. My main hobby is art, though, which you can view here: http://www.nikki-marie.deviantart.com.
All the content I submit, I paint with a tablet and either Painter 7, Photoshop 7, or a combination thereof. I have loads of creations, but I’m still tweaking them, so for now, I’ll just submit eye and skin sets. Later, I may submit some Sims, makeup, pets, and houses because the ones I’ve created of those will be easier to adjust with my limited time. Alas, time is not something dedicated college students apparently have. :)
Anyway, if anybody would like to use my custom content in your pictures or for your created Sims, I won’t have a problem as long as you credit me and send me a link. Also, make sure you only submit to free sites. But please don’t recolor anything; that’s what I like to do :).
