It's a hair line? As in, a face mask? That's super easy to convert to children, if so. Let me know and I can offer help and advice in doing so.

That sounds good, only I don't have any meshing tools or software. It would be better if someone else would do it Sorry

face masks just need body shop, an image editing program (paint shop pro, photoshop, gimp, etc...) and just a really good source pic. No meshing involved...

Seriously? Actually, what is wrong with me? I know how to do this. You don't even have to alter it at all in Photoshop. Jeez! Sorry. I'm so stupid! I could make it myself... but would I use the MJ pic I have for the hairline? Or would I have to "hand-paint" it?

Up to you. If you can get it from the pic, go for it! Though, you might get better results just trying to do it by hand.

His face looks really long and flat compared to the photo. It could be because he's smiling really hard, but the Sim you made seems more feminine. Although Jackson might of looked feminine in his last years of life, he actually looked like... a normal boy when he was at the stage you're portraying him in.

I don't know if there is a way to "stretch down" his face, though. I think it would be easier in TS3.

His lips also look too shiny and feminine, but I don't know where you'd find "male lips", haha.

Thanks for the feedback

But what do you mean by long and flat? As in long in length?

Yeah, the face shape looks really long. MJ had a short and round face as a little boy.

Yeah, I'm going to download those afro hairlines so it'll make it look like he has a shorter face.

Ok, no afro mask yet, since computer and bodyshop are running quite slow, but here's a new update:

Can't wait to see the hairline! The nose looks great (but, the shiny part is gray instead of white, like the rest of the skin. That should be fixed), though I'd like to see a comparison.

The lips look like lipstick. That should be more natural. If it's the skintone, then use these HP's Lipsticks, the dark set. These should be perfect. :D

Thank you Simalicious! I tried to make my own with the source pic, but it looked too photoshopped.

The nose mask isn't mine, do you think I could try to change the hue/sat.? I would need permission though.

That looks good! And yea, change the coloring a little bit.

And, r_cob, yea, but I've been really busy in real life, but I haven't abandoned it.

It's going. I'm gonna change the shape a -tiny- bit to make it more like his actual hairstyle. I'm also trying to make it so it only shows in the child age, but that's not coming along very well. I'll give it another try, though.

Wow, you're doing so much, thank you simgirl! I do agree on the hairstyle, Michael's afro was more round than the one you're working on. Could you stretch it down a bit more, since his forehead is looking quite big now? I hope it's not too much to ask

This is going great! On all of the real pix of Michael, his cheekbones are shining a bit lower, and I think you might need to shape the cheekbones a touch more appley...just a touch. Also, his top lip is way too pointed. Smooth it out more. His bottom lip is much wider in reality. It goes almost straight across, where your sim's is rounded.

Hope that helps! He is soooooo cute *screams like a girl*...wait, I am a girl

I planned on bringing it down over his forehead more. And making it more round.

No problem, it's kinda fun actually

Okeydokey, so I recoloured the nosemask, and lowered it a bit, since the nostrils looked too big before. I also picked my three favourite lips from the HP's collection that I'mSimilicious ever so kindly gave the link to. How does he look?





I think the first lips are the best, since he had a bit of pink in his lips, like so...



And also, the nose mask was created by threehundred, in her policy she says these exact words: Do whatever you want, just give credit where it's due
