Looking For: Default Skin Replacements

[Majick]

I'm looking for a really nice set of Default Skins to replace the Maxis ones.

BUT ... I have very specific likes/dislikes.  And that's where you come in.

I can't find anything I like, but then I've only been to MTS2.com so far (I don't know any other sites).  As I said, I am looking for a new set of Default Skins for my game.  BUT here is the problem ...

The skins I find are WAY TOO glossy, or make the Sims look like muscle builders (yuck!).  I don't mind a few accents in the skin, but the ones I've found are TOO accented.

I just want a more realistic looking skin for my Sims, without them looking ridiculous.

By Glossy, I mean like this:

See how the skin has a "glow" to it?  The face and arms look like a Christmas tree (all lit up looking), and the muscles are way too defined for my tastes.  This is the sort of Skin I don't want.


Think you can help?

*Go to lyran.net
*Press 'Genetics'
*Click skintones

Those first ones are awesome... I use 'em myself.

Hmmm ... They don't look too glossy, and actually seem pretty close the originals, but with a bit more ... realistic look.  I'll try em and see if I like em

[ZePrincess]

OK.
I really like them myself, they're beautiful IMO

I've downloaded them, but I have some stuff to do before I can play today/tonight.  So I'll let you know as soon as I get the chance ^_^

Hey, I don't know if you've found your default skins yet but I was looking for hair for my sims and found these skintones lol. I don't know if you looked at them yet, but they look pretty nice:

If I didn't mind a lot of CC, I'd probably download them myself lol

I'll take a look.  The page won't load right now for some reason.

I have a set of default skins downloaded right now, and so far they're okay.  But I'm still keeping my eyes open

[Majick]

So, I downloaded the Default Skins from Lyran.net ... but they don't show up as Defaults, they just show up as extra CC, like everything else.

Not sure if this is right ...
