Took a few more pictures. I made over the Landgraabs as well (not Johnny Zest yet). I love seeing how everyone styles the sims, and often try to guess what inspiration or what convinced a simmer to choose a certain look for them.
Geoffrey. He's now a Doctor in my game like he was in TS3.
Nancy. Ah, those Kijiko eyelashes really make a difference! So does using a brow pencil! She's a CEO in the Business career now.
Malcolm. He's a YA here. I broadened his shoulders to make him look older, and he's been working out. I also changed his traits to reflect his TS3 self so he's no longer Evil, but Good.
Though I did catch this supposedly "good" Malcolm drinking with a teen for New Year's.
Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night.
So I'm back to playing my legacy again, and decided to help some fashionably challenged townies, before doing anything else.
Dirk Dreamer always bugged me, the way they made him look. And now, after his hair was changed I just don't like his look at all. He's gotten a wardrobe change (didn't even change every category) and a new haircut. I also added his small loop earrings to every outfit. And, I also always thought his eyes were too small, so I changed those too. I think he turned out much better looking.
Remade Nina Caliente as close to Sims 2 as possible!
That is excellent! I love to remake Sims from previous games. I'm doing the Sims 1 Goth House in Brindleton Bay and I'm going to have Cassandra move there.
i rarely save my townie makeovers (i often forget to after making them in a save), but here's one of the few i do have, which is a makeover of l faba. (i tried to keep her spellcaster essence whilst also putting my own spin on things)
CC: lashes, eyebrows and hair
Facial edit: I gave her just a bit more jaw.
And I taped her ears closer to her head.
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Grant Charles is a Magic Realm townie spellcaster my Sim met on a jaunt to Magic HQ in order to fulfill an Aspiration. All I have done is let him grow out his hair, and make some new outfits. He still has a rather girly walk, which Brodie doesn't mind. Outgoing, Erratic... I forget his other traits. Here he is sneaking around the lanai to ambush his sweetie.
Wasn't able to fully touch the BFF household just yet, but I gave Summer Holiday a new look! She reminds me of a preppy college girl, but one that is kinder than the typical "mean girl" archetype, and possibly more ditzy. Maybe comparable to Cher from Clueless lol. Regardless, I wanted to reflect that! I didn't have to touch her actual face at all, I forget how pretty of a Sim she is!
It isn't the best photo, but I think it does her justice!
Aged Olivia Kim-Lewis to a teen. Gave her her mother's eyes to better show mixed heritage:
I don't use Discord because it doesn't support multiple accounts and I don't need folks at work wondering what I'm doing even on my own time. Until Discord catches up with every single other voice / video conferencing system, I limit where I use it:

Carrying on with this, I finished touching the BFF household and even dipped in on the Landgraab's! I don't have Travis Scott or Geoffrey Langraab to show, as I think I'll be retouching the outfits I chose. Nonetheless, here we go! These photos are as well taken from CAS, so apologies if they aren't the best!
We'll start with Liberty Lee. I wanted to keep her geekiness in her outfit, and took inspiration from fads I used to see a lot. She makes me think of the type of girl who hangs out at internet cafes, gaming or hanging out with other friends, Travis included - and maybe Summer tagging along as well just for kicks!
After that, we have Nancy Landgraab! I pondered the idea of giving her a pantsuit like a typical business woman, but I instead went for a "Real Housewives" sort of vibe! She still looks polished though, I think!
Lastly, we have Malcolm Landgraab. I don't know whether I'd like to have him be like previous renditions of Malcolm and be Good, or keep him how he is in this universe and have him stay as an Evil Sim! I wanted him to look preppy, privileged, and all of that. A "Country Club" kid who likely makes fun of even his own peers behind his back.
Moira was a daily walk-by , and I got tired to see her all the time, so, a little makeover
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
I really didn't like her original look, it's so plain and nothing about it screams magic. She's supposed to be a young adult spellcaster not a school teacher!
I love that look, going to have to make her over too!

I did the strangerville plot with a teenaged sim, and one day she came back from high school with Luna Villareal. Ever since that Luna has been constantly around her, and they ended up with maxed out romance dials.
So at the end of Strangerville, I aged my own sim to young adult and got her a paranormal investigator license. Seemed like I should age up the Villareals at the same time to keep things from getting weird.
So here's Luna as a young adult:
I also aged Max to a teen, but left the others alone:
Somehow when I wasn't watching, Katrina Caliente married Jacques Villareal. I guess this means the autonomy proposal mod is working.
I go through my households every day and anytime I find a sim younger than teen I age them up to teen, so I've got stacks of makeovers like this.
After getting a bunch of CC clothes and using Sims4Studio to make almost all of it appear randomly (if it's not of quality for that I usually just delete it) - I've also 'randomized' the outfits and hair of a few of the premades - with an eye to at least keeping the hair in theme.
I don't use Discord because it doesn't support multiple accounts and I don't need folks at work wondering what I'm doing even on my own time. Until Discord catches up with every single other voice / video conferencing system, I limit where I use it:
This time around, I touched on the Goth family! I had to do little to nothing to Alexander, so I didn't picture him here. Onto the rest though!
Firstly, on the left, we have Bella Goth. I wanted to keep the iconic 'Red Dress' look of course, but also give her a sort of 'Morticia Addams' appearance, if that makes sense? Either way, I love it.
After her is Mortimer. I put good use to the Nifty Knitting hair for him to keep his aging yet handsome looks, and had him match his lovely wife with some red.
Last but not least, Cassandra. I wanted her to keep her same 'Goth' look, but more bookish. I didn't want to make her a copy of Wednesday Addams haha, but I feel I did her justice and kept a resemblance there. I just wish TS4 had nail polish or something! I wanted to desperately give her black nails lol.
Cassie, Clara and Dominic (at their hot weather outfits, I just picked something )
My love, my love, my fearless love, I will not say goodbye..
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Been bored with the game again so I improved Paolo Rocca (Get Together)
I found some "alpha" cc skins the other day which I really like so I've been using them on all of my male sims, they give exactly the realistic look I want sims to have!
Edit: Remade Eva Capricciosa from the same household aswell!
I think these sims are supposed to be Spanish? so I tried to show that in their appearance. I tried to keep the same vibe for both of them, Eva still has big hair and a dark lip just a more realistic version of it
I like the way you did Eva and Pablo. Yes they are supposed to be Spanish but you thought enough to keep their eyes and mouth as they were in the original. That's a big thing to me because even though you changed their hair and skin, they still looked like Eva and Pablo as we met them. And not some other sim with their names.

Wanted to keep the effeminate fashion designer vibe he has, but just make it look a bit sleeker
Wow he looks so much better!
Christie Sigworth as YA
CC: lashes, eyebrows and hair

And I taped her ears closer to her head.

Here are Dennis Kim, Vivian Lewis and Eric Lewis.
I have plenty of premade sims in the same shape.

Shouldn't the made-over sim still look like the original sim? To me that's not the Caliente's, but are a new set of people with their names.
I like the way you did Eva and Pablo. Yes they are supposed to be Spanish but you thought enough to keep their eyes and mouth as they were in the original.
