Title: Skin issues
Post by: Jysudo on 2006 April 17, 02:21:48
Anyone know where I can find some free and decent barbie skintones?
Those without nipples and genitals? I really tried but it seems that most pretty skins out there are actually 'realistic' skins.

I want light, med, dark med and oriental skin tones. Thanks thanks if you know ;)

Anything done by Deb on the SapphireSims2 website is anatomically detail-less in the way you're wanting.  My advice on them, though, dl the characters, and use cleaninstaller to only install the skintones.  I've gotten rid of some good tones from there during cleanouts because they look like bodysuits to me without the details.

i wish there were more of these too that look really realistic in shadows n muscle definition. i have kids that play this game, for one thing and it's embarrassing to open up body shop to show someone something and have the "anatomically correct" body parts showcased all over the skintones section  :-\

Did you see these? http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?p=1171731

I just dl'd them myself, but I don't know yet if they are 'correct'.  They seem quite nice - I hope they are suitable.


Update:  I just looked at them in SimPE and they appear to be just what you wanted.  Yes, as Jenwarren mentioned, Helaene's are very nice, too.  I have a lot of her make-up.  Here is her link in case you don't have it: www.helaene.com

Helaene's skin tones are Barbie-like, and her Asian ones are nice. The ones SockMonkey linked to should be fine too, the anatomically correct ones at MTS2 are in the Adult Genetics section and these aren't. Around the Sims has some nice skin tones too, and IIRC they're also Barbie-like.

I believe the best barbie like skins are Revoye's skins on MTS2..not sure on the spelling of her name.

Revoye's are pretty nice, (but shiny...) Enayla's first skin sets were barbie doll too weren't they? Anything you can find at TSR should be as well.

I liked the skins from StarSims  (http://www.starsims.net/homepage.htm) (bottom row of the skin section) and they are barbie doll.
Not sure how the newer skins are...

Too bright?  Have you looked at your signature line lately?  Quick, Lil Brudder, put your hood back on!

Too bright...Jeez!

Enayla at MTS2 has pretty ones, but I don't know about the enhancements. She has a well-done skintone with freckles, too.  She has two natural sets, default replacements and non-default.

Yes, Reavoye's are great, though I think she moved most of hers to TSR.  Her's are also of the shiny/glow type; two sets, one with a less bloated looking belly.  Not as many skintone choices but also very pretty.

I got Reavoye's a long time ago.Hers' are the only ones I use most of the time but its too shiny as you guys said. I also use some sim chic skins but they are a little problematic. Some of my sims are born without a face. Totally spooky.

Heleane is down but I'll check them out if she got her site back :P

They're called colors.  :)  See, the first one is red, the second one is yellow, the third one is blue, and the fourth one is orange.

JUst because you only see shades of gray doesn't mean we all do, sockmonkey.

How about glow, tanned, cashmere and saigon skin colours?

Vanilla Tango's (http://www.vanillatango.net/) ones should be Barbie style, as far as I remember.
Look under Sims - Genetics 2.

OOOOH!  Monkeys can see red I think.  But to be fair to the color family you really should have green and purple in there too.

I made a set of some barbie-fied "safe" skintones with enhanced muscle definition and a more realistic face than the Maxis one... but, they're for males only:

I made my own set with pinker cheeks & lips. They have no nipples, genitals, or fake cleavage. http://bluemooner.com/cblog/index.php?/categories/14-Genetics (http://bluemooner.com/cblog/index.php?/categories/14-Genetics)
