More Awful Than You! February: SKINS

This whole thread made me roll laughing. 

What about this one?


The name of this monstruosity is "Infant with hair and clothes on". TSR, more than 1000 downloads.
The creator´s page.

I wonder what happens with this poor thing when the sim grow.

I'd love for someone to download that baby to see what it looks like as it ages.

I would but I'm to afraid.

I have this sick thought in my head that suggests combining it with an Anatomically Correct body/skin.

*SNERK*

I sincerely hope it's only the actual baby texture that's done up that way.
The problem with clothes on the actual skin is that they stay on when you bathe the babies. 
This takes the concept of inheriting clothes to a new extreme...  Also, where does the diaper go?

Since it's free I'll go have a closer look.
Edit: Luckily, all other ages of the skin are normal barbie textures, of terrible picture quality I might add.  4,5MB to clutter up your downloads folder, and only two textures differ from Maxis'.  And I'm still pretty sure the diaper would end up on the outside of the clothes, unless you use some kind of replacement, and if you're doing that, you could just as well go with one of the good ones.

You'd probably be better off using the Morague skin overlay technique, allowing you to overlay an outfit onto any baby.

I -do- so love these threads... Not only can I laugh my ass off at all the hideous crap... but all the links to stuff on MTS2 are quite helpful in removing a bunch of old awful stuff that nobody in their right mind would download.  Blessedly, 99% of it is quite old, from 2005/2006 so I don't have to feel too bad, but still.  *goes on a happy tagging spree*   

[J. M. Pescado]

Yeah, there's a lot of awful "proof of concept" demos that no longer have any real meaning, that people did just to show that it could be done, not for any actual usability in-game. On the other hand, destroying those would kinda be erasing a piece of history. Some of those that have historical value should probably be rounded up and moved to some kind of memorial shrine section.

Speaking of which, didn't you already released the "belly hair" overlay? Where is the shiny?

[J. M. Pescado]

That object is not really "released" because I didn't bother to customize an applicator for it, I just crudely overwrote the original Morague applicator, and it contains a bunch of gunk I did to it for personal use. The belly hair itself is releaseable, but without an applicator, there's no way to apply it.

[Tchan]

lol Aychie, you are so awesome.

Ooh, belly hair? Fun.

Glad about that baby skintone...ugly outfit, too.

[angelyne]

These are no where near as horrible as some of the contenders here, but I thought this skin was pretty nasty looking.  If you are going to use a real picture for your skin texture, at least use someone with good skin

Yuck! Shiny, greasy AND pimply skins. Who made them?

[starlady]

The lashes on those models look like they came off of a feather boa... and their lips look like they had matte glitter for lunch!

Great to know it's useful for something!

I can't remember.  It was on a small site.  They looked ok from the screen shots.  I'm always on the look out for nice skins so i downloaded them into my game.  ick.  Not good.  They got the boot right after I took a screen shot for this thread. 

[Quinctia]

The worst thing about those skins is that with a decrease in contrast, and a bit of blending/airbrush/painting, you could have some decent skins!  That dark skin is actually a pretty nice shade, which is really hard to find in custom skins.  I like the base tones, and the modeling on the face seems good.  The whole "zoom in to the pores/pimples/chapped lips" thing make them look horrible, though.  :/

[J. M. Pescado]

Judges to the judging booth.

[Tchan]

JUDGE, you mean. And I'm here. I'm going through them again.


zzzz....

I mean, ew.

First Place: Agent40's Meat skins. (I want to see this wearing the meatdress!)


It's just revolting. There is nothing worse than that. It had won from the moment I set eyes on it.

[Katuchan]

Ack that is just too freaking bizarre.  I can understand ear piercings, naval piercing, nose (even though I think its unattractive, but the rest is just weird.  Whatever.  Just ignore me, I'm just an old trout.

Naval piercing?

[Jess Maree]

A naval piercing is a belly button piercing. My sister had it done but it got infected.

[Kyna]

That's a navel piercing.  A naval piercing must be the type of piercing sailors get (a piratey gold hoop earring in just one ear, perhaps?)

[Katuchan]

A naval piercing is a belly button piercing. My sister had it done but it got infected.

Wouldn't that be a navel piercing? Or is it a special version that can only be obtained when part of the actual Navy? I've had one myself, also removed it due to infection. And the fact that, hell, I'm fat. No one wants to see my bellybutton, so why have it pierced?

Edit: Dangit, Kyna beat me to it.

[Jess Maree]

Typo was caused by me being lazy and copy & pasting naval piercing from the post. Obviously, spell check didn't pick it up. So I didn't

[Emma]

You're just pissed off because you didn't win. Try harder next time!
