WIP: make-up maybe?

[capitaldamages]

I never really dabbled in make-up, quite happy with what I had, but now I have this thing for matte, chapped lips and there just aren't enough around. So I've mocked up a few edits of Jinakiki's chapped lips that I might throw some of Pooklet and Aelia's actions at once I'm happy with them.


This one is barely edited; the top lip has been shifted upward a little, the whole thing's been sharpened a little, and been Volatile'd.


This one's a little more drastic. Made the creases darker and more pronounced around the edges and fiddled with the upper lip, lighting and been Volatile'd too. And swapped the alpha to Ephemera's to make the edges a little softer.


Thoughts or preference, anyone?

-fangirls a little- Thanks for the comment! I feel very awesome now! c:
I have to agree on the black line now that you pointed that out, it makes the lips a little ... flat and unrealistic? As for the dark patch, I'll take a squizzy later and lighten it a fraction or two.

I try to avoid the Black Lip Line of Doom because I usually use mouth overlays with my sims to make the insides of their mouths a realistic reddish color instead of the default pitch black, so having a too-dark line along their lips looks especially weird when they open their mouths. XD Usually, I cheat and blend in the lip overlay section of Ren's full face mask but shhhh, don't tell.

Well in that case, I must definitely work something out for you! And don't worry, your secret is definitely safe with me, I'm absolutely NOT the loudest person on the continent... >_>
