Upload: Some face templates!
This is a complete set of faces I first made in January 2008. O_O
All my current lj icon pictures are of 3rd generation sims created with these templates. Well, sort of. I recently tweaked the eyes to be a wee bit smaller. As much as I enjoy hoarding my goodies (not really, I'm just, er, pathologically introverted), I figured I would finally share these because I keep coming back to them even three years later. That means there's a chance someone else might like them, even though there are lots of other nicer sets available nowadays. :)
It should be noted that the proportions are shorter than the ones I have up on MTS. I don't know if it's a good idea to mix and match these with those, but then again I never tried. And they probably have the same problem with all-look-sameness as most other template sets.
I'm not 100% satisfied with them (e.g. the jaws are wonky because I was overzealous about trying to fix something weird about how female faces breed in TS2, and I got lazy with the noses... but at least they have noses this time). Also as I've said before I'm not an artist and I couldn't care less about realism in my game. My goal was to create recognizable versions of the Maxis faces that breed reasonably well together without all being clones. I also wanted to preserve the possibility of some mild ape-faceyness and plain janes because... I kinda like it and I miss it when it's gone.
I'm really new at uploading things this way so bear with me if I break something in the process.
I apologize for the horrible preview shots. I'm reeeeally lazy. Click to make them bigger.

NOTES:
--Compressorized, yay.
--Goes in your downloads folder like everything else. Can be placed in subfolders if you want. If you don't want, just delete.
--Download both files from the first post here so face 21 & 25 will function correctly and so the alien archetype will show up in Bodyshop & CAS. Download the file from post 11 if you want the Eelf and Alien templates to be available to new townies and NPCs.
--The Alien template is NOT a Pollination Technician replacement.
--Installing face replacements doesn't affect how your existing sims look. You have to make new sims to see the effects.
--Previews taken with Leh's skintones, which can be found here, and smjoshsims 's edits of Phobia's eyes. Hair by simgaroop .
Special Bonus:
If you want matching Pollination Technician and Ideal Plantsim replacements (just clones of the Alien and Eelf template genes), get them here:
PT
Ideal
Enjoy! Now that these are done I might actually boot up the game to play for a change. When I finally get around to posting pics from my game you'll see more of these faces, for better or worse. :D
