Take the lips were HP are more natural and the skin is also with imperfections.


Egad!  I don't need more imperfections.  The skin on my Sims already looks splotchy up close. 

I need a smoother skin texture with better shadowing to give more definition to the Sim.

How about in-game comparison shots?  Most people post CAS shots, but as we all know, the sim hardly ever looks like that.

There are pictures in the "Share Pix" thread that are ingame (there is an example of weird lighting issues as well as a picture of a woman in a tub that just perfectly demonstrates everything I find wrong with her skins).

That's with HP's skins installed, although children get the unmodified EA skins.  They're all just awful.  It's a graphics lighting issue, and I'm not sure any new default skin can fix that.  (Where is Gunmod when we need him most!)

I'm anxious to get new tools so I can make my own default skins with heavier contour shading.

This lighting problem really is a huge bummer.  I know it prevents me from experiencing the relaxed sense of immersion I felt with Sims 1 and Sims 2 because these Sims are just so ghastly looking.  There is no point in zooming in for a close-up of their expression, because all you can see is a blobby zombie face jiggling like room-temperature flan.  And, by the way, notice how HARD IT IS to zoom in?  That's a different issue.  It's difficult to get the camera just right to get an actual good look at anything.  Which may be a blessing, I guess.

This mod makes the free camera much more manageable: http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=12179.msg344565#msg344565
