Facial genetic strangeness
mildlydisguised:
I would put it down to sadorandomness then, if you were eventually able to get a blended face. Albeit particularly stubborn and irritating sadorandomness.

Except that Vex is blonde and Howie and Abel are black-haired. That face is 100% Brad the Hippie. Mom Tess has genes from the default PolliTech, Malcolm Landgraab IV, and Remington London the Pizza Guy, and I wanted a kid with some of those. Happily, that happened with youngest spawnlet Stevie:

Brad the Hippie's crazy baggy eyes, and Tess's Landgraab nose and Pizza Guy mouth and jaw. He also inherited her ten nice points, so I love him already.
Brad the Hippie is an Ottomas. They are Uglacy GOLD.
You are truly excelling at your Uglacy.
I'd turn the limits off, especially for an Uglacy. Go into your userstartup.cheat and add a line "faceBlendLimits off" without quotes. That way, you'll get a true blend between your subjects without the game deciding to blend in Secret CAS Template #X. Since my 'hoods are built from three or four sets of templates, I hate it when my variety is culled in the slightest.
As Mildlydisguised said, it's probably annoying sadorandomness. I was adding new families from my townies today, and the first family correctly spawned the boy and girl children I needed to set them up on the first try. The second family took fourteen births to finally get two girls.
DrNerd:
I haven't noticed any random face templates ending up in the mix, although several of the spouses had stock templates (Sandy Bruty-face, Carmen Patch-face, Remington London-face). It's been pretty clear-cut as to which feature has come from which parent.
For instance, Tess:
Eyes from the PolliTech, nose from Granddaddy Landgraab, lower face from Xander/Coco/Cory/Rosemarie (who had the Remington London-face to start with).
And Archie, the Oddly Hot Little Bastard: Daddy Landgraab's brows, and a whole lotta Pizza Guy face, with a soupcon of Loki Beaker.
mildlydisguised:
Archie was the best ever. He should have a spin off.

His current spin-off is "Marco! You don't need to be doing things outside after dark! Muahahahahahahahahaaaaa!" *scare* *scare* *scare* *scare* "Had enough, eh? See you tomorrow!"
And I cannot be mad at him, not gonna lie.
