Please don't use for anything. Not that I think you would, it's just it's a gift for the trick or treaters on LG. So, I thought you might be curious as to what's been keeping me from my bachelor's challenge. I was just playing around in photoshop trying to think of something to make for a trick or treat gift. I'm not very in practice this is only my second CG since I got CS2. But I'm moderately pleased. Hair ended up overly saturated, Eyes are mismatched in size and the skin texture could have been better. So just moderately pleased. ~Steph

I've always loved the way you do hair - and I think the whole thing is very good. I'd be more than moderately pleased if I'd done it.
I really like the mouth and nose, and you do realise that eyes are supposed to be uneven. It's only in the sims that faces are symmetrical - Real Life not so much.

It looks amazing, Steph! I think the texture of the skin is beautiful. It's just shaded so perfectly, especially around the nose.

I think he looks amazing! And you really shouldn't be so hard on yourself Steph. If you really need it we can hit you in the head - you don't have to do it yourself. Pink

Thanks, guys. I don't CG much, I've done less than ten of them total, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. Very good point, Kiri. I know faces aren't symmetrical, but I still kind of end up thinking that my CGs are lopsided, although I did see an interesting technique today about how to fix it. (Flip the picture and use the liquify filter) Yep, Nathaliée I got CS2 um, back in July maybe? Few months back, I really love it. Pink, I don't have the first clue how to not be hard on myself. So, no you don't need to pound on my head. I do that enough to myself. ~Steph

Just keep trying. Eventually you'll start to get the hang of it. In 10 years or so. Actually it is possible to be less hard on yourself if you keep trying. I know that from expierence. Pink

Thanks, Felicity, Nina, Maddie, and Jenni!
Been working on some others, one's almost finished and I have another to post up. (I've felt just a little lazy.)
Nothing with a little shorter term results, Pink? My mom and Kellie think I should try giving up on beating myself up for a holiday or something. ~Steph

Well the results doesn't come all of a sudden. They slowly build up and it doesn't take that long to be a little better. You mustn't forget to pat yourself on the back for every small victory - however small it is. Also some days are better and some are worse wich I'm sure you know. A friend of mine who had a lot of problems caused by a REALLY bad childhood actually managed to put her problems and her anxiety away for a 4 week summer vacation by promising herself she would seriously look at it afterwards. It only worked one time though and not the next year when she tried the same. Pink
