nonstopsims Original Poster Test Subject Join Date: Apr 2012 Posts: 25 Thanks: 160 in 1 Posts 5 Achievements	Hey guys, this is a new series I came up with! Since I absolutely LOVE old Hollywood, I decided to create the love interests from my favorite Turner Classic Movies. Next in line will probably be Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable from Gone With the Wind. I've done Audrey so far.

The only thing 'off' is the eyebrows, which are hard to re-create, but there was an earlier version of Audrey here a couple of years ago where another member made custom eyebrows for her - that member (Mermaid Bellamy) has not logged in to MTS for over two years, but hopefully it would be considered OK for you to re-use those eyebrows and give credit to Mermaid Bellamy? The sim in question is here: http://www.modthesims.info/d/375835 . The eyebrows were included in the zip file with the sim. Fantastic work! Am also really looking forward to Fred - I too love Old Hollywood and would be pleased to see more sims from that era!

I don't know if it's stealing since they were intended for another Audrey sim, but that was more than 3 years ago... Does anyone know where I can find a dress and a small bow like this ?

If you can use those eyebrows I think she looks about perfect. Maybe make her chin a bit more pointy and her eyes a tiny bit closer.

In those days, when I made her, the sliders we had were so limited, and it was hard to get her look. Just a few little tweaks. I would bring her irises over so that they are more centred. Sllightly less whites showing above the lower eyelid (remember she is looking up). She has a very distinctive nose, with very wide nostrils, so you need to move those out quite a bit. Great job.

With the eyebrows, she looks just about perfect! A few minor tweaks as mentioned above, and that should be that. She really looks gorgeous!

Heh, actually they aren't the same eyebrows! Your sim's eyebrows were made by Jasumi, while the eyebrows I linked to were made by Mermaid Bellamy. I remembered that SOMEONE had made eyebrows for SOMEONE's version of Hepburn ages ago, but couldn't remember who, so I did a search for 'Audrey Hepburn' in the Sims section, and only Snow White's version came up - I thought I remembered you'd made her too, but thought I'd remembered wrong because she didn't turn up in my search. Maybe it's because (as I've now found out by looking at your profile page) your sim is uploaded as just 'Audrey' rather than her full name. But I guess either set of eyebrows would do the trick, they're both good!

I wish there were some good colored photographs of him since it's hard to see what needs work with all those shadows: Thank you Volvenom, the first dress is perfect! For the eyebrow issue, since the original creator hasn't logged on in such a long time, I'll try contacting SnowWhiteCharming and ask her permission. Does anyone know if there's such a thing as a camera that hangs around the neck in the sims3 like this?

Perhaps the eyes should be further apart, since Fred's eyes seem to be quite wide set. There are some good pictures here, some hard to find ones too, so maybe that can help
