I've been trying to make a sim Jaejoong for a while now and this is my third try. I've been trying to perfect this for hours and everything is getting blurry, not to mention that I cannot listen to the create music anymore lol. Any suggestions would be great. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Do you have any custom sliders? That would really help. ~ First thing I noticed, WTH HAPPENED TO HIS NECK? You can adjust it with the Neck Thickness slider if you have it. Or maybe tone down the muscle slider. ~ He looks fat. Adjust the Fatness slider. ~ Eyes need to be rotated that --> way. ~ Lower eye apex needs to be on the this <-- side. ~ Pull his nostril up a smidge. ~ Create a bump on his bridge. To do this, increase the Nose Bridge rotate slider and adjust his Nose Bridge depth accordingly. ~ His jaw looks too soft and round. To make this hard, decrease the Jaw Shape slider. ~ Lips are great. Other than those, I'll leave it to the others. But since it's your third try, I would feel bad to tell you to restart him again lol. ![]() If you don't want to restart just do what was told above and post the new pictures of him after you do this. Also add up some in game pictures. Create a closed room. Fill it with white walls, floors, and good lighting. And when I say good lighting, BOMB THE ROOM WITH LIGHTS.. |

I am not sure if it is because of his beefy neck but I think his whole face or head looks pretty narrow and a bit unrealistic. His lips are nice but I would define his upper lip a bit more. On one of you screenshots it seems like thereīs no partition between the lip and the face. Then I would reduce his chin. Otherwise you have made a good start!

I think what may have happened regarding the beefy neck, is that you have made his head way too small. If you could post a screenshot of him without the big hair, it will be easier to tell if that is what's happened! Also, it's important to post pics taken in-game, not in CAS, as sims look very different in-game than they do in CAS, and it's only what they look like in-game that matters. Pics also need to be bigger and less blurry (it looks like you need to raise your sim and texture detail settings), which will make it easier for readers to help you. |

Thanks for all the help it's really appreciated. I made some adjustments and increased the detail. The neck thing freaked me out and I honestly didn't know what was going on, but I figured out that the muscle feature was slightly too high and it fixed itself. ![]() I have a hard time with the camera so this is the nest picture I could get. Also, here's another pic of him for reference, one without his hair in his eyes, for the most part. ![]() ![]() |

Itīs difficult to say what needs to be improved. It looks as you have taken your screenshot from above while your sim is looking downwards. Well, one thing I would like to say is that his nose tip could be a bit more narrow. And maybe his head and the nose bridge a bit wider? Even if you have chosen this hairstyle just for the photos I would say that it looks much better than before. |

Like it's said above, it's very hard to see what needs to be changed as you've taken the picture from an odd angle. He needs to be looking straight at the camera, it may take a bit of time trying to get the best picture but it'll be worth it so that we can see what needs changing. Ok the, the first things that I've noticed is his eyebrows. They are too long and almost meet in the middle, you need to pick eyebrows that are further apart. I'd rotate his nose up a bit, and then decrease the scale of the nose tip. Decrease the thickness of his bottom and top lip. The eyes almost seem too rotated, swing them back a bit. His top lip needs to be smoother and more rounded. He also needs a darker, more coffee colour skin. Push his eyes a little bit further apart. His face is looking far too long, so is is chin. He needs a bit more of a square face, but not too much. Possibly add a bit more definition to his nose. I can't really see what else needs to be changed without a better picture of him, remember he needs to be looking at the camera. You also need to put the picture of the sim and the real person next to each other, cut the pic down if you need to. |

Good. Your pictures are improving ![]() ~ Add a curve to the eyebrow if you're going to stick with this one and raise the eyebrow's outer corners. I really suggest you to use a different eyebrow, if possible. ~ Eyelid height is too low. Try to raise it up a bit. ~ Eye apex needs to be centered. Lower eye apex needs to go to side more. ~ After you put the lower eye apex to this <-- side, you will notice that his outer corners at this --> side becomes narrower. Rotate his eyes downward a bit. Trust me. ![]() ~ I think the bridge height is too high. Pull it down and the nose needs to be narrow between the eyes. ~ Nose tip scale needs to be increased and if you have the nostril rotate slider from aWT, try to define the holes of his nostrils a bit. If you don't pull his nostril up a tad. ~ Less definition on his nose just a click or two. If you want, decrease his nose definition and just increase the nose length if his nose gets too flat. ~ Mouth, chin, and jaw needs to go up a little. His chin is looking too heavy too. OR maybe if you pull it up it will go to normal? ~ I would say his mouth was perfect when based to the other comparison pics you posted at post #1 but in this picture I would say to decrease the thickness in his upper lip and increase the lower lip shape a little. ~ His cheekbones look too big. From the comparison picture, you can see he has small cheekbones and has fuller cheeks. Cheekbone height needs to go a tiny bit down. ~ Ears need to be rotated more. I can't really tell because I just realized that your picture is a slight 3/4 shot. ~ His chin needs to be a little wider. His face isn't really like \_/ but (__) so the mouth, chin and jaw needs adjusting as said above. ~ He needs smaller irises.Oh and after you have done the apex thingies mentioned above, try to decrease the eye shape a tiny bit. Eye needs to be stretched a tiny bit too. ~ He's looking cross-eyed a little. If you have the Crossed eye slider here @ MTS you can adjust the placement of the irises so it won't look like he's cross-eyed. ~ Jaw needs to be wider as well. He's looking too muscular at the moment so tone down the muscle slider and increase the thickness of his neck a tad. ~ Neck's a little long too. If you have the neck height, bring his neck up a tad. I wouldn't say he's perfect/awesome but I would say he's getting there. |

Redid some things and updated the eyes and the eyebrows. I think I'm really close but something still feels off ![]() |
