When I saw these skintones by astiees, I fell in love with them and wanted them for my alien sims. Unfortunately, there were no defaults made out of them, so I took it upon myself to do the dirty work, and viola! My very first upload.
Please note the eyes on the blue and silver aliens: they are not original Maxis alien eyes. Apparently this happens only to teenagers. I tweaked the astiees' eyes to look close to Maxis' alien eyes using silo pixel and bean's alien eyes. Unfortunately, default replacement eyes will not fix this glitch.

As with all default replacement skintones, you can only have ONE at a time, so pick your favorite (I still cannot decide!). This means you should get rid of any custom default alien skin you may have, and only upoad one of these. The files are pretty big, but well worth it.
**UPDATE 3/16/09: The files are now about 1/3 smaller in size than they were previously. Also, teen alien sims will now show up with Nanduaka's alien eyes. You can find defaults for those eyes here and the original ones with contacts here .**
