So, I made this blend around the time when Pooklet released those juicy lips.
And this nose is actually a tifa nosemask, and pooklet also used it on her "down boy" skin blends.
So, because both of these features have already been used, I feel a little silly releasing my own set,
Since pooklet's is of course far better.

I re-installed my simPE, so these skins are pretty smooth, even the darkest tone.

but here is my blend, the set is called "lemon tree" after one of my favorite songs
and all of the blends are named after vegetables.

(Edit 11/10/2017: modified this post along with other skin posts to add what previews I had after imageshack dropped them.
Also note that for most of my older skins I didn't know how to make darker skins properly and the skin shading looks flat and off.)

It's odd how I always check my email a few minutes before you post :D Beautiful work, I love your skins!

Ah, the noses on these skins are superb! I'm so picky about the noses... they make or break a sim, in my opinion.

And thanks very much for the custom version :D

I'm glad you like them! They should work pretty fine with nosemasks, too, if you want to shake things up.
I think the nose is one of the most defining features of a sim, too.

And you're welcome!

BWAHHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! Oh god the corresponding vegetable censors ♥

Gorgeous work, I LOVE seeing your skins!

That was my favorite part. The hardest one was Zucchini, because it seemed like no matter how I put it it looked less like a censor and more like a vulgar reference. xD

Thank you so much for commenting! I hope you have a lot of fun with these!

These look lovely, and I love that song! Nice vegetable censors, too. I think they add a certain something to the preview pictures.

I was cracking up doing the censors, I think Pumpkin came out the best. xD
Thank you for the comment!

Pretty! I especially like squash, that's a beautiful shade. And A+ censors :D and if you made defaults, I would totally download, btw.

I'm so glad you like it! I originally only made potato, pumpkin, squash, and eggplant and I thought maybe squash was too red, so I made Zucchini.

I love it! The one little thing that irked me with Pooklet's DB skins is that they are a teeny bit shiny, so these = 100% dream come true. I love how the shine isn't too apparent on the nose bulb.

ANYWAY THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Really? Oh boy, you really like them!?!?
I know I always prefer less shiny skins in my game, too.

These are lovely. I especially like the dark tones. I know it's difficult to get them smooth, so I really appreciate you having taken the time to do such a nice job.

...Also, the veggie references made me happy for reasons I can't quite put my finger on.

What a nice set of skins! The tones look really nice and I really like pumpkin as well. What tone you think you will use for defaults? I personally think potato, pumpkin, squash and eggplant would be nice.

Date: November 2nd, 2009 12:11 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] needlecream.livejournal.com
Exactly what I was thinking! I originally just made those four, and I added the other two in case potato and Squash were a little too saturated. I'll make those defaults soon, I promise!

The shiny noses are too cute NC! I love them all, but zucchini, squash and eggplant the most! I just love darker skintones.
And in general I'm just really happy to see an update from you!
I've been checking your LJ regularly. As in multiple times a day. But I'm not stalking you. Oh no. Not at all. ;p

I'm so glad, I really tried to get the dark tones the perfect shade, not too yellow or orange or green, I hope. ;D

*offers stalker cookies* even though you're of course not a stalker. ;D

Massive points for the veggie censors too!

I'm really, really, really picky about skintones. Most of the time I only have 1 set in my game. So these will be my new and only set in the game! I love everything you create.

Thank you so much for making my sims look pretty! :P

OMGYES! These are beautiful, and they're not shiny (which is a small pet peeve of mine). Your squash model is so cute, too, and his picture made me laugh - he's like "I don't understand how this vegetable got here...?" Thank you for the yummy skins! ^_^

Thank you so much! I'm so happy everyone seems to like pumpkin, I was afraid it was too peachy and not rosy enough.
