Enayla Natural edits SET THREE!! & a set of Chakaru Blends!

[needlecream]

This is the final set of natural enayla edits. I think I've done  36 blends, including supernaturals and I still haven't done EVERY enayla skin (there were actually two that I tried to blend that were impossible!) and if there are any skins I haven't done that you would like me to do, just ask me in a comment (I reply to all of my comments) and I'll be sure to do it for you. :D

I'm also uploading a set of four Chakaru blends.

credits for everything: Enayla, Chakaru, Pooklet, Jirka, Mouseyblue, Ephemera, Azaya, Joedy

Now for the rest of the set, I actually have actual in-game pictures!
(sims are not wearing any make-up, except for one of them, who is wearing freckles and some facial hair)

(Edit 11/12/2017: modified this post along with other skin posts to add what previews I had after imageshack dropped them.)

And that's all the goodies I've been working on since my last upload! Remember: don't steal credit,  paying for CC is lame, and I LOVE seeing pictures of my creations in your game!
Have fun with these, I feel sort of silly putting them up after Pooklet put up hers.
Mine are just.. nothing compared to her skills.. *admiration*

Feel free to ask any questions or make any comments!
Thank you for stopping by my lj,
and keep checking back for more uploads!

Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow! I have been checking your LJ daily for any blends updates and now all I can do is squee. Just totally gorgeous, I've been using all your Enayla blends with a vengeance in my game and shall now squee further while I mash the download button ^^

Really? :'D
Thank you so much for the nice comment, I'm really glad you enjoy using my skins! It makes it all worthwile. I promise I'll be making more skins and things, so keep checking back!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you! I hope you enjoy playing with them!

[biffysims.livejournal.com]

Just popping over here from the GoS Creations thread. I'm drooling massively over your Pixie Crush blend! And the Chakuru skins are beautiful too.

I'll definitely have a couple of these shoved into my massive Genetics folder when I re-install.

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

thank you so much! It makes me proud to know you'll be playing with them!
& good luck with the re-install!

[clarejosephine.livejournal.com]

Love these, thank you! <3 Where is the adorable bikini from in the first chakaru preview picture?

[clarejosephine.livejournal.com]

Oh OH OHH I also wouldn't mind a blend of the Ghostly skintone from the pale set. :3 (I used to have one I made myself, but deleted it) If you decide to make it, I'd prefer a bit bigger nostrils similar to Mouseyblue's maybe.

[bombardingsheep.livejournal.com]

My skins folder hates you forever.
Do you have non-geneticized/townified versions of these? I share the game with some picky siblings and they prefer the Maxis gene pool to be untainted by these "uber shiny" skins.

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

I can make them for you, I don't mind. I think I'll start uploading the two versions from now on, but I'll certainly make the custom versions of these, and send you a message when I do!

[poettchen.livejournal.com]

these are so gorgeous :)
I was desperately waiting for pixie june and now... thank you so much!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

thank you! Pixie June is a really nice skin, I almost didn't want to touch it! I'm glad you like mine. :D

[wert700.livejournal.com]

there realy great!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

thank you!

[simsfromspace.livejournal.com]

SQUEE.
These blends are absolutely gorgeous! I love what you've done with the lips especially.

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you like the lips, they're the hardest part of blending for me, so that means a lot!

*fangirl scream*

[freezetomorrow.livejournal.com]

I've composed myself enough to download and comment more eloquently now. XD I think these blends are the most beautiful I've ever seen, and I'm not exaggerating! A lot of people keep away from Enayla skins because of her policy/they are too difficult to blend/ect., and admirably you haven't. :) You've blended beautiful, but dated, skins so people can *actually* use them without piling on a metric tonne of make-up. Pooklet's skins are good, yes, but so are yours! Give yourself some well-earned credit. :D

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

:'D
thank you, so much. You always have the nicest things to say, I really appreciate it, and please please enjoy!
(& I'll send you the model too, if you'd like!)

[freezetomorrow.livejournal.com]

Oh and the Chakaru blends are to die for. <3 The sim modelling 'Dawn' looks so expressive and lush.

[electricporn.livejournal.com]

Oh my fuck.
I love you. Hard.
Marry me. Now.

These are ridiculously gorgeous.

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

xD
Thank you! Have fun with them! ;D

These are awesome ^^
Thank you sooo much =)

I admire you, because I have no idea how to blend skintones so ^^

Thanks again ^^

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

I'm sure if you could, your blends would be beautiful!
thank you so much for commenting!

Jeebus, what have you done to these skins? They're pure gorgeousness, and I thought Enayla did good skins, but now seeing your edits, I'm totally grabbing yours and throwing out Enayla's originals, they're a bit gross.Yours are much, immensely better.And your "Pale Blush" model is a hottie.<3 I can has him?

Thanks a lot! :D

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Of course you can has him! I'll upload him straight away! I think I may have used someone else's sim as a base, but I changed him around so much I really don't think I could figure out who's, so I'll upload him.

And thank you very much! I'm so happy you like the skins!

[nymphynymms.livejournal.com]

Thank you Needle :D

These are really beautiful skins! I found you while lurking around on GoS and am very interested in downloading your skins. Would you mind answering some questions for me? I am still very new to Sims 2 and custom content and so far have only messed with skins as far as downloading a default. I am not sure I understand how these differ from the default skins? Will I be able to keep that set in my game if I download these? And how will the skins be chosen in game if these are added?

Thanks!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

You don't have to change your default skins at all, these are completely seperate from those, don't worry. :D
If you have "geneticized" skins in your game, that means that when your sims have a baby, the baby will roll up a skin that comes between whatever skin the babies parents have. Example: A Pale mother has a child with a Dark-skinned father so the baby will have a skin between the two. "townified" means that if you make a new neighborhood with all new sims, the townies and NPCs will generate with your townified skins, instead of just your default skins.

If you're still confused, let me know! I can probably find a link that can explaing things better than I can.

[wonkycrayons.livejournal.com]

These are all lovely!! I downloaded every one of them and can't wait to see them on my sims. The lips are your skins are so soft and pretty :)

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

:D
Thank you so much! I'd love to see pictures, if you take any!
And I'm glad you like the lips! ;D

[imawsume.livejournal.com]

You. Are. AMAZING! I forgot to tell you that on your other posts with Enayla's blends. I have been waiting a veeery longtime for someone to make a kickass reblend of these, thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou! :DD

<3!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! Thank you for the nice comment! :D

[(Anonymous)]

S-weeeeet! This is just amazing to come home to after being gone for a week!
NC, you have risen to the top of skinblenders in such a short period of time, and you're just amazing!

Thank you so so so much!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Aw gee. *blush*
I'm just glad you like them! You were the first one to ask me to undertake this project, and I'm so happy you like the end result!

Thanks

Wow your work is amazing. I downloaded your pixie chocolate edit. My God, how did you get it without any pixelation, that too for such a dark skintone. I made it my default S4. You beat all the others in the race for high quality skintone. Of course one of Buffybot's skintone in a sim named Raf Tibbet? @ treehousesims was of good quality too. I normally do not post, but that piece of work is very very unique. I came to thank you for those.

Re: Thanks

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for the high praise! I really hope you have a lot of fun with these skins, and I know Pixie Chocolate was one of my favorites, I can't believe you liked it enough to make it your default! :D
Thank you for commenting!

Wow those are much needed updates to Enayla skins. They are fabulous! Her work was always so amazing. I wonder if it would be possible to update these skins: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=128208

I know they're old but I used to love them so much! I always loved the tones and the fact that they don't have any extra details like freckles or beauty marks. They make perfect defaults but they're way too shiny and powdery.

If you're too busy or if it isn't possible, it's okay! It would be a nice challenge though! Thanks for reading!

Re: Request...

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Of course, I'd love to do them. I've just started my college classes, though, so it might be a little while before I have enough time to finish them. I promise, it will be done!

Thank you for the comment!

[curiousb.livejournal.com]

These and the other two sets are terrific! I have always admired Enayla's skintones, and really wanted to like them, but they never seemed to look quite right on my Sims. But these blends look ideal - thank you!

[needlecream.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I'm so glad you'll be using them, have fun!
