The next step is playing with slider bars, make the eyes rounder (anime is about big iris over an exaggerated eyes, so don't make the eyes too large, instead use a bigger iris, or make the custom eye color for that purpose yourself make the iris a little bigger than usual + add more detail to the irises, and some glows since anime is about glowing eyes too). Maybe for that purpose I would choose standard (1st type) face, + elf chin. In my case (of making another 3D games into simmies) I use my own skinset, but in general people would use Louis's for that purpose.Ĭhoose the right genetic feature for each area, don't go straight to the asian type face since anime != asian sim, and beside maxis asian sim is way over exagerrated (ugly) Just put the right skintones before sculpting the face, because skintones would help a lot to set the feeling. However, making a character based on another 3D game or movies is more approachable, since we have a clue how the original character looks from several angles, and then with patience we can clone them into sims. (they are rare)īut mainstream anime characters with their pointy nose and chin, and hyper exaggerated eyes in a 3D world that is not created for them would make them look like aliens. or Inoue Takehiko's stuff Slam Dunk, Vagabond, etc. I think making a"GOOD" anime sims is rather impossible, because anime character is drawn as a 2D character, no matter how hard we try we can not have a "good" anime or manga sim as a 3D characters.Įxcept for some anime or manga with more realistic looking characters like Tsukasa Hojo's mangas City Hunter, etc. Some good examples of sims I've found are here: They're more Dollfie shaped, but that may give you some ideas. As for interesting noses, upturn the nose just slightly or so the bridge of the nose is curved. Experiment with different make-up to emphasize certain aspects of the face, depending on what style you're leaning towards.ĥ.
Don't make the mouth as straight as a line as you can instead, experiment with pale lipsticks, lip glosses, and shaping the mouth.Ĥ. However, be careful of getting box-shaped pupils, where you shape the eyes so much that the pupils loose their roundness.ģ. Sometimes you can get away with certain eye colors when you distort the eyes to where you want, so experiment. Leaning in in favor of Asian facial proportioning helps too.Ģ. Give the sim more child-like proportions, such as a big forehead, rounding the cheeks, etc.
In 'traditional' anime (the quotation marks there to indicate nothing's truly a tradition style XD), the heads are often drawn in proportion to how big the eyes and how small the mouth is. Personally, I've never really seen anime/manga proportions translate all that well to sims unless their designs are more on the realistic side (as many do), or they're already computer generated as in the case of Advent Children.
