Working on the tutorial. :D Just so that I can give a better detail on the sliders and what they do.
Useful to those who don't know how to use the sliders? I'm gonna go into each one so this is going to be a long tutorial. Siddown and buckle in.
Now many people default to the top one on the left - because it's a heart-shape and well...heart-shaped faces are "ideal" for making "pretty" sims. That's why everybody's sim "looks the same..." :roll-eyes: So experiment a little pick a different head-shape. I'm going to select THIS one. That makes her face a bit puffy and makes it a little bit harder to work with. And frankly. I LOVE A CHALLENGE. My wife says I'm masochistic.

Step Five: Here's where you go into the sliders. This is where most people just don't give a rat's behind. They just don't want to muck around with the sliders and just want to complain when it's just the fact that they don't want to go into the sliders and actually do the work. Here's where the real work comes into play. First you have an over-all set of sliders that govern the head-shape and general facial shape. This is what we're going to play with first and we're going to be going in and out of different facial shape sliders to achieve the final effect.
FACE PROFILE SLIDER: Your Face Profile governs just how pointed out or flat your face profile is. Both extremes. All the way left:https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1vBEgCGJhBc/X2PRE7vgApI/AAAAAAAAjJ0/sCInD2CdWZsPam2R_BdAFMrGzv39sUbkgCLcBGAsYHQ/s0/CASTutorial_FaceProfile1.jpg
Sliders all the way to the right:https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-U_Jxva6xlqw/X2PRS6x-quI/AAAAAAAAjJ4/xSZ9DI3W2IAyiSUAAStbiCZhMpmNdhVFACLcBGAsYHQ/s0/CASTutorial_FaceProfile2.jpg
What we're going to do is put the slider position somewhere closer to the middle and about a third of the way to the right from the middle section; that gives a more pleasing position to the mouth in relationship to the nose and chin.
