Eyelashes
I'm in the process of programming genetics regarding eyelashes for my sims. I always want new sims reflect their parents' genetics, and I use notes on the side to keep track on this in a quite simple way.
As I do not own the Lovestruck pack, and did not yet patch my game either, I did not test the eyelashes in CAS. I know there are two versions for base game, and 2 more added with the pack.
Basically I think the eyelashes I saw pictured as a bit too bold for sims not heavy on makeup. Superb for younger "look-at-me" women, not so good for older women, the anonymous segment, and not for males. But I might be totally wrong, besides you might need to zoom in very close to get the "too bold" impression?
In my game I will use 3 DNA categories: No eyelashes (like before), moderate eyelashes (might be the upper lid version only), and long eyelashes (both eye lids).
So - I have a few questions for you eyelash-experts:
- Will the least bold version look too much on a "grey" woman who doesn't care about her looks, spends hours reading alone at home, and has totally no intention of flirting with anyone this century?
- Will the bolder version that comes with the Lovestruck pack make your sim look like a model? How will it go with a face that never saw any makeup at all?
- Are there various color versions, such at grey, red, brownish in addition to black? I mean a natural look without mascara added should come in more versions than black.
- Do the heavier version look bad on male sims? Do you actually give your male sims any eyelashes at all?
- Do you use eyelashes for elders, or mostly for YA?
