Okay, long story short. I nuked my game and deleted all custom content and therefore neighborhoods. SO, my story neighborhood and my legacy neighborhood are gone. I will most likely start my story neighborhood over at some point.
This post is mainly for Vero, so I can show her my PTs that I made without sending her 23 links to photobucket. Also it allows me to explain things.
Also, I did not cut or edit most of these, just resized. Sorry.
And to explain, this is my second, butprobably not my last set.
Okay so here we go. I will show you the PTs first

This is PT Apricot. She is the one that I am having the most problems with. I really like that she looks differently and makes okay looking babies. But not sure how I feel about the skin. I want a peachy, orangey skin, but something that is light and kinda airy. This is not, but its the closest to what I could find to what I want.
Anyway, she is a badass, who does not take crap from anyone. She is the leader of her planet and really likes fruit.

This is PT Aquarius. I love his eyes, and though you cannot see it, he has elf ears. BUT for some reason his elf years do not want to show up (I had a few testing babies by him and they do not want to show up...not sure if thats just game genetics or what)
He's a space pirate. Yarrrrr. And I really really like how he turned out. And his kids are pretty and grandchild turn out pretty gosh darn cute.

These next two are my favs. She makes GORGEOUS children. I love her skin - Hence the name PT Amadala. She is some Alien Princess who got caught up in her father's interest in taking over the galaxy.

This is PT Azure. He turned out so much prettier than I thought, and I love this skin. I was going for a very 'pretty look' with these aliens and he's just a pretty boy. He has no fun backstory.
Okay so now onto the babies and grandbabies of these guys.

This is Riley, who all the next alien children were made with. He is a cutie, and in this picture he just found out he was pregnant.
and just as a side note, I grew all the first generation alien babies up and forgot to take pics of their childhood and such. Though most of them turned out really nice that I did not feel like it mattered that much.

Okay this is PT Apricot's bbs. They, for the most part turned out odd, but pretty. I kinda wanted at least one that looked more alien than human - and so far this works. But that skin. URG. I am having skin problems with them. The girl in the middle got Apricot's elf ears.

These are PT Aquarius' babies and NOT ONE got elf ears!And they turned out SO much better than I thought they would. The girl on the right turned out really really pretty. Though now that I look at them closely, they all got small lips and I am not sure if that's from Alien Dad or Human Dad, OH WELLZ.

I wish I would have went up closer on these guys. I made no changes from the first draft of these guys to the second try. AND they make pretty babies. Plus I love the red hair with this green skin.

And this is PT Azure's kids. There are four, because he stupidly had all boys when I first had him have alien babies, so I needed girls. And they both turned out so cute, that both needed to be in the pictures. Geez. the boys are such pretty boys. But I heart this PT.

This is a close up of PT Azure's skin. Isn't it pretty. I like that it has slight alien detailing,but not crazy ones like some you can find.
OKAY so then I picked four of Riley's Alien babies that had most of the traits of the their Alien parent and crossed them with one girl.

Here is PT Amadala's progeny that I chose. She is going to have babies with this girl ------>

Here name is Annie. She is skinton one, and has red hair.

And here are their babies. The adult got the alien skintone and the mom's regular eyes. The teen got all alien. the child got all human, and the toddler is a mix of alien skintone and regular human eyes .

And this is picture of the detailing around the eyes. I forgot to take a pic of this on the first borns.
OKAY on to the next pair:

Here is PT Aquarius' spawn. I will be crossing him with this lovely lady:

Not a great picture of her. This is Becca (yeah I only named the girls and Riley. Everyone Else got names like Aquarius A, or something like that so I could keep track of them). She has skintone 2 and blond hair.

And here are their child. The adult and the teen got all the mom's genetics. The child got all alien genetics. And the toddler got regular skintone and....

The cool alien EYES! I shoud have grown her up to see what it looked like. But on the toddler I thought that it looked cute.
Okay third pair:

Here is PT Azure's spawn. And the daddy of pretty children.

And here is Cammie, a sim who is a bit too beautiful. (I think I make my sims a little too pretty...but that is how I like them *sigh* I need to grow as a sim creator)

There children are a great mix of Grandparent and Parent Genes. The Adult got mom's brown eyes, but alien skintone. The Teen got a mix of Grandpa and Mom's skintone and mom's eyes. Child got all mom's genetics, and I believe the toddler got all alien genetics.

So, not sure if you noticed, but on PT Azure, I made the eyes a bit wonky. This picture was supposed to show that (all the kid's got these slightly oddly tilted eyes). Not sure how I feel about this. This picture was supposed to show that, but I do not think that it does it well.

WAIT, this was supposed to be the picture. What do you think?
And the final pair of sims. They turned out....interesting...

This is PT Apricot's child I chose. She had the pointy ears.

Here is her mate Dannie, who has skinton 4 and a really cute outfit

And here are their kids. I think one or two got the elf ears. Not sure. Also not sure what I think about them. They all got the purple alien eyes that are pretty.

And here is a close-up of the daughter that took most like her Alien mom. What do you think?
So that is all. There are a few bugs I have to fix. A BIG, in fact HUGE problem, is that none of these use a default alien skin. All are custom. Which could be a problem, because then if I want to mix things up I need to make a whole new sim, instead of just changing a default. Maybe I can figure out how to default-inize one. Probably the Amadala skintone.
Another problem, is small, and that is, The plain black eye is my default alien eye, but I believe I somehow got a copy of the nondefault - custom eye and I used that on at least one of the aliens. I would like to be able to switch that out too. *sigh*. Also it ocassionaly does not show up on fist generation PT Azure alien babies. I had to kill the first of Riley's babies by him because she did not have the alien eyes. (I just spawned all these babies for testing and pics, so I did not feel too bad about killing her.) I think I he is the one I used the alien custom eyes, instead of the defaults.
So that is what I have been working on. I am a little disappointed inthe quality and range of alien/fanatsy skintones I could find. I checked all over. And then Insim went down, otherwise I would have downloaded a few more from these I suppose. Oh well. Let me know what you think, Vero.
