Box Set

I had way too much fun making these. They represent my take on recolouring a previously-unreleased set of eyes by Jessi, as requested on Le GoS by Lilyth, along with a slight edit of the pupil to shift it down and make it a little more forward looking.

Without further ado, have some pictures, courtesy of the lovely Nabila:

DOWNLOAD GENETICIZED+TOWNIEFIED

{choose just one of each colour}


I had a very hard time just sticking to 40 colours, and I love recolouring eyes, so I could very easily be persuaded to make more, if there were any interest. ;)


CREDITS:

Jessi for the original iris texture and catchlights (both of which may possibly have been originally derived from Ephemera)
Pooklet for the sclera texture
Prosthetics and Librarian, for kindly sharing their base texture PSD files with me
Nabila, for taking the beautiful preview pictures for me - the lovely models are all hers

I was watching that request thread and all the colours made were great, but I prefer your version since the eyes are looking forward rather than slightly upwards. The colours that you used are gorgeous! Thank you for these eyes!!!!

[curiousb]

I too love the colours that Prosthetics and Trapping made, but one of my big 'things' is that I like eyes to definitely be looking forwards rather than upwards, so I couldn't resist making these edits. I'm really glad you like them too!

I love your colors. I really like this set. I might even use it and I rarely download eyes because I just have one set at a time xD

[curiousb]

Thanks, pinket! I know that may people only like to use one set of eyes at a time, so I feel rather honoured that you are considering using these. :)

These are absolutely gorgeous! Ages ago I had embarked on a quest to recreate those eyes for myself and I never did succeed, so it's wonderful to see someone has done a full set of them. :)

As for more eye colours, there's definitely an interest here. :P If I may suggest, I'd personally really like to see some more unnatural colours (gold, pink, purple, red, orange, blind etc) and duo-toned eyes.

[curiousb]

I'm so glad you like them! I have been coveting the original set by Jessi since I first saw them, so couldn't resist when I discovered there was finally an opportunity to recreate them.

ZeroDark at GoS has also suggested some more non-realistic colours, and to be honest that's what I was thinking of too, so I shall definitely make an add-on set when I get a few spare minutes. :)

OHHH, as soon as I am ready to get my defaults ready, these are going to be my new default eye set. :D

[curiousb]

Oh, I'm very pleased you like them so much - thank you!

[peach_t]

beautiful eyes! Thank you!

I would definitely be downloading a less natural set, maybe something similar to pooklet's recolors of Mousey's BJoFS set with bright lime green, teal, electric blue and light blue-ish purple

[curiousb]

I'm definitely intending to make some 'unnatural' colours, particularly purples, but I can certainly make some other bright colours too. :)

And thank you!

absolutely wonderful eyes!

I haven't really downloaded many eyes, but after seeing these (which I snatched up right away!) I decided maybe it's time for me to stop worrying about my sims homes and start getting some nice new things for them! :) hehe. So, long story short. Thank you very much, these are great!!

[curiousb]

You're most welcome - thank you very much!

[aweeshie]

I know this upload is a bit old, but I was wondering if you still have the PSD files for this set of eyes?

[curiousb]

Sure! Here you are:

If anything's not clear when you open the file, please just ask!

I'm planning to make some more recolours at some point - I'd like to make some heterochromic versions I think.

[aweeshie]

Thank you so much! I always wanted more colours of this eye set, and I can't wait to see more recolours from you. =] I haven't decided what colours I will make just yet, but I think it will be an interesting learning experience (I haven't made eyes before). Thanks again!
