Here is A. J. Edwards.

Why does he have blonde hair you ask?!!? Well, as he got older he decided to start dyeing his hair. He wanted to be different than his brother. T. J. was always the good guy. T. J. always excelled at everything he did. T. J. got the best of everything, got the better life, stable relationship. A real hard worker. While A. J. lagged behind.

A. J. wanted to be the rebel, wanted to be his own person, wanted to have his own identity. He didn't want to be known as "the twin brother of."

So, today, he marches to his own tune. Dyeing his hair was the first step to freedom and independence. He broke the bonds of being the twin brother of. It was a curse he wanted to be free of.

Now, it's up to you. Do you let him stay on the course he's on, or do you try to make peace between the brothers? The choice is yours.

He is packaged with Maxis hair. Now, I made this using the BodyShop from OFB. If that makes a difference, I don't know.

Time for the good stuff.
His stubble comes from pimp-my-sims.com.
His showerproof skintone is from Kavar. It's BodyBuilder with black hair.
His eyes are ECO Natural grey eyes, by SoulSliver.
And his eye brows are Z Bushy Brow_Blacker, from 3dconsortium.com.
He only dyed the hair on his head, not his whole body

Meshes are included per Marvine and BeosBoxBoy's policy change dated, March 2007.

You will need the hair and mesh from SIZZ at MTS2

Thank you

I was still playing around with GIMP trying different things out.

So much to learn........

I LOVE the Gimp.

Have fun with it. To me - you can never really do anything wrong with this Sim thing - every process is a learning experience and can be fascinating to see.

There's a site I LOVE. They have some of the best creators and creations, but they have a thread that criticizes other Simmers work........and admittedly there ARE Sims creations I do not like........but I think it's a bit cruel. My creations are not perfect, nor do I claim them to be - but never having had training and it just being a hobby - I think I do okay. I would NEVER feel comfortable criticizing other's works. Ever. Everyday people should learn things and should FEEL FREE to learn and go through failures to get to the place they want to be. Anyway - I'll come down from my soapbox now.

What I do is, if I get an idea in my head, I use Google and see if such a thing can be done. If it can, I make a copy of the pictures and just start experimenting untill I get it the way I want it.

Not too long ago, I finally learned how to use the color picker button. That's a life saver unto itself.

A few things I'm addicted to when I play around with pictures:
Magic Wand
Eraser
Pencil
Paint Brush
Smudge Tool
Color Picker

If you trust what I've done so far, send me some pictures and what you'd like to have done, and I'll see what I can do.
