“Ugly to Beautiful” Challenge

The “Ugly to Beautiful” challenge is a challenge in which you take a Sim (downloaded from from The Gallery) that has been tugged and pulled in CaS so much that they’re practically a mass of clay. Your job is to make them as presentable looking as possible. At least that was my take on it anyway. :-P

It's dreadfully depressing that half the 'ugly' sims people are creating for the ugly-to-beauty challenge have one of the afro hairstyles, and their 'beautiful' counterparts once they've been made over have one of the straight styles.

What the fuck does that say about the status of natural hair?

The other half are fat, and while I've seen the odd person try to subvert the idea that fat is ugly by maintaining the sim's weight and body shape while making over their face, more often than not the resulting 'beautiful' sim is slender.

There are plenty of other things that keep coming up in the 'ugly' side of things. Like sims who have some of the aging face overlays, or sims with hook noses. Obviously this whole thing was created as a bit of harmless fun, and a way for people to learn how to use the new sculpting tools. But man if it isn't an academic paper waiting to be published, fascinating really. The whole concept of 'ugly-to-beauty' is a clusterfuck, even if it is just a bit of fun with no real malice behind it. That's not how these things work in general anyway.
