An Idea for More Complex Skintones
One of the details I loved in the Sims 2 was the ability to have weird skintones with more than one shade, like the animal skins like they have over at Genesims

But now in the Sims 3 with no real way to edit the skintone other than one main color, will skins like those be doable after more creation tools are made.
The only way I can see it being done since even the skintone selector doesnt seem to have room for custom skintones. is to create a full facemask with the desired custom skintone, covering up all of the face, and if there is a way do the same with the body, but instead use the Accessories tab to place them in. That way if I'm correct you could edit each different part of the skintone with all the colors availible, not just lighter and darker.
I havent mingled with the Sims 3 modding tools to know if this can be done though. I'm NOT asking for a request. I'm just wondering if this is a possible way to do it.
