Category	Title	Description
Body Shop - All	None	The mesh chosen doesn't really seem to match the style and textures nicely. Finding the right mesh can be quite difficult though, sometimes it can help to rework the texture to fit the mesh better, or trying to find a (custom) mesh that works better with the textures. Or improvising can help too! :)

General Guidelines

When recolouring, the most difficult task is finding a suitable mesh for this splendid idea you have in mind! When using either a custom mesh that was made by someone else (do check their TOU when you do so), a mesh you have made yourself, or Maxis' in-game meshes, make sure that the texture works perfectly well with and is suitable for the mesh!

For example, the texture of a fridge shouldn't appear on a couch. Or, a winter coat shouldn't be looking like it's tattooed right onto a sim's upper body, but poofy! :)

Examples

Good example

Why is this a good example?

The texture is a bit edgy, and not used on the entire hoodie, so it's not overwhelming, and looks cool!

Bad example

Why is this a bad example?

The texture is far too busy and overwhelming for this formal dress.

Good example

Why is this a good example?

The traditional style of the sofa really works well with the faded roses texture :)

Bad example

Why is this a bad example?

This coffee table is very angular and modern, and the roses texture is really not suitable.
