There's a lot of mods out there with preset faces. Not sure what this forum has to offer but there are other websites that have a lot of face mods.

Welcome :)

I'd suggest picking a preset face and tuning it a bit to make it more like how you want it to be. Try some other than preset 1 though, I don't know why the devs thought it was a good idea to put the most ugly default face as the first preset, but they must have their reasons. Don't forget to adjust your hair and facial hair, and you're good to go. Also, visit shops and stores, and loot bodies for new clothing, so you can experiment and find out what clothes suit your character.

Edit: Also, Liam is a name I believe most FO3 fans will appreciate :turned:

Yeah, I hate it too.

But I did manage, after like 20 minutes in the face generator, to get an awesome look of a male character (though I find it impossible to recreate him, darn it!) You think http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/8769/screenshot2kk.png is a good look?

Hope Fallout 4 will have a much much much better face generator, because this one for F3 and FNV svcks big time.

and why is liam a liked name for people who played fo3? :)

Because Liam Neeson voices Dad in Fallout 3 :)

The lips, the nose and the cheeks are those that go gnarly very quickly for me.
As do the tones, playing around with the skin tone creates a fudged appearance easily imo.

I have a strong idea of what I find actractive and will keep those three features in mind.
Pulling the nose out tidy it up in shape gently, set the lips to a size that does not cause "trout pout", this is done better with under / over bite than actual size adjustment imo.
Then the cheeks, mostly set mid level on all areas.
Then move on to the jaw and then chin, these are closely linked and are best looked at constantly by moving the head side to side.

Skin tone, general, shade, eyes and brow are those that really need to be adjusted.
Go slow and take your time.

This is how I do it, I hope it helps, or at least does not hurt.

Edit: change race as well, sometimes a face looks better with a different base.

Note that on the face generator everyone looks like an idiot. Once you agree with a face and can see it ingame, it will often look better than it did on the generator.

Or the other way around :( That's at least what I've experienced.

You have height, the lower this is the lower the cheek bones.
You have depth this is how big they look, the more pronounced the more obvious.
You then have how sunken the frame is, the more concave the more inward and shallow the face should be.

Try setting these at mid level and see if it changes.
Then try lifting up the brow and moving the eyes up a bit too.

Or the other way around That's at least what I've experienced.

Follow the road ( yellow bricked ), east out of Goodsprings.
Get to the T in the road just as you hit a place called Jean Sky, head right ( south ), keep going south on that ol' yellow road.
You'll be in Kansas Primm in no time.

A NCR tinman trooper tells you what's going on as you approach, other than that go armed and look out.

Ehm... well, the town is taken over by criminals, and you can help the citizens of Primm, who are holding up in the casino, to get rid of them.

And on your way there, you will face Powder Gangers and Geckos.
