    Amazing, Curie is so cute *-*
    The last image is really cool, okey her hands are missing, but that doesnt change the fact that it's cool :D

      Thanks very much. It is a new experience for her - having an organic body.
      There are some strange things that happen when you move the camera away too far.

      Thanks very much. She does say some very cute things. Lazman makes some great short dresses and the high heels are high.
      You get Curie's first

    It‘s always astonishing, what you are doing with NPC‘s ....I have no idea,how you made all the changes, but the result is impressive

      Thanks very much.
      Mostly, I just use LooksMenu but for some arcane reason, not all parts of all NPCs can be changed that way. Curie or CVRIE (who you've probably never met) is one of those cases where a mod is a useful way to change her appearance.

      Now, skip the rest of the reply if you don't want any more details ... )

      The mod gives her blue eyes. I wanted brown. I used LooksMenu to give her brown eyes. As long as I was in the LooksMenu, her eyes were brown but after exiting, they returned to blue. This is one of those character attributes that can be changed by an .esp file but not permanently by the LooksMenu application. I'm sure the computer code is functioning the way it was written. Why it was written that way is a mystery (to me but not to the author of the code ) .
      In order to give her brown eyes, I edited the mod with FO4Edit, a very useful modding tool. But, editing any program involves some risk that you'll screw it up. Maybe by using the wrong punctuation or any number of other ways. And, of course, I had to find the right methodology to tell FO4 that I wanted to give someone brown eyes. That one wasn't too hard but when it came to switching hairstyles, it got a little stickier. So, I go about it slowly and try to tread lightly.

      You are right, as far I never met Curie and I have no idea about her vanilla appaerance. Because I‘m still on the beginning, I use only some minor changes of the game.First I wand to see the origin

      I think that you're absolutely right to play all the original quests and meet all the vanilla characters, etc. I've just done it quite a few times and "variety is the spice of life".
      Eventually, I'm sure, you'll discover Vault 81 and meet the inhabitants. If you remember, and you want me to do so, I can inform you about one really annoying thing that can happen there.

      I wanted a cute face to go along with her endearing innocence, cheerfulness and positivity (I had to look that one up but I believe I'm using it correctly. )

    This quest is always a goal for me because Curie is my fav follower. I keep a save at that spot you are at, instead of restarting at the vault.
    In regards faces, preferences are always very personal, yours look fine. I will always stand by my comments earlier that hair is the greatest factor of a chars head. I really like this hair style and color you have chosen for the new Curie.

    Just looking over the mod you chose to use on Curie and am wondering if you are aware of FaceRipper. It worked last I used it, though other people said it failed them. FaceRipper had a way to interface with FO4Edit to create an esp from a char and apply it to NPC.

    In closing here, Her dress does look a bit tight in the chest. Nice shots

      I'm glad I didn't make a mess of your favorite follower.

      I think that even though there was a significant range in the vanilla hairstyle choices, there wasn't enough variety to make it a dominating factor in character creation, especially after filtering out some that I would just never use. But with all the choices provided by mods, your choice of hairstyle is a major statement about your character. You can now express your character anywhere from sophisticated elegance to tangled, frazzled mess or from punk to princess. Keeping everything else the same, changing the hairstyle/color makes a huge impact.

      Im actually using two mods that change the humanized Curie - this one which supplied the hairstyle and the one mentioned above (which is the later one in the mod list). I have heard of FaceRipper and looked into it a while ago. I didn't start playing FO4 at the start when FaceRippper was about the only way to change NPCs. After LooksMenu came out, FaceRipper became somewhat superfluous for my minimal needs. It may not be, but it seemed too complicated for lazy me to try to learn. Thanks for mentioning it and I will keep it in the back of my mind as an alternative.

      Well, the lazman-style dresses are always tight fitting.
      Thanks.

      Just one more mention of FaceRipper and it is in regards to it's use on the mysterious stranger of the perk category. That entity can be turned female and a face, body and outfit of your choosing as well.

    I dunno, that last shot is pretty cool, actually.

    Just be sure to let Curie know what a full bladder feels like so she won't embarrass herself

      I agree, it is pretty cool - but still, strange. Although, it does provide some clues as to how the game builds the world.

      That's one of the fun things about Curie. She has to learn to live in an organic body - with all of its limitations ("Oh! My insides feel peculiar.".) and all of its sensations ("Ouch!" and "Oh, my! That felt .... hmmm ... good.".).

    She's very pretty. Frankly, I don't see any problems with her chest. Looks fine to me.

      That body was constructed in the Institute. I dropped some hints in Isolde's Story - Tori that some members of the Institute may have been creating synths for purposes other than pure science.

      Curie: "Oh! I see. An innuendo. But this analogy is becoming confusing. If the body is the machine and the software of the brain controls the body but the brain is a part of the hardware ... Can we make a compromise and call it firmware? "

      Certainly. No worries whatsoever.
      Honesty is much appreciated.
