Features you can choose this way include eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and ears. (Note: The above image has all of the features I used for my character, but without any sculpting done.)ДЄs you move your mouse over your characterвЂ™s face, you will notice that you can drag and shape just about anything you want, but before you do that, you will want to select the styles of features you want to work with first.

In the above picture, the only changes I have made from the original preset (aside from removing makeup and other markings) are hairstyle, hair color, skin color, and eye color. YouвЂ™ll also want to have a desired hairstyle in mind, but I recommend starting out with a short style so you can see as much of the face as possible while you are working, and then you can go back and change it at the end. You can go ahead a choose an eye color to match as well. This could be personal preference, but I have found that working from top to bottom is the best way to get the face I want.ДЇirst, youвЂ™ll want to choose a hair and skin color since a lot of your other choices will be influenced by those. Note: My advice is the same for creating a male character, but youвЂ™ll have a few different options, such as facial hair. Before I change anything, I start out by going into the Extras menu and choose the option to remove all makeup, blemishes, and so on so I can start with a clean slate. In my example, IвЂ™m using the default вЂњFace 01вЂќ female character preset.

Build on a strongВ foundationДЄs with its previous role-playing games, Bethesda was kind enough to offer a number of character presets that already look pretty decent on their own.В One of the easiest ways to get the look you want is to choose the preset that most closely matches your vision and then alter it until you are satisfied. If you want a list of the facial features I chose for my character, I have include one at the end.

Once Bethesda Game Studios finally releases modding tools for the game, we might seeВ some mods that make the face-sculpting tools a little more user friendly, but until then, here are a few tips on how to make a character that actually looks like they were on the right side of the vault door when the bombs dropped. While making a hilariously disgusting character is fairly easy in Fallout 4, making a character that actually looks good is a bit more difficult.
