Changing skin tones.

I have M4 and Freak4. I want to change the skin tone only to an African American skin tone. Can I do this without a Morph? And if so, how? I also want to remove his hair to make him bald. Can I do that?

    Models are bald, till hair is applied. If you desire to change skin tone, this can be done in surfaces tab, changing textures. Now if you desire to change face shapes, then morphing would be required.

    I do believe the OP is saying the texture has painted on Hair. The only fix for that is to use a different texture.

    You will need to use a different skin to make him bald. The default skin that comes with M4 has painted on hair.

    wancow has some instructions on how to change a skin texture to be much darker:

    He notes that you don't want to darken the bottom of the hands and feet as much as the rest of the skin. He used Gimp, the free photo editor program to edit the skin diffusion textures. Don't forget to save them in a new location and not overwrite you originals.

    There is a free black male character available at Render Candy called the Boss:

    I think it is ok to link to this because is is a freebie, but if the link gets deleted by the mods google "Render Candy" and go to the freebie section. The Boss is the last entry.

    The Boss has a beard, which may not be what you want.
