Most people use blender, posing programs, etc. While leaving others clueless. If these programs work for you, then this tutorial is not for you. This is a free way of posing your skins HOWEVER you want with no download involved. (Other than your finished product ;3) You may use this however you want. You can use the raw image, or insert yourself in a picture on a image editing program as the finished product IS a .png image. Just you, whatever your holding (optional), and a transparent background. Enjoy!!
Step 1: Website and Uploading
Nova skins is the website of topic. You can use it for editing, making, and posing skins. It is a lot better for quick edits, posing, and adding armor than making actual skins from scratch. This is an extremely quick process that is very useful and very good at it's purpose too. I use this method to make my thumbnails for my YouTube channel, which you may check out for examples.
If you are not familiar with it, here is the link. Nova Skin
1: Now that you are on Nova Skins, Click 'Skin Editor'.
2: To the very left, Under the subtabs (Wear, Tags, etc.) click 'open'.
3: As your files open, click your desired skin's layout. As if you were uploading a skin to PMC.
4: Now that you have your skin selected, go to the 'Pose' Tab.
Step 2: Posing your Skin
1: There are many default presets in skin posing available, such as Walking, Hugging, Jumping, and Other Poses already available. You may use these presets to be quick.
2: Then there is random poses, which will give you a random pose like looking to the side and other things. You can keep clicking this option until you find a pose you like.
3: Then there is the "Custom Pose" option, where you can control the way your skin's arms, legs and head look. The Three editing options are: "Elevation, Rotation, and Inclination. You may also 'Bend' your arms and legs to give a new 'realistic' feel if you like it. You can mess around with these until you find something that you like.
Step 3 (Optional): Adding an Item
1: Click the Diamond Pick Axe under the default poses in the 'pose' tab. Click 'Hold Left' or 'Hold Right' to determine which hand the item will be held on.
2: Click the item you desire and simple the item will appear on your skin as if it's holding it.
3: You may now continue posing your skin.
Step 4: Getting the Picture!
1: Click the "Screenshot" button at the very top right of the screen when you have your desired pose.
2: When the picture comes up, DO NOT click anything in the "Advertise Here" box. Just right click the screen, and save your image!
3: The image is (as said) is a png file. It is your character, it's item (if used), and a blank/transparent background which, if wanted, may be used in a picture editing program to your own desire. P.S: The cover image of this blog is not edited, but you may edit it all you want.. put a background, add words, add other poses, go wild! :3 Spread your wings and flyy :D
Step 5: Other Tips and Tricks
1: When the hand appears when you hover your mouse in the surrounding area of the skin, you can change the angle your skin is facing.
2: To get rid of the grid over your character, go to the top of the Character viewing window and unclick the box with the little grid next to it.
3: If you want to remove your hat, go to the bottom left of the Character viewing window and uncheck the little hat icon above the checked off head icon.
4: For whatever reason, you can also remove your body, arms, legs, and head... have fun you shenanigan puppy ;3
