This skin at work has been completed. Emporor Aurelian is now available for download. There were only two other skins modeled after this man. Those skins were useful for configuring the armor's proportions and constructing the helmet.
Emperor Aurelian has been my most difficult project. The skin had taken four days to complete. I am sure its flaws are very evident.
The zombie skin I at work on now is significantly less difficult, but it is taking more time than I had initially suspected. The details I have decided to add to it are considerably uncommon, but I am determined to complete it today and no later.

I am working on a skin modeled after a Roman emperor. I suspect it will be finished by tomorrow. The "molding process" has been a tad daunting, but it has been an enjoyable challenge. I've made several mistakes. Somehow I've managed to make the majority of the skin too dark. Luckily its brightness and contrast are not difficult to adjust.
Poseidon has gained more downloads and views than I intended. I did not expect to reach number one on trending. I am still confused as to how my work has managed to rank so high so quickly. I cannot wrap my head around it. It must be a common occurrence for everyone. There is no other explanation.
I have been getting requests offering money for my work and even offers to work on complex modding projects with a variety of other coders and designers that are likely far more skilled than myself. I have not accepted any of these offers out of sheer confusion. I should be overjoyed, but instead I am bewildered.

It’s because your skins are truly amazing! Everything you have been offered and earned is well deserved!

My aquatic adventures contest entry has been uploaded.
I fear I may have done a bad job. Luckily, the skin doesn't look terribly inconsistent in comparison to the rest of my feed.
Poseidon is now available for download.

I have finished my skin of Poseidon. Only, I fear posting it at this time because it will not match my feed in the slightest. Its colors are far more vibrant than the skins I have been uploading.

Thank you. Your comment has been helpful.
The skin in question has been uploaded.

I'm sure everyone here is subscribed to you to see your skins, not only 1 colour style you do. I know I would love to see all of your different styles! I understand the feeling of being anxious about posting a skin, but it's worth it when the community sees it and likes it!

I suppose you’re right.

It's okay to have some form of diversity in colors in skins ^^

I have managed to fix the banner's proportions. I am not confident in it, but it should better suit my work better than the art I am currently using.

I completed the banner, only to find that I had made it the wrong size.
I will have to start over again. The banner would have worked well if I hadn't mucked up the proportions. Hopefully I will find an opportunity to use the image elsewhere.

I have been working on original pixel art to replace the banner and profile photo I currently possess. I have also been working on a new skin inspired by Poseidon for Planet Minecraft's aquatic adventures contest. I have textured the entire body. The clothes have been another matter entirely. I am pleased with the skin's muscles and facial structure. I cannot seem to get the color of the gauntlets, robe, and other items to fit together. The contrast of the gold is too high, the red jewels are frown-worthy, and the robe is vibrant and flows well but the scales that crawl up his legs look crowded.
Originally I had intended to create a skin inspired by a character from a Disney film.(I've forgotten his name.)
Unfortunately, the merman tail didn't end well and I realized it wasn't possible to create the tail without deleting pixels of the legs.
I wish I could submit the skin unclothed because I am so pleased with the muscular body of the skin.
It is unlikely the skin will be finished any time soon.

Unfortunately all skins submitted must be, according to the rules board, valid and usable skins. Skins with transparencies on the first layer will be disqualified. Then again, if the desired transparent areas are #a0b0e0 they would not technically be transparent and the skin would technically be usable. I will consider it.

ziggy like stardust said 2018-06-05 19:46:14

The transparent pixel issue can be solved by using the color code #a0b0e0, which is the PMC background for skin viewing.

A new skin has been uploaded.
I am not entirely pleased with the result.
I decided to try my hand at bandages, since I had never seen them done well.
I look forward to using the skills I currently possess to piece other uncommon projects together.

The new skin has finally been finished.
I'm not entirely certain about its horns. I look forward to uploading it. The design ended up becoming more complex than I thought it would. It took a good deal of time, but hopefully the end result has been worth the effort.

Another new skin is in the process of being textured.
This skin has become more complex than intended.
I am having a bit of difficulty getting the thorned vines wrapped around the skin's arms and legs right, much less the flowers.
Flowers are not something I do often. I wanted to experiment with tears and scars. My color pallet is a bit strange. It's been a good deal of time since I've seen white, magenta, black, and blue used together.
If anyone has any advice to share on "wrapping" vines around rectangular legs, it would be much appreciated.

The amount of views this page has garnered in two days is astounding.
To those who have been commenting and leaving diamonds on my posts, thank you for viewing my work.
This page will need its own original artwork soon. Another skin has been completed and will be uploaded today.
I have been considering grouping my skins into separate collections. Separate collections would ensure that I can experiment with simplistic and detailed textures without making this page's feed inconsistent.
Only, I am not entirely certain it's possible. I haven't quite wrapped my head around all of Planet Minecraft's features.
I haven't done any marketing or anything similar to promote my work. I'm confused as to why the skins I have uploaded are drawing in this many views. There isn't anything particularly special about them. Nonetheless, I appreciate everyone who has subscribed.
I am having difficulty subscribing and "diamonding" everyone back. If you have left a diamond on my work and would like me to leave a diamond on yours in return, I suggest commenting as well. Every time I log in my inbox is filled with so many notifications it is difficult to keep track.

Don’t worry about it :)

Thank you. I seek to continue to improve my work.
I apologize if my response is at all awkward or stiff, I have difficulty replying to detailed comments.

Thank you. I apologize for the late response. Replying in a timely amount of time has become difficult.

morningblues said 2018-06-02 13:24:23

I feel like this is a problem that most skinners deal with, including me. They feel as if they just simply don’t understand how special their skins can be to others. Your skins are gorgeous and the community of pmc loves them. <3

ziggy like stardust said 2018-06-02 13:16:32

Your skins get many diamonds and otherwise notifications because, even though you might not see them as anything special, the community does. We love your shading, palettes, and creativity. Those three mixed together are something you rarely see in skins, and yet you managed to combine them all to create masterpieces ♥

The skin is nearly finished. Slowly, I am becoming more confident with its progress.
I can't seem to get the hair that flows past their shoulders right. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
This will be my fifteenth attempt.

A new skin is in progress of being made.
I've come to realize the majority of the skins I had lost were all male.
I am not certain I will publish it.
I had decided to go online with a surgeon theme because a build project I have been at work on for two weeks now bares a similar theme.
I can't seem to figure out how to make it less unappealing.
