     How to Make+Post Skins using MCSkin3D in 10 Steps, Kinda


Hey guys! Today I will teach you how to make a skin using a little program called MCSkin3D. First, let's start b y explaining why it's call MCSkin3D: idk. But anyways, MCSkin3D (Im gonna call it MCS) is a skinning program made by Planet Minecraft staff members Pharil and whtdragon. I hope you like this [Number] Step tutorial on skinning with MCS.

Step 1: Download The Program. As simple as it sounds. Press this link to find the blog, written by Pharil: www.planetminecraft.com/mod/mcskin3d/ downloaded, open it by going to your folders and clicking it. You can experiment on how to run the program xD.

Step 2: Chose Your Skinning Layout. In the top middle-ish space on your screen you can see a normal skin, a weird looking skin layout thing, and both. Click on these to chose. You edit your skin using 3 designs: 3D, 2D, or Hybrid (Half screen on 3D and half on 2D.) I usually just switch between the two, mostly using the 3D design.

Step 4: Chose A Way To Use Color. In the bottom left corner of your screen is a play button surrounded by colors. Look above it and you see 3 tabs. This is how you chose a way to color! The one you see at first is the way most people chose colors. It easily allows you to chose precise colors for your skin. I like using the "Swatches" option because you can always use the exact same color and makes it easy to chose a lighter/darker color to shade. Overall, it's your pick.

Step 6: Design Your Skin. Might wonna press the "Pencil" tool in the top right-ish button next to the eye. Be unique and creative. Shade if nessicary (however you spell it). Have fun with it and add a lottle you. Just don't over do the design xD. There's multiple design short-cuts at the top like Darken/Lighten, Eraser (You know you need it.), and more. Take advantage!

Step 7: Notice I Skipped Step 5. I'm gonna make this look like an actual step by adding a lot of text here. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Actual Step 7: Press Save! In the top left hand corner you will find a small button labeled "Save." Press it and it gives your skin a bunch of swagger. Jk, it makes it a Percy Jackson skin. Okay for real now, it saves your current skin design. NOTE: This is irreversible! I think!

Step 8: Finding The Skin File On Your Computer. Go to the folder were you opened MCS and click the sub-folder labeled "Skins." This is where all your saved skins are that you made on MCS.

Step 9: Post Your Awesome Skin! To post your brand new skin, press... (Looking on the website to make sure this is correct.) Oh wait, I'm on my iPod, maybe I can get the the computer site if I... Never mind, I think it's Browse>Skins if not, Community>Skins. One or the other, maybe. Either way, press "Upload Skin" (maybe) and enter the information. I can't give you much help with this part cuz it's your skin, not mine. Just press save and have fun.

Step 10: Let The EXP Come Rollin In. Level up and enjoy the fact that multiple people like your skin! Or... they just pity you for how terrible it is.

Hope you liked this blog and tell me if you want a tutorial on Skindex or some other Minecraft skinning website in the comments below. Diamond and maybe even Favorite and Subscribe for more Tutorials AND Minecraft Skins. And , of corse, have a great day, see ya later. Bye!
