This is more or less a short list of what to do whilst skinning and what not to do. I hope it helps people!
Do:
Don't
I hope this at least helped somebody, type in any of your suggestions and I'll make sure to put those in!
Do:
- Draw out your base skin (unshaded version) 1st
- Make sure the skin parts (arms, legs, etc.) match up to all the others
- Find a consistent style of shading
- Make shure the hat layer (2nd head layer) matches up and doesn't obscure the 1st head layer
- Make sure any and all 1.8 layers (the new 2nd layers) match up to both the 1st layers and the other 2nd layers
- Make the arms and legs equally pronounciated (ex. big feet=big hands)
- Make colors try to blend with the rest of the skin
- Try to get a feel for where the light will be at it's brightest when shading
Don't
- Shade in horizontal or vertical lines
- Insert random colors
- Make certain parts be unshaded
- Ignore the rules of light
- Leave parts of the base skin unshaded when all the rest is
- If you started making a skin over another skin, don't leave the original skin parts showing
- Steal skins or copy/edit them and call them original
- Make inappropriate skins
- Leave out accidental pixels
- Title it something negative (ex. Sucky Skin or Bad Skin)
I hope this at least helped somebody, type in any of your suggestions and I'll make sure to put those in!
