Hey guys! Here it is, what you've always been waiting for - a nice, easy-to-use, convenient collection of all your best skinning guides - here in one place!

Brought to you by PMC's own Skinning Mentor Program!

*Work In Progress*

For those of you who have skinning tutorials and guides, I encourage you to post them here so that they may be added! You will all be credited! Please specify whether the guide is Beginner Level, Intermediate Level, or Difficult Level based on the difficulty of the skills and understanding of skinning required to learn the most from the guide!

Be sure to add a short description of your guide or tutorial, no more than a couple sentences.

Guides will be listed according to author's name, alphabetically. (Well, the official one will be -soup)

Ignore my last one, if this ever gets picked up. Also, you guys planning on reviving this any time soon? If so, a suggestion would be to put a date it was posted next to each one so people will know how outdated each tutorial is.

I want to ask for something tutorial creators. I have wanted since my first skin to make an awesome Goku skin. My only problem (well not my only but my main one) is that I'm not good at using the hat to make better hair. Please someone post a tutorial on how to do 3-D hair (or just better hair) Thanks

Hello one and all,

I couldn’t help but notice this thread and there is a tutorial that for me got me making skins.

Turotial by Varunax: http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/varunas-anime-skin-tutorial/

I did not make this tutorial and I will admit that with my skins I do add detail on the side despite being told not too in the tutorial. This tutorial is mainly for creating skins for anime characters but I still think it is awesome as it talks in details about the dos and don’ts, expressions and hair.

Also a really great tip – make a basic nude skin. Whenever I start a new one I use a naked skin that I have created based on the anatomy of other skins that I have downloaded. This greatly helps to quickly get the tones and body parts in the right places.

Here is my nude starter skin - click to download.

Is there a special kind of guide you guys miss?
By now anyone can learn how to shade a skin.
But I am thinking about a guide on hair or metal parts or textures of clothes.
You decide
Don't ask big but I would like to spend my time on doing actual valuable things

RoxthesoxWhat's the best way to record me making a skin. I think a tutorial like that is easiest. And similarly, what's the best way of making a tut?

I have no clue what the best way to record skin-making is, actually :/
