Welcome to the Contest Discussion Thread on the Inanimate Objects Skin Contest!

Here you can discuss about your skins, the contest and any recommendations you feel need to be added!

Definition of Inanimate:

1. Not alive, esp. not in the manner of animals and humans.

This means, no humans incorporated into your skins!

Examples of Inanimate Objects:

A Spoon!
A Pool Stick!
A Phone!
A Coconut!
A Pine Tree!
A Hammer!
A Eraser!
A Lamp!


Your goal is to create a skin that resembles an object and bring it to life!

Who knows how many inanimate objects this Minecraft world can hold!

So get skinning and bring an inanimate object to life!

As always, don't forget to read up on the rules and details of the contest! Prizes are involved too!

If you need help making skins, try out this new program, MCSkin3D!

I made a teddy bear skin View Teddy bear
Because I was trying to think on an inanimate object that would be easy to convert into a skin

It's only the first day and I've already seen some pretty good looking skins

In the inanimate objects contest can you have more than one object in the skin, for example the leg is a pencil and the arm it a bottle e.t.c

Yeah that works. The whole concept is inanimate, so it's a huge variety of skins you can create.

I would go with no

They aren't inanimate if you go by what inanimate means, but the art community consider them as.

No. The definition we are standing by inanimate is something that is not living/breathing. Planets need oxygen to survive so that makes them living.

Open it in paint then save it. Paint will make anything "transparent" opaque.

I was mistaken. Plants are allowed in this contest. They will be considered inanimate though they need oxygen as well.
