  What does the first minecraft skin you ever made look like?
  Minibabu • 2025-09-12 14:28:57
  
  I made it entirely on the outer layer. I didn't know how layers work lol
  
  CelestialTrollestia • 2025-02-04 07:06:38
  
  I don't remember the first one I made using premade parts, but the first one I made from scratch was an unshaded version of this, I think. It may also have not had the goggles. I'm not sure.
  
  Cirxett • 2025-02-03 03:59:41
  
  it was very generic, tho tbf I havd to have started from somewhere
  
  MoonAstraea • 2025-02-02 17:38:47
  
  I don't have access to my old skindex account anymore lol (pretty sure it got deleted or smth idek) but my first ever skin was one of those classical ninja/assassin wolf-girl skins (i think the overall outfit/tail were blue or cyan & white, and black and the hair was probably like a lighter blue - i think it was actually probably more cyan than blue haha)
  
  i originally started making skins in like 2011-2012 (i didn't really know what i was doing at the time tho but i was obsessed with those kinds of skins as a child) so take that as you will 😭

  Hi and welcome!
  I've added you to the group.
  
  I would definitely start with learning shading or skin design (whatever you're most comfortable with).
  We have a couple of guides on the subject:
  https://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/a-guide-to-skin-design/
  https://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/skinning-understanding-shading-hue-shifting-and-colors-5562100/
  
  If you want to start with shading, I would suggest joining a re-shade contest, as they can be a great way to experiment without having to design a whole skin.

Hello Shady Skinners,

So I was thinking what skin we should do together and it hit me. We should make fan skins of Cyprezz and PMC. It's something simple and something we all know about.

How to participate:
Let me know which part you want to do. You pick one part from either the PMC or the Cyprezz skin. You work on it and when it is finished, send me the link.

Cyprezz*

Head: Minibabu / My part

Body: Herobrine_2143 | My part

Left arm: SouthDakotaGirl (My part)

Right arm: MoonAstraea | (My part)

Left leg:

Right leg:

I suggest looking at pictures and concept images of robots when working on your part of the Cyprezz skin.

PMC

Head:

Body: inzanely | my part: [ i tried to go for a more casual look with a cropped jacket while also incorporating the pmc colors, also added the beginnings of a robotic arm because i thought it'd look nice ]

Left arm: (has been done by DaniAdler)

Right arm:

Left leg:

Right leg:

if your having trouble picking just know that the body is probably the hardest.

Remember you don't have to make your part exactly like their characters. Take some creative liberties. Come up with some ideas or designs and have fun with it. The goal is to make two skins that have a mosaic of different styles, ideas and colors.

If you need some one on one help just PM me I'm willing to help you through designing your part, shading and making it in look the way you want it.

Deadline: TBD
It's a 64x64 skin. Do them both as Steve format (as it's easier to convert to Alex if need be).

Also I (South) will be the one to edit the skin parts together.

If you have any comments or questions PM, I'm always happy to help!
