I think you forgot to shade, and color the hidden sides of the skin, under the arms and like that. i like the way you mad it, maybe a bitt fixes to it and im sure your downloads will go up. you can upload a new skin on this skin if u need to fix a skin. or just updated it:) Else i like it, even if its your first skin, its awesome!

Not bad for your first skin, but there is certainly a lot to improve on.

Firstly, the colours. The colours you've picked don't compliment eachother greatly, and are kind of boring. Here is a fanastic tutorial by KnobleKnives which is extremely useful for improving your colours and stuff.

Next, the shading. Usually when shading it comes down to personal preference as to what style you choose to do. Although I do suggest not to make repeating patterns like you did on the arms and legs, and try to make it more interesting. The feet/shoes or whatever are quite noisy here too. It's good to make shading follow the human anatomy, although I generally exaggerate everything a bit, so yeah.

Thankyou, this sort of criticism is what i was searching for, this will hopefully help me out alot, in creating better skins, the repeated patterns come from a skin guide i used so far, i'm not really liking that guide but i can't find complete other guides which style i accept, and i really don't get how to make my completly own shade style, I'll try to bring out better skins in the Future!

PS: I really like the shading etc, done on your Skins, maybe you could make a Skinning Guide in the future? :P

Always happy to give feedback on skins, I enjoy seeing people improve.

And I have though about making a skinning guide or something before, although I'm really not that good at actually 'teaching' stuff. Maybe some time in the future though. q:

This is pretty good for your first attempt! The colors are a bit strange though.

Yeah, i think the Inner Arm Parts a bit to one colored, and straight, i'll have to fix that in my next attempt, anything else that seems off? :) PS: I really like you're skins, try doing less teenage girls, and more other type of skins, (That's what i would do, there are way to many teenage girl skins out there atm.
