So you want to make your own Minecraft skin? Well read on! I hope you have some serious MS paint skills, because making a minecraft skin isn’t the easiest thing you can do (it’s not too difficult either, so don’t freak out).
The first thing you’ll need is the minecraft skin template, which you can download here.
As we can see in the minecraft skin template, every part of the minecraft sprite is on a seperate part of the image. So each part that you want your skin to have, you’ll need to color in in MS paint/photoshop or something similar.Be careful because this image is blown up about 100 times, so when you save your finished skin it will need to be 64×32 pixels. Keep that in mind when you’re designing your minecraft skin.
If you want something to go off of, here is the default minecraft skin that everyone starts with.
I would suggest first making a mask to see how you get on making a minecraft skin, and then once you have something you are comfortable with then try something more ambitious like an entire suit and mask. Again, the minecraft skin template is there to guide you.
If you’re not that interested in making one yourself then check out the skins we have here and download one. Alternatively, use the minecraft skin editor to edit an existing skin!
