How To Make a Custom Minecraft Skin For Java and Bedrock

Minecraft without skins is pretty boring and if you agree with me this video is perfect for you today I will teach you everything you need to know about Pointer skins how to make them where to make them how you can secretly have two skins at once and so on if that sounds

Interesting keep on watching first let’s go over some Basics about Minecraft skins to even be able to change your mind or skin you need to own a official Minecraft account no cracked accounts or launchers work for this method sadly but don’t worry I got you we have hidden 5

Different Minecraft Premium codes in this video so if you got a good eye you might get one right from here next thing I want to mention about the Skins is that there are two different types of skins the classic Steve and the bit newer Alex style at first you might not

Even notice the difference between the two but the arms on the Alex skin are one pixel thinner and that’s the only difference so if you want your minor character to be a bit skinnier pick the Alex style another thing about the Skins is that they actually consist of two

Different layers the bottom one is the main parts of your skin and the top one is used for adding details and depth to the Skin So when creating your skin you can play around with toes now that we know the basics the let’s think about the design to get the inspiration you

Can use Google or painters for example Google is pretty straightforward just Google for Minecraft skins the problem that you might run into is that there are a lot of random images that are absolutely not skins and to fix that I would recommend using Pinterest since as

You can see there are no random images here and all of them are just skins another method to find different skins for inspiration is to use name MC or a similar site here you can sort the Skins by new or trending for example there are also different categories at the bottom

Here so you can be even more specific and looking for the right skin name MC also has ability to search for different users and their skins so if you know someone whose skin you like you can copy it by downloading it from here and if

You want to be Bob Ross and paint the skin yourself but not sure what colors to use with your skin I have a solution go to a site called colors.go here you can pick or create different color palettes that match with each other just click on the color and

The hex code will be copied to your clipboard there are many different useful tools here on the site so check it out if you’re having a hard time choosing the right color scheme now that you have your source of inspiration and the colors you can start actually making

The skin there are quite a few options we can choose from but all have the quirks and features the first one is minecraftskins.com skin editor I will put all the links in the description as well this one is pretty straightforward and easy to use it has all the features

A beginner skin maker would need one of my favorite ones East Auto tone tool this makes the texturing of the skin so much easier using this tool just color over any areas you want to have a bit more texture and as you can see it automatically uses different shades of

The color to give this cool effect another useful tool here here is the mirror door which allows you to mirror the design to both sides this way you don’t have to design both of the hands or the legs separately and can save you a lot of time to toggle between the

Outer and inner layer you can use these two buttons here there is also trick we can do with these two skin layers and for that edit the top layer of the skin to be someone’s else’s skin or whatever texture you want it to be and when going in the options skin customization the

Top layer of the Skins can be turned on or off individually in the game this way you can basically choose which skin out of the two you want to use you can use it to hide in plain sight or even pretend to be someone else that you actually are not all in all

Microskins.com skin editor is very simple yet effective site to use but next we have a site that is a bit more advanced and that is called PMC skin 3D here you can do a lot more things for example you have more troll over the colors as you can see here there are

Different pixel brushes and presets you can post a character however you want you can color in 3D 2D or even see both of them at the same time this can make some of the process a lot more easier there are also more options about mirroring and brush stroke settings or

Import in the skin without having to download it from someone else first this is probably the best site for you if you are a bit more advanced and know what to do with all of these settings so go and try it out and let me know how it goes

The third side I want to show is minecraft.nova skin.me this one can be helpful in different ways first of all it is super easy to open up your skin in here and then you can do quite a lot use different clothing pieces for example so

If you don’t want to draw your skin from scratch you can use these pieces to put it together you can also pose your character however you want put something in his hands and even take a picture the site also has a feature to merge two skins together for example if I want the

Legs from lowering skin and potty from Robins I can upload both of them and just merge them with this button here and now I have a skin that is half Robin and half flowery Nova skin also has the wallpapers page where you can create some really cool custom images open any

Of them and input the player username you want to use now you can have me exploding some TNTs or us relaxing after a hard mining session or even images with nine layer skins which all look amazing I definitely recommend trying it out to get a really cool wallpaper both

Sides are great but what they are basically doing is just editing a small image for you so as the last method I wanted to Showcase that just importing your skin file into whatever photo editing software like Photoshop or paint you can just draw pixel by pixel after

You are done just make sure to save the image SP and cheat or the skin probably won’t work remember that skins don’t actually have to be super detailed just look at dream he’s literally a cream blob running around with a happy face and people love that skin or charts not

Found who just added classes and I’m guessing that is a supreme logo t-shirt anyway now that we have our skin let’s see how to upload it and use it for that go to minecraft.net profile under the Java Edition click change skin choose if your skin is classic or the slim version

And upload the file he says that the skin is now active in Java your player skin can also be changed with a resource pack though resource pack skins can only be seen by players who have the same exact resource pack enabled and it will affect only the players with a default

Skin if you want skins for Bedrock Edition it is a bit different you will have to upload the Skins to here and actually you can have up to 5 different skins uploaded that you can choose between with don’t tell me to constantly upload your skin images there’s also an

Option to use the marketplace and pay for different parts of the skin or other Cosmetics this is a huge advantage to bedrock by enabling a lot more skin customization and add-ons but we ourselves are Java players and how to just live with the simple skins but now

You know all the options and things you can do with the Minecraft skins good luck with designing and thank you for watching bye foreign foreign
