    Made this skin for someone who offered to donate in exchange. He didn't, so I uploaded it publicly. Enjoy!

    Hey guys, it's been a busy weekend for me with classes and job interviews, so I haven't made anything new yet. If you missed it, though, I did start up a contest on Planet Minecraft - I got sick of seeing so many clones of Simon's Honeydew skin, so I started a contest for people to make DWARVES THAT ARE NOT HONEYDEW! If you want to compete, you will need an account on Planet Minecraft.

    Anyway, time to get to what you guys have been suggesting...
    Quote from A Can Of Win

    I have a suggestion, Peter Venkman from Ghostbusters: Also, could you do an alternate of your Commander Shepard skin without the helmet?

    If you click on the Commander Shepard skin, you will see a link to a variant I did without a helmet. I just didn't put both here.

    Quote from TheTopazz
    Hey I was hoping you could make a skin of this for me! thanks alot in advaNCE.

    Your image link didn't work, but I'm not even going to bother looking into it because the title has the word 'anime' in it and I don't do that kind of stuff.

    Quote from Nureku

    If you feel like doing reskins of what you have, may I request the Hacker RIG from Dead Space?

    Perhaps. I'll look into it later.

    Quote from Mist3rMidnight

    May I suggest something from the upcoming dungeon crawler Diablo 3? It seemed like you were missing a more tribal like skin.
    Of course, I understand if you find the second image or first one (mainly the second it may seem) are impossible to do because of their complexity. Well, thank you for your time. Very nice job by the way :smile.gif: .

    I'll give it a shot for sure, I was actually meaning to do some Diablo 2 and 3 themed skins.

    Quote from Abaddon1337

    Legolas from ,,The Lord of the Rings": ...Please :biggrin.gif:

    He's actually already on my list, I just haven't gotten around to him yet.

    Can I have Corvus? (DQIX)

    Much to my own dissapointment, most users are yet incapable of even assembling a skin from pre-made parts. Even so, the green-wash over your image does not well show the actual skin object as it will appear in-game, which will only discourage further any downloads or use of your work.

    Ooh you made the move over? Good, too many people making skins handicap themselves by only using NovaSkin/MinerShoes/MCSkinEdit.

    I actually wrote a step by step guide to making skins, you can see it here (Scroll down to the description).

    Another fantastic skinner from PMC named Halucid made a video recording of his skin making method, you might be able to gain some inspiration from it.

    Hey guys. I'm hosting a skinning contest on Planet Minecraft, and I figured I would share it with you here, as well.

    The thread for it is here.

    The rules for the contest are as follows:

    1. Absolutely no Honeydew.
    No part of the skins submitted may be copied in any way, shape, or form from the Yogcast skin. No parts at all may be copied from the Yogcast skin. You will be disqualified.

    2. Skins must be new and made for this contest.
    No copies, re-posts, or old skins will be accepted. Give us something new and fresh, please!

    3. Submit something you made.
    Sampling skins is not 'making' a skin. It is copying and applying minor edits. SkinCraft is not 'making' a skin. It is copying from a library of 'parts'. Take your time, start from scratch, and make something completely unique!

    4. One entry per person.
    Each user will only be permitted to submit one skin for this contest. This doesn't mean you can't make more, but I would suggest submitting only your best one, for obvious reasons.

    5. The contest will run for one week.
    Post dates must be made after today's date, Sept. 7th. The contest will end a week from today, on Wednesday, Sept. 14th. Skins submitted after the 14th will not be accepted.

    In order to submit skins, you will have to be a member of Planet Minecraft. As a skinner, I highly recommend you make an account there - their gallery and upload features are the best out there as it is. If you want to compete, go make an account (if you don't already have one) and share your skins in the thread!

    I'm currently hosting a Dwarf skin contest on Planet Minecraft. There are already a few nice submissions, probably with more to come.

    Check it out here.

    Why are the cow udders... on his side and back? It looks like you're not really sure how skins work. Perhaps you should use a template, or a program such as MCSkinEdit, to fix this up a bit.

    Finally did Ghost from MW2 (I know I know it's not even a popular game anymore but he's rumored to be in MW3 as well!)

    i would like to see Raziel from Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver :smile.gif:, maybe Kain too :smile.gif:. Vault boy from fallout? :smile.gif:

    All good ideas. Vault Boy has been done to death, but Raziel I can definitely see turning out nice.

    Quote from Twidragon

    She does some nice stuff; looks similar to your style!

    Well, its shameful to see that female skins get thumbed down. Girls can be baddassess too :x

    Oh well, I'm sure if you did do those skins you would of done a good job; your still one of my favorite skin makers in this community that I like to watch :3

    Meh. There's that, and then there's the fact that female skins are much harder to shade and shape appropriately. It's hard to represent curves on a flat surface, you know?

    Finished up Gordon Freeman. Made a tutorial out of it as well, you can read through it on the page for the skin:

    EDIT:: Someone requested a full HEV suit as well, which was just a quick-edit:

    Quote from Xeomonos

    How about another suit for ol' Samus Aran?

    I think two is enough for now, maybe later if I run out of other ideas.

    Quote from Twidragon
    I noticed there is a lack of female badasses in the first post of yours.

    Mostly because there aren't many female minecrafters, it seems, and people don't really like them as much as the male ones. In fact, I've had some female skins thumbs-down'd a lot on the site I upload them on. It kinda discourages making more. I would recommend you seek out a user named Cadsuane for all your female skin needs - she has a very nice style as well and prefers female skins over male. You can find her gallery linked at the bottom of the first post in the thread. I think I saw her post here the other day, too.

    Sorry if I'm being a bit whiney, naggy, or impatient, but I was just wondering what happened to Thrawn? You said yes and yet its not on ur to-do list.

    Finished him. Sorry, I actually keep a separate to-do list on notepad in my skins folder and sometimes I forget to update the one in the thread.

    Could you make a bear with the color palette of the bear on the bear hunters back?

    I don't really do furry skins/animal skins.

    Quote from Lionhartchicken

    Can you do the guy and girl stick figures from xkcd ( These delightful chaps, though I'll admit this isn't a particularly badass sketch, it was just the first one I found with the characters I wanted ) but can you please make them as stick figure-ish as possible or maybe Illidan from WoW / WC3 ( Here he is, sorry for hyperlinks, I'm bad at image embedding and stuff )

    I was asked that before, and the demon form proved impossible. I did him, but as he was before he became a demon prince.

    Quote from NewSheoth

    Epic collection of Warhammer 40k skins you have here. Say, could you, by any chance, make an eldar skin? Say, that of a warlock (one looks decidedly badass here), or an avatar (the giant-living-god-made-of-magma)? Would be very epic indeed if you did.

    Well that might be fun. I'll see what I can do. That's image is of a Farseer from Dawn of War, no? Of course, the headdress may prove difficult...

    Quote from XDAvenger93

    I have a suggestion for you: It's the best looking Black Templar I found I'd love if you could give it a try if/when you have the time.


    I am afraid that such a skin would be impossible to replicate without using HD mods. HD skins can take several hours to create, based on source material. I would ask that you find something simpler, that can be produced with 8 pixels for chest and head width, and 4 pixels for the arms/legs. That's how skins are shaped, and that is what I work with.

    I did a more basic version of the Black Templar marines already, though:
