Things You'll Need
Instructions
Run SkinEdit.
Create a new skin by selecting "New" in the upper left corner.
Paint the specifics of the new skin by filling in colors as they correspond to the boxes in the SkinEdit layout. For example, the "Face" box is the plane that shows the character's face, whereas the "Left" box just next to "Face" is the plane that shows the left side of the character's face.
Paint the image of a hat, armor, sunglasses, or other headwear in the "Hat" box to create a second layer. Headwear is the only extra layer of clothing that can be added to a "MineCraft" character model.
Save your character model.
