How to use the Skin Editor

  1. Start from Steve, Alex, a blank skin, a username or your own file.
  2. Pick Base layer or Outer layer, then a colour.
  3. Paint on the 3D model or the flat skin. Switch to Rotate to turn the model.
  4. Download the PNG and upload it at minecraft.net or in the launcher.

FAQ

What is the outer layer?

The second layer of a skin sits slightly off the body, so hats, jackets and sleeves look 3D. Pick Outer layer to paint it, and use the eraser to make parts see-through.

What's the difference between Classic and Slim?

Slim (Alex) arms are 3 pixels wide instead of 4. Choose the same arm type when you upload the skin.

Can I edit my current skin?

Yes. Type your username and press Load, then paint over it.
