I don't know I realized how dangerous Massivemobs can be and survived the night just barley along with a war looming over my faction made me realize i needed to find another way to make money.So i took my first crack at creating and shading my first skin.:P

I know its not great any tips?
I also gave up on trying to put a screenshot of it so hears the link to it on skindex.

(I still cant get the screenshots to work so here the link on Planet Minecraft)

Hi! First off, this is a wonderful first skin, and is a lot better than many could muster. But, there are still flaws (as with any skin).

The shading is too orderly; shading is everything on a skin, and with the shirt, it just looks flat. Try more of a varied shade to bring out the folds or the wrinkles. Same with the hair and skin. I reccomend a darker shading, just because I think it looks nice, but if you go for more of a light shade, that's a good style too. Also, I would add more detail to the clothing. What items would this man have on him? Jewelry, pouches vests? Little details would be a nice way to make this skin more unique.

Good luck!~
