Create Minecraft skin - how it works
In this guide, we show you how to create a Minecraft skin.
Create Minecraft skin online
You can create your own skins for Minecraft in the browser on the Nova Skins website.
- Open the skin editor in the browser. At the bottom left you will find the parts of your character. You can hide and show them with one click. Note that since Minecraft version 1.8, shells have been available for all parts of the body.
- At the bottom of the screen are some tools for coloring your skin.
- In the lower right corner you will find tools to rotate and enlarge the character.
- When you have finished your skin, you can either download it to your PC (Save) or implement it directly in the game (Apply).
- A clear alternative is the Skin Editor from Minecraftskin. However, you cannot edit the shells introduced in version 1.8 there (status: 20.09.2014).
