How to use a skin base

A base is a simple, clean skin with a face, hair and basic clothes. It saves you the hardest part, getting the proportions and the face right, so you can spend your time on the details that make the character yours.

Press “Edit” to open a base in the skin editor. Recolor the clothes with the fill tool, change the hair, add a hat or a jacket on the outer layer, and download the finished PNG. Your previous work in the editor is not lost: press Undo to get it back.

The blank skins and the color-coded templates are for drawing from scratch. In the templates every body part has its own color and the outer layer is lighter, so you can see at a glance which pixels belong where. The skin template guide explains the layout in detail.

Questions and answers

Can I use these bases for free?

Yes. All bases on this page were drawn for this site, and you can use them and the skins you make from them in the game, on servers and in videos.

What is the difference between classic and slim?

Classic skins have arms 4 pixels wide, like Steve. Slim skins have arms 3 pixels wide, like Alex. Pick the same model in the game when you upload the skin.

How do I put a base on my character?

Download the PNG and upload it in the Minecraft Launcher or in the Dressing Room. Our guide on how to change your skin shows every step.

Can I change a base on my phone?

Yes. The editor works in the browser on phones and tablets: tap to paint and drag to rotate the model.
