Overview

If you've never created any Body Shop content before, you should start with clothing. There are two main sets of tutorials that will help you begin creating clothing. If you are using the GIMP, a free graphics editor, you should use the Gimp tutorials. If you are using Photoshop or other higher-end graphics editors, you should be able to follow Faylen's series of skinning tutorials.

Whenever you first do a tutorial, you should do the exact same project they show you, exactly as they tell you to do it. This way you can be sure you're doing your first project correctly. When you finish each tutorial, experiment with the techniques you have learned, trying something similar, a project of your own, before moving on to the next tutorial.


What you will need


Beginner's Tutorials

Faylen's Skinning Tutorials

If you are using Photoshop or another graphics editor, you can probably follow these tutorials fairly well to figure out how to make new clothing recolours. If you are confused about what tool to use if you are using a different program, try your editor's help file.

Vashti's Gimp Tutorials

Vashti's tutorials are great for beginners, and give a lot of information on using the GIMP.

Other Basic Tutorials

These tutorials are also beginners, designed to introduce them to creating clothing.

  • How to Create Infant Hair and Clothing - Tutorial by cdboogie - Explains how to create hair and clothing for infants. Infant hair and clothing are applied to the skin tone, not to the hair or clothing meshes normally used for the older ages. I placed this link here for people who will look under clothing for tutorials on how to create infant clothing.

Toolbox Tutorials

These tutorials relate to clothing, but are specific techniques, tools, and tips helpful to beginners and more experienced skinners alike, for trying something specific.
