Is the Minecraft skin editor free?

Yes. The editor is completely free, runs in your browser and requires no download, installation or account.

How do I use my edited skin in Minecraft?

Download your skin as a PNG file and upload it in the Minecraft launcher or in your profile on minecraft.net. The editor produces standard 64×64 skins for Minecraft: Java Edition.

Does the editor support Alex (slim) and Steve (classic) models?

Yes - you can switch between the classic and the slim model at any time; painting works the same on both.

Can I edit an existing skin?

Yes. Upload any 64×64 skin PNG, load a skin from the laby.net library, or combine body parts from several skins with mix & match.

Will I lose my work when I close the page?

No. Your skin - including all layers - is continuously saved into the page URL. Bookmark or share the link to continue exactly where you left off.

Does the skin editor work on my phone?

Yes. There is a touch-optimized app layout for phones and tablets: one finger paints, two fingers rotate and zoom.

Skin Editor

Paint directly on a 3D Minecraft skin - pixel by pixel, right in your browser.

The laby.net Skin Studio is a full Minecraft skin editor that runs right in your browser. Paint pixel by pixel on a live 3D model, work with layers like in a real graphics app, recolor whole skins with filters and export a ready-to-use 64×64 PNG - free, with no download and no account.

Everything you need to design Minecraft skins

Paint in 3D and 2D

Draw directly on the rotating 3D model or switch to the flat 2D texture view - both stay perfectly in sync, down to the hovered pixel.

Layers like a graphics app

The base skin stays protected while your edits live on layers: reorder, hide, rename, set opacity and blend modes - everything is kept in the share link.

Filters & color tools

Recolor the whole skin in seconds: grayscale, colorize, brightness, contrast, saturation, hue shift, posterize and outline - plus gradients with dithering.

Powerful drawing tools

Brush sizes and shapes, a fill bucket with smart modes, auto-tone shading, clone stamp, selections with lasso and magic wand, and a symmetry mode that mirrors your strokes.

Mix & match any skin

Load any skin from the laby.net library and swap single body parts into your own - the head from one skin, the jacket from another.

Save & share instantly

Your work is stored in the page link while you paint. Download the finished 64×64 PNG for Minecraft: Java Edition or share the link and continue anywhere.

1. Start with a skin
