4 original bases · classic and slim
Minecraft suit skin bases
A suit is hard to draw well at 64×64 because so much of it is one dark colour. These four bases solve it the same way a tailor does: with contrast at the collar, a clear opening down the front and a jacket that sits on its own layer. Each one comes in classic and slim.
The 4 bases side by side
Measured from the files themselves: how much of the outer layer each design uses, how many distinct colours it has, and its main outfit colour.
| Base | Opens on | Overlay pixels | Colours | Outfit colour |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Charcoal suit | Classic | 801 | 41 | #3b3e46 |
| Three-piece tweed suit | Classic | 797 | 41 | #6a4c30 |
| Navy suit, open collar | Slim | 749 | 32 | #1d2847 |
| Black tuxedo | Classic | 624 | 35 | #1d1e24 |
How the suits are put together
On every suit here the jacket is drawn on the overlay and the shirt, tie and trousers on the base, so hiding the overlay in the editor shows the outfit with the jacket off. The jacket opens at the front, so a column of shirt and tie runs down the middle; that light strip is what makes a dark suit readable from a distance.
The four differ in their details. The charcoal suit lets the white shirt cuffs show at the wrists. The tweed suit uses a woven two-brown pattern and adds a buttoned waistcoat with a gold watch chain. The navy suit drops the tie for an open collar and ends the trousers at the ankle. The tuxedo picks out its lapels and a stripe down each trouser leg in a lighter satin grey.
Tailoring a suit base
Change the tie first. It's the smallest area with the biggest effect on the character, and it costs a dozen pixels. Then decide on the cloth: Fill the jacket and trousers together so they stay a matching pair, or only the trousers for a blazer-and-chinos look.
Dark suits lose their folds in game lighting. If yours looks flat after recolouring, use Lighten once on the front faces of the jacket and Darken once on the right side and back; that restores the library's light direction.
For accessories, the overlay head is still free on the tuxedo and has only hair on the others, so glasses, a hat or an earpiece go there without touching the face.
Every base here is original artwork, free for any use, selling included, with no credit needed. The full terms are on the skin bases page.
