shiiK: You've posted a lot of these recolours recently, and I've told you to check the rules and ask me if there's anything you don't understand. CloudWolf wrote a post explaining the core of the originality rule, read it. If you still don't understand what you're doing wrong, I don't know how to help you.

I will reject this skin as well, and if I see another recolour, I'll be giving you an infraction.

I can't tell how much of this is freehanded, and how much is recolored. Note, that you will need at least 75% freehand for approval (unless it looks really good and is really useful, which this isn't). Besides, it also seems to lack lots of shading and a few highlights.

I think that all is Recolor.

You asked this in the recent 'recolored' footman skin

 

[CloudWolf]

and how i do freehand?

Free-hand is basically the method of drawing your skin from scratch in Photoshop or any another image editor

Re-colouring is when you just take an existing skin, and use filters to make it look like a different colour. Much like the skin you have uploaded. THW unfortunately doesn't accept such skins

In order to be accepted, your skin needs to be at least 75% your own free-hand work. For example, see one of my skins below:

You'll notice lots of the areas are custom made, however, the face is a simple re-colour. However, this is ok as the other 75% is my own free-hand work As a better example of the sort of quality you want to work towards as your first skin, heres a picture of my first ever accepted skin:

If your new to skinning and want to get involved, I can totally recommend Mr. Goblin's Texturing Tutorial which will show you step by step how to make skins from scratch Don't expect your first skin to be perfect first time, I've had my fair share of skins rejected while I was learning

Hope this helps! and welcome to THW Just let me know if you have any questions about skinning and I'll try my best to answer!
