# Draw Minecraft Skin
This is a simple weekend project to help kids create their own minecraft skins.
Use this tool to generate the template, print it out and draw the character on
it. Then take a photo of the drawing and feed it to the program. You'll get the
skin file that you can import into Minecraft.
## Installation
Clone the repo and then run:
```
$ make
$ ve/bin/activate
```
After this you should be able to run `drawmcskin` program:
```
$ drawmcskin --help
Draw Minecraft Skin!
usage: drawmcskin [-h] {template,scan} ...
Tool to convert a drawing to a Minecraft skin.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
action:
{template,scan}
template Generate a skin template
scan Scan image
```
## Usage
First, you need to generate and print the template:
```
$ drawmcskin template template.png
```
Print the resulting template.png, paint it and take a photo (or scan it). Make
sure all markers are clearly visible on the image. Once you have the image,
run:
```
$ drawmcskin scan template.png skin.png
```
The output file - `skin.png` is a minecraft skin you can upload to Minecraft.
Enjoy!
