First off, you're gonna need Photoshop (duh), but also grab the VTFEdit program to convert your designs into a format CS:GO understands. Start by brainstorming your design, then sketch it out on Photoshop. CS:GO skins thrive on creativity, so let your imagination run wild! Keep in mind the weapon's shape and how players view it in-game. After you've got your design down, use VTFEdit to convert the PSD file into a VTF file. There’s a bunch of tutorials online that can guide you through the process if you hit a snag.

Honestly, just start simple. Slap some memes on a gun and see how it looks. You can get more complex as you learn.

Not gonna lie, making skins is a lot of trial and error if you’re a beginner. Made one that I thought was epic, looked like a toddler's art project in the game. Use templates and study popular skins for inspiration!
