texture tut?

Can anyone either explain to me how to make a skin texture or any tutorials on how to make textures. thanks!

What 2D graphic program are you using?

sorry never mind my first question… i am very new and i have a face model but now i need to apply the skin to it. I have been looking around and found out that i can take a picture of the actual skin and apply it, what i need to know is how to apply it.

I will find a tutorial for you and post a link in this post

This is a link to Spin´s tutorial of modeling and texturing a soda can, that is a start for you. There is about texturing
