Hey im new to this forum and I've asked around but noone really ever helped me.
My modeling skills are decent and improving but im losing interest because i dont know how to skin so all my projects are just sittin around unfinished. If someone could please give me a link to a good skinning tutorial id be grateful. btw i use milkshape 3d.

It depends on what you mean, and what you're making. If by skinning, you mean the process of laying out UVs, then just google for Milkshape UV tutorial. If by skinning you mean making the texture in photoshop, then it really depends on if you're doing guns, models, or characters. Honestly, the best way to learn to do that stuff in photoshop is to observe similar objects in real life, and collect as much reference material as possible. It's not easy, and there aren't any magic bullet sort of solutions for making a good skin.

Really, the answer is play and practice
