Need help editting Kirby's Skin Texture.

I want to take Ball Kirby and turn him into this guy from Kirby 64.

What do I do about the Horrendously small size of his Skin Texture?

Nothing. That's probably too detailed to fit on Kirby.

I would believe you if:

This.

and

This.

Didn't exist. (Technically, the second one doesn't exist now, but that is not the point).

So what do I do?

It's hard to tell from the screenshots, but I think that first one is an emerald texture, which means that the textures don't move and always face the screen. Although now that I think about it, that might actually work for a Miracle Matter texture. You could try that and see how the final result looks.

Thats the thing, I am new to editing emerald textures, I really have no idea how to go about it.

If I were to succeed in making a Miracle Matter texture, if I made Kirby spin around with the texture out, it wouldn't move at all?... Thats kind of a problem, as if I ever want to make a Miracle Matter PSA, he needs to spin around like he does in the vid.

Bumping because it was on the second page.

Well, I tested the textures, but they aren't centered on the model, the edge texture appears on one side, while the other is blank. Does anyone know what is causing this problem?

Note: I used Plasmakirby's guide on KC:MM to replace edge3 so the texture wouldn't swirl, does anyone know if I did anything wrong? I basically Paint Bucketed it in Photoshop with an emerald color, but not a solid emerald, like the tutorial shows.

I really don't know anything about emerald textures, so I can't help, sorry. But the way they work is that they have a pattern that always faces toward the screen regardless of how the character is positioned. As far as Miracle Matter goes, it might be the only way to get red dots on all parts of Kirby's body, as his normal textures are too small and stretch around his bottom half.
