Description from original post (created 2012-07-31 07:41):
I originally uploaded an image of this skin to the Minecraft subreddit to what I, as an aspiring artist, consider to be critical acclaim. The post received over 650 upvotes and so many people got to see my work that I wanted to give back to the community for their overwhelming support and give them this skin. I am the original creator of this skin and if any copies or similar skins get uploaded, this IS the original.
Please, if you're going to use this skin, ask permission first.
Otherwise, enjoy.
