Guys Im making a new skin, I still trying to finish it and put some more things into it. And I need some suggestions about it. Is it ok if it's lighter or more darker? Because I don't know how to do shadings if the colors on the skin was mixed. So please write your suggestions below thanks.

It's perfect the way it is, but you need to put some shading onto it so it doesn't look like a flat cardboard cuttout, but rather a 3D object that has form and depth to it by giving it light and shadows.

That's my problem with this, on my old player skins, I have no any trouble on shadings even It sucks, but these things with multi-color stuff, I'm confused about how do I do the shadings. The image:

Lighter in the middle, darker at the sides.

Just use the colours you have but first put them in the middle. Then add the same colours darker bit by bit on the edges.

I thought I've told you what's wrong with the skin, first add the basic color with shadings. ( The middle will be the brightest ). Then, followed with the other colors..

If you still don't get it, then I'll edit it by myself and send it to ya.

I'll add shadings first, and then the camo. But how can- Oh wait, I got it! shadings, and use the same color but with the different contrast for the camo, lighter and darker.

Thank you for repeating what everyone just said. Derp.

You could try to use an advanced image editing program like photoshop or gimp.
So you can do the shading using an overlying layer with transparency.
Much better than doing it pixel by pixel
