Cool, I use GIMP, so I'll try that. It's just I normally turn it off as I find it looks worse close up, but I'll try it. By the way, Morgsta, with the darkening tool, do you mean something like this?

Yes that's good but it's not really what I meant , The lines are very sharp so I went over them and added a bit of shading in places. I hope this helps.

@Morgsta Just curious if you were still going to do that adventurer skin for me? If you're too busy I understand.

I think Zernicalo made some explorer skins, I'm not sure whether they're what you're looking for, but yeah.
Would someone Sphaxify this skin please?

Hi, I'm looking for someone to sphaxify this skin for me, as I would like to use it for my BDcraft fig and also as the Steve in my BDcraft pack. Thanks

1) Use Photoshop, Gimp ou Paint.net softwares with antialiased tools (like line tool)
2) If you don't know how to or don't want to use a good software, continue to work with the one you like (even with no AA on tools) but resize the picture you are working on at 4x bigger (without resampling). Then draw and then resize back (with resampling) to its original size.
Just found the "Antialias" tool in gimp. This means I can draw with out it, then simply select the area to antialias, use the tool, et voila! (only bit of French I know XD) Antialiasing!

Antialiasibg is not blur...
I don't know which tool you found bit be careful.
My tip of resizing the texture 4x times bigger and resizing it to 4x times smaller can give better results

Yup, I know, this is what I meant:

Antialiasing via a filter can't be something that nice...
AA must be done by using vertex (in 3D) or vectors (in 2D). AA can't be done on bitmaps or it's more a "smoothness" filter than AA.
