# minecraft-skins

A curated, high-quality dataset of Minecraft character skins with descriptive captions and tags for training generative AI diffusion models (such as Stable Diffusion 1.5, SDXL, and FLUX LoRAs).

## Dataset Summary

- **Total Skins:** 101
- **Image Resolution:** 64x64 RGBA (standard Minecraft 1.8+ dual-layer UV layout)
- **Model Variants:** Classic (4px arms) and Slim (3px arms)
- **Metadata Fields:** `image`, `username`, `uuid`, `caption`, `tags`, `model`, `quality`

## Quick Start / Usage

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("honvert/minecraft-skins", split="train")

# Access first sample
sample = dataset[0]
image = sample["image"]       # PIL.Image (64x64 RGBA)
caption = sample["caption"]   # Text prompt
tags = sample["tags"]         # List of keywords

print(f"Skin: {sample['username']} | Caption: {caption}")
image.save("sample_skin.png")
```
