You can use any paint program to create skins
all the skin is , is a 2d picture wrapped onto a 3d object

You have to setup the UVW coordinates of the model in the 3d program where it was made.....this must be done before you can make the skin. The ways of doing this are different, depending on the 3d software you are using

What 3d program are you using?

copying and pasting what? and in what program?
usually it is Ctrl C to copy and Ctrl V to paste

what I meant by needing the model was that you need the file from the 3D program eg.( .max file if it was made in 3D Max) , then you can set up the UVW co-ords.

though if it has already been skinned before you dont need to setup the co-ords again.

I dont really know what can be done with Upaint as I only used it once (and hated it).
To do it in Photoshop you would need the UVW co-ords or the original texture.
