2. can anyone tell me how to apply texture?

I'm keeping an eye on this post.

As for tutorials, here is one for blender (free software).

However, I don't know how much it will help you.

By the way, I have a question myself. Does anyone know how to make a blender object to be usable by galciv2? I've been a bit too busy to figure this out for myself.

it doesnt really help me right now because i'm using 3ds max for my models.
Another great free 3D editor is Gmax. it's the older version 3ds max.

all you have to do is export it as a .X file.

what do you mean by import? import it where?

And when you are reffering to a model, it's called a texture (texturing) not a skin (skinning). Skins are for UIs. :)
