get the gimp to make the skins at wc3sear, use the wc3viewer to convert and view the skins and find yourself a good tutorial maybe at the skinning technique factory or whatever its called

Keep in mind if you're simply modding the skins of already existing models, it's very easy. As mentioned, use Warcraft 3 Viewer or something to save the files, and use quality image editing software (preferably along the lines of Photoshop) to edit them to your liking. Then just resave them as .blp using WC3 Image Extractor II. The rest is easy... just import the skin in WE and edit a unit or create a custom one using the custom BLP you imported.
