Click on ‘Choose New Skin’ (tab located under the ‘Custom’ heading on the right side of the screen) for the empty skin icon.
Choosing the Skin from Gallery
You will now have to locate the image that you just saved to your phone’s internal memory. If you are in the gallery, you can directly find the image in the ‘Downloads’ album. The image that you just downloaded looks quite weird (more like a torn paper doll).
Once you have selected the image, the game will prompt you with an option to select a model for your skin. Should you find both the models to be the same, you can go with the one on the right.
Press on the ‘Confirm’ button to finalize the skin for your character. Read Next, Devil May Cry 6.
