Lil Red Bad, better known as BadBoyHalo's Christmas dress skin, is a Minecraft game skin made by hicaniplay based on fanart by 까만.[1] They picked it for inspiration as Pomme had shown Bad the artwork on stream,[2] "to convince Bad that he should have braided hair", which Bad in short order had denied. Since Pomme liked the artwork, and hicaniplay found it inspiring, they decided to make a skin based on it even though it was widely doubted that Bad would ever wear a dress skin.

However, after setting and reaching a Twitch subgoal, Bad did end up wearing the skin several times on the QSMP, notably for Pomme's birthday, showing it to Foolish, and during the QSMP Christmas event.

Artist Comments

On Twitter hicaniplay quoted the artwork by 까만 with a picture of their Minecraft skin, saying:

Art by 까만 that inspired the skin.
I decided to try 'black' braids again, against a holiday skin backdrop.

These are the smallest braids I can manage and be happy xP I just like the chunky style!

Inspired by quoted artwork[3]

The alt text on the image reads:

He has a question mark on his back because he's questioning how much time I spent on a skin that will never be worn lol /j

Thinking of that one chatter who kept requesting a skin change from qbbh

When he was already wearing the cutest skin he's ever worn

I'll never forget that chatter, I'll never forget your traitorous ways

[Ash on Twitter]

LIKE I'M SAYIN... HOW DARE THEY

Whole chat was screaming no and they were insistent... Like who hurt you???

Reportedly Bad tried to insist it was a robe and not a dress.[5]

Recursive Fanworks

Pomme used the skin as the base for some future skins she made for Bad to wear.[6][7]

The skin resulted in many fanworks being created. The following is a small list of example fanart.
