It's a WIDELY used and known term for the person that applies textures to a model.

Umm... so? Because it's widely used to refer to a type of person... does that mean it's not slang? Not really. The argument here lies in the use of formal and informal English, and since we're all online communicating in a way that is otherwise informal just about all of the time, "skin" is acceptable. People know what you're talking about because, as you said, it's a widely used term.

But you will likely not see a "skinner" in the credits in a video game, if you know what I mean.

Quote:

I would argue that it was the original term for the process, and someone just decided that "texture artist" sounded better than "skinner".

Ok, now prove it please.
