You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    to get the player’s appearance

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    A non existant model is returned instead

local players = game:GetService('Players')
local player = players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent)
local playerApperance = players:GetCharacterAppearanceAsync(player.UserId)

print(playerApperance)

Method is deprecated, use :GetCharacterAppearenceInfoAsync()
instead

Not sure what you’re looking for.
You only printed the Model itself, not its contents.

Did a few tests…

--ClientScript
local players = game:GetService('Players')
local player = players.LocalPlayer --for test

local playerApperance = players:GetCharacterAppearanceAsync(player.UserId)
for _, obj in ipairs(playerApperance:GetChildren()) do
	print(obj.Name, obj.ClassName)
end

--ClientScript
local players = game:GetService('Players')
local player = players.LocalPlayer --for test

local info = players:GetCharacterAppearanceInfoAsync(player.UserId)
for key, value in pairs(info) do
	print(key, value)
end

--SeverScript 
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local insertService = game:GetService("InsertService")

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
		local info = players:GetCharacterAppearanceInfoAsync(player.UserId)
		for _, asset in ipairs(info.assets) do
			local model = insertService:LoadAsset(asset.id)
			for _, obj in ipairs(model:GetChildren()) do
				print(obj.Name, obj.ClassName)
				obj.Parent = workspace
			end
		end
	end)
end)

GetCharacterAppearanceAsync(userId) needs to Allow HTTP Requests. (deprecated)
GetCharacterAppearanceInfoAsync and LoadAsset don’t require HTTP Requests.
