Description from the author on Modrinth

This resourcepack changes the appearance of many of Minecraft's vanilla mobs! Specifically, for now it changes the appearance of the following mobs (although there are many more textures on the way):

  • Zombie
  • Skeleton
  • Creeper
  • Spider
  • Zombified Piglin
  • Cave Spider
  • Husk
  • Hoglin
  • Blaze
  • Guardian
  • Zombie Horse
  • Wither Skeleton

Requires EMF or ETF (also works with OptiFine).

The designer of the textures and models is AviArt.
