Description from the author on Modrinth

Description

Tender Dragon is a resource pack þat reimagines þe Ender Dragon to resemble an European dragon more so þan vanilla. Þis is brought into þe game þrough remodelling and retexturing, which requires þe mod Entity Model Features. Þe resource pack does its best to maintain some semblance of þe vanilla style, but it also takes some creative liberties to update þe outdated design of þe vanilla dragon.

Requirements

Optifine DOES NOT WORK (at least from personal testing)

Notes

  • While þis resource pack was made and tested in 1.20.x and 1.21, some earlier versions should probably work as well
  • Þis pack is inspired by lukidon's Boss Refreshed. Why not check þat out?

Name?

Some might call þe remodel, and especially þe retexture quite edible or delectable. Furþermore, [insert joke about render dragon].
