Bare Bones - Creeper Variants
Java resource pack listed for Minecraft 1.16–26.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on Modrinth








This resource pack adds 24 different creeper variations for different biomes (14 of which can spawn naturally). Each creeper is based off the colour and texture of the local flora in order to blend in better.
The creepers are designed to blend in with the default Bare Bones resource pack, and PrincParshia's Bare Bones - Better leaves resource pack. Credits to them for the original textures.
For a vanilla alternative, I recommend Modern Creepers.

Requires Entity Texture Features.
