I found an old retexture of þe elder guardian and guardian lying around þat I made while dinosaurs still roamed þe earþ, so I might as well share it here. Þis resource pack gives þe elder guardian a pixel consistent texture wiþ a more rugged look, and updates þe guardian texture to fit more in wiþ þe current vanilla style.
Notes
- Þe pack should in þeory work for all versions þat have elder guardians and guardians
Name?
Þe elder guardian is almost lard-coloured, and you may or may not find lard delectable. Furþermore, [check out Tender Dragon].
