I wanted to try out the Bear Grylls mod, with one caveat: I must wear a Cookie Monster skin at all times. It's the mod that allows you to eat EVERYTHING, after all.

When I browsed web sites for Cookie Monster skins though, they all seemed a little... off somehow. Off as in not textured well enough, and with eyes that were more of the "escaped outpatient" type than the "lovable Derpy Hooves" type. So I went "Heck with it" and threw together my own skin for my own amusement. Minecraft is serious business for me, so I sought a seriously accurate blue fur suit for myself. XP

Getting the eyes to look right was the hardest part. Believe it or not, I fussed with them a lot, though in the end I think I succeeded within Minecraft's constraints. I also think this might have come out a little better if Minecraft allowed for separate textures for either arm and leg. I like how his back texture came out though since it looks a little baggy around the neck and body like the real deal.

It looks like you just copyed and pasted something onto the skin

Yeah, there's a good reason for that. It's because that's what I basically did. When I tried to create an original texture within the game's resolution restraints, none of them ended up looking any good. A solid blue skin is so bland it hurts and all other patterns I tried were just distracting with their repetition, so I finally just found a stock texture, scribbled with it a bit, cut the skin shape out of that whole cloth, and gave it eyes and a mouth. It definitely came out better than all those solid blue skins I've seen, at least.

In retrospect, Cookie Monster is such a simple creature, I'm not sure any such skin is the best way to showcase one's artistic skills. In fact, I might recommend that you ignore this entirely and check out the Taizo Hori skin I made instead. He's the skin I use all the time; I only revert to Cookie Monster for personal amusement, and I posted it for the sake of the three or four people who might also find amusement in it.
