Stony Peaks Golem Skin

This skin was made for the 2022 dependent skin contest. This skin is a dead human brought back to life using the stone of the Stony Peaks biome. It is very strong, but is also one of the only peaceful undead creatures (other than zombie piglins). Precious metals have formed around the feet and hands to the golem, to protect it's hands when punching stone and to protect the feet from other dangers. The normal skin is the stone variant, with diamond feet and hands. The hat/jacket layer is the diorite variant, with gold feet/hands. You can see the purple light from the enchanted heart crystal that is the life force of the golem. If it is removed, the golem will crumble back into a skeleton and rock. The creature is thought to have been created by an exiled ancient builder, who turned to necromancy. The necromancer tried to make a weapon, but used the wrong heart crystal and instead made a gentle giant.




Note: I did not use the Noise Mode for this skin. Each pixel was hand-painted onto the skin. This took me about 2 hours to make, so it would be greatly appreciated if you could heart/diamond.
