Zombie Rendog || Filling in the Blanks Minecraft Skin

I thought it was weird that Rendog (and Etho, but his case is a no-brainer) didn't receive a zombie skin for Wild Life on NameMC, when everyone else did, even if they went unused. So, of course, I went ahead and tried my hand at righting this slight injustice.

I took specific inspiration from the zombie skins that had tears and scrunches in the clothes, like Mumbo, Skizz, and BigB's. I also took some inspiration from Martyn's to make it so his and Ren's match a bit. I also took inspiration for the tears from Ren's various tattered/marooned skins from HC Season 7.

I tried my best to match the way the moss and dirt patches were shaded, shaped, and distributed, but I allowed myself to do some of it in my way/style. I made sure to achieve a good balance with the decay clutter, to make sure it didn't just become visual noise; each part of rot being deliberately placed with purpose and weight (like how the right shirt sleeve has more rips than the left). Still, I tried making it fit in with the other zombie skins as much as possible.

However, in order to have more fun designing this, and to have it be a good skin rather than a boringly safe one, I did allow myself to take some slight creative liberties; by slightly personalizing the specific decay details to better suit Ren (like editing the glasses, watch, and suspenders), and paying more attention to design on the legs and back (which the official skins did sparsely).

But anyways, I hope you like this skin that filled in the blanks; I'm hoping it proves useful for those who need an undead Rendog skin for some project (Also, go out try convincing others that this is an official skin if you can, as I just think that'd be funny, lol).

Also, I may or may not make a zombie skin for Etho, but currently, I'd be more interested in someone else taking a crack at that. Plus between the two, Ren was really the one I wanted and felt it was more important to make a skin for.

Okay I have to admit something, the original release of this skin was a bit rushed, and I probably should've sat with it an extra day or two before posting it. As a while after releasing it, I felt a bit unsatisfied with my work, and so planned to go back to it to help make it feel/look better.

The main thing done was lightly de-saturating the red seen throughout (mainly in the shirt), as the way it was made the skin look far too bright/saturated compared to the other zombie skins, even Martyn's. I imagine the zombie skin creator (Danny), probably would've done this in some form if he realistically made a zombie rendog skin.

Second, I added some more moss and dirt splotches, particularly on the left leg, alongside making some pre-existing ones slightly bigger/more spread. I thought it looked nice and made sense to have more.

And third, I made the eyes lighter, to help further give them more of that glossy zombie eyed look some of the other official zombie skins have.

Thanks to AmericanVikingGirl for giving feedback, helping with this update. I hope all these changes help make this an improvement, and look even more official. If for some reason you'd still like to download the old version, it's available in the description. I really need to make sure I don't rush my skins in the future, so I'll try to hold myself to that.
