hehe yeah it is a bit blocky, but hey, it's minecraft!
i never really liked persian either, (or almost all of gen 1 for that matter)
kinda hope to get started on later gens soon
i might try pinsir too
i can't see the image you're trying to show D:
but i think i get what you're trying to say here, that was actually what i did on my first attemp, but it didn't work well with how i planned the texture and all
but i have just edited the position of the jewel and head slightly
