Congratulations for winning Mod of the Week!
No Christmas themed mod this year, but at least we got the Christmas lights from you ;)
Either way, your mod is great, especially the textures :D
Your mod was also promoted on our official subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/MCreator/) and Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/MCreatorModMaker/).
I appreaciate your criticism, but there's also reasons why we're using a cross model in the first place.
First is to keep the mod a bit more vanilla friendly and Second is the difficulty to make an actual "round" paper lantern model.
Though, a cubic shaped paper lantern could also work.
Definitely an idea worth lookig into :)
Nice mod, congratulations for the MOTW! :D
