I'm thinking of making an entity simply called a "mimic" that copies the appearance of any player that is in the world, it will attack when the player gets too close. It's a good concept but how do I go about doing this though? any help would be appreciated
You would probably need to custom code it, because there isn't any way to access the player skin in vanilla mcreator unless someone makes a plugin that lets you access it and allows you to render it on the "mimic"
Oh wait this plugin might work

I just looked at its github source code and i can see a procedure named "texture_from_entity.java.ftl" that seems to be taking the texture resource location of the entity and it handles the rendering part without doing custom code
