I want to make multiple blocks that are kind of 3d, like a want to make my custom mob drop a custom mob head of itself but i don't know how to. I only know how to make full blocks with the same texture on each side. Could someone tell me how i would be able to make a custom mob head? like one that would be from the twilight forest mod.

That'd require a custom block model.

you can use this, model.json

{
    "elements": [
        {
            "from": [4, 0, 4],
            "to": [12, 8, 12],
            "color": 2,
            "faces": {
                "north": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"},
                "east": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"},
                "south": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"},
                "west": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"},
                "up": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"},
                "down": {"uv": [0, 0, 8, 8], "texture": "#missing"}
            }
        }
