Carlie's Mannequins
by RedCarlie
Carlie's Mannequins lets players craft mannequins that display a Minecraft player skin, with poses, a rotating preview and a notebook menu for editing them.
What it does
Crafted mannequins take on the skin of a Minecraft player and can be posed from a collection of unique poses. The notebook GUI handles customisation, and a live, rotatable preview shows the result while it is edited. Steve, Alex and slim player models are all supported, so any of them can be shown.
Players can equip mannequins with armor, weapons and capes, including modded armor and weapons, and nameplates and pedestals can be shown or hidden as needed. Installation needs Forge only. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Its files target 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 1.0.0 for 1.20.6 as the latest release, published on 2026-08-08.

Trim Preview is also for Forge and the same versions, but is client-side only and licensed under All rights reserved. TransparentArmors is Forge-only, with the client or server optional, and is licensed under All rights reserved. Carlie's Mannequins needs both sides installed and is covered by the MIT License.
