Statues Classic
by Talmori
Statues Classic lets players build posable statues from most blocks, then dress them in armour, capes and skins.
What it does
Stacking two identical blocks and striking them with the Statue Hammer creates a statue that copies the look of its block, and a statue made from a light-emitting block keeps that glow. Statues can be posed through a UI where a username is entered, and a paper statue display nametag or a leather cape can be applied with a click. Items such as armour pieces can be worn by a statue, and banners fill the head slot.
The mod is a re-creation of the earlier Statues mod by asie. It runs on Fabric and needs Fabric API, Fabric Language Kotlin and MarderLib. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files cover 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.3 and 1.19.4, and the latest file is statuesclassic-1.19.4-1.0.6 for 1.19.4, released 2023-03-18. The code is released under the GNU General Public License v2.0 only and is open source.

Skins, capes and ears
A statue can be coloured to match a player's skin, given a cape, and show 3D skin layers, ears and tails.
Light and nametags
Glowstone dust makes a statue emit light, gunpowder turns that off, and a paper statue display nametag labels it.
