[1.12.2] Stitching other models on an item model

[BeardlessBrady]

What I am trying to do: I want to be able to stitch different texture onto an item texture sort of in lines with how Tinkers Construct does with its various types of tools, materials, addons etc. What would be the best method of doing this?

 

I tried looking into tinkers construct code but thats a huge rabbit hole and I wasn't even sure if I was following the right classes or not haha so I'm hoping someone can nudge me in the right direction here.

TiC is open source, you could go look.

 

That said, they're most likely using Custom Mesh Definitions and multiple sprite layers.

Right, I was attempting to look but there is a lot of code and its hard to find. Custom Mesh Definitions can put me on the right track, thanks.
