After some working, I finally got the entity to render, and the lighting bug fixed, but something appears to be wrong with the texture. The texture that is showing up is not what is programmed in and I cant tell if its a code issue or mapping issue (Note: When imported into a modeling software the texture maps perfectly fine and the UV's match up perfectly). The entity looks like this ingame:

But the texture only vaguely has those colors. It appears to be extremely simplifying the texture. It could be an issue because my texture is very large, but large textures have worked fine in the past... Can anyone tell whats wrong?

 

Original Texture (1024px x 1024px):

EntityRenderer:

@Override
	public void doRender(final EntityBaneling entity, final double x, final double y, final double z, final float entityYaw, final float partialTicks) {
		super.doRender(entity, x, y, z, entityYaw, partialTicks);
		GlStateManager.pushMatrix();
		GlStateManager.scale(.8, .8, .8);

		try {
			GlStateManager.pushMatrix();
			GlStateManager.translate((float) x, (float) y + .3, (float) z);
			ClientUtil2.renderModelWithColor(ModelsCache.INSTANCE.getBakedModel(new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":models/entity/banelingnew.obj")), (new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":textures/entity/banelingnew2.png")), entity);
			GlStateManager.popMatrix();
			
		} catch (Exception e) {
			System.out.println("Error in loading Baneling model.");
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		GlStateManager.pushMatrix();
		GlStateManager.translate(x, y, z);
		//this.bindTexture(new ResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":textures/entity/banelingnew.png"));
		//this.bindEntityTexture(entity);
		GlStateManager.popMatrix();
	}

After some more tinkering, I used a different texture and it appears the renderer is only using a tiny fraction of the whole texture. Does anyone know how to change that?
