Request: Butterflies and Dragonfly Blocks
Request Type: General Addition
Try to describe all workarounds and associated issues that make it necessary to add this block in your eyes.
Hello I have an addition that would compliment our already existing bees and flies blocks to enhance our natural spaces: Butterflies and Dragonflies!
I have a total of 5 textures (4 species of butterflies, 1 for dragonflies) along with their recommended utilization. I'll start with the simplest: Dragonflies
For butterflies it is a bit more complicated, in order to feature speciation of butterflies I have developed 4 textures based on climate and region and divided their ranges as shown in this map
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the very south of Westeros, covering the dry regions of Dorne, Southern Reach and Southern Stormlands are these orange butterflies based on the African Queen Monarch. I choose this color to emulate the orange butterflies on the Mullendore sigil.
The second butterfly colored golden and yellow, straddles the western coasts of Westeros in The Reach and Westerlands up until reaching the Neck where its range ends. This is inspired by the Clouded Yellow Butterfly
In the central parts of Westeros, covering the temperate lowlands, this generalist species covers the Northern Reach, Riverlands, Westerlands, Riverlands, Crownlands, Stormlands and Southern Vale are based on the White Cabbage Butterfly, a common pest for farmers.
And finally the final butterfly makes its habitat in the cold and damp regions of the Northern Riverlands, Vale, Crackclaw Point, and Southern Regions of The North is a pale blue butterfly inspired by the Common Blue Butterfly
The fourth butterfly colored crimson, straddles the eastern coasts and islands of Westeros from Eastern Dorne, The Stormlands and ending at the Northern Crownlands. They are loosely based on the Peacock Butterfly or Aglais Io
Thank you for taking the time to read my block request! Below are the textures for the additions:

Dragonflies would populate freshwater ecosystems such as streams, rivers, bogs and swamps. I based the dragonfly texture on the Four-spotted chaser
And here is the in-game result
