Telescope 3D Model

Regardless of my opinion on the inclusion of a telescope, I would still like to give my suggestions on how to make it better.

When I first saw the telescope it was a little uncanny as the texture wasn't up to Minecraft's usual standers (sorry).

After thinking more on it I realized why; it was 1. A circle and 2. 2D. When you zoom in the Hud is a a black screen with the

cut out of a circle. This should be made into a square! I understand some of the exceptions made with ender pearl etc..

But I think this shouldn't be an exception. Also this should be a 3D model like the trident! i think this would make it stand

out more as a tool and would make everything just a bit better.

In Summary: 3D model and Square Zoom-In

    I totally agree. when they zoomed in on the village with the telescope, I just hated the black oval cut-out. I think the 3D model as it's being held is cool too. 

    The telescope zoom should just be like an ordinary Optifine zoom except a hint of blurred magnification around the edges and some vignette action. And i think it should be either square, or a more pixelated circle. The pixels being so small doesn't match at all. 

    If there is going to be a 3D model for it, the shape of the view should be the same shape as it is on the model.
