Frequently asked questions

How do I craft a Palette?
Craft a Palette using the mod's shaped crafting recipes; it is one of the ten registered items and is required to paint on canvases.
What do I need to start painting?
Place a Canvas on an Easel, then use a Palette to apply paint to the canvas.
How do I craft a Canvas?
Canvas is made through the mod's crafting_shaped or crafting_tagless_shaped recipes, then placed on an Easel to paint.
How do I craft an Easel?
Easels are crafted via the mod's shaped recipes and are used to hold Canvas, Glass Canvas, and the other canvas variants while painting.
What is the difference between Canvas and Glass Canvas?
Both are painted on an Easel, but Glass Canvas is a separate registered block that renders the painting with transparency.
What are the Large, Long, and Tall canvas variants for?
Large Canvas, Long Canvas, and Tall Canvas are separate registered blocks that provide different painting dimensions, each also available in a Glass Canvas version.
How do I copy a painting?
Paintings can be copied by using a Palette with a painted canvas; the mod supports duplicating the artwork onto another canvas.
Where do I paint — on the item or the block?
Painting happens on the placed canvas block mounted on an Easel, using the Palette as the tool.
Can I paint on a canvas without an Easel?
No; the Easel is the block that holds the canvas while you paint, so place the Easel first and mount the canvas on it.
What recipes does the mod add?
The mod adds ten crafting_tagless_shaped recipes and four crafting_shaped recipes covering the Canvas, Easel, Palette, and canvas variants.
How do I get a Glass Canvas?
Craft a Glass Canvas using the mod's shaped recipes; it is a distinct registered block from the regular Canvas.
What items and blocks does the mod register?
It registers ten entries: Canvas, Easel, Glass Canvas, Large Canvas, Large Glass Canvas, Long Canvas, Long Glass Canvas, Palette, Tall Canvas, and Tall Glass Canvas.
