Crafting All Canvas Types and the Easel

Recipe Types

The mod uses two recipe types: xercapaint:crafting_shaped and xercapaint:crafting_tagless_shaped. Both are shaped recipes placed in a normal crafting grid. The tagless variant ignores item tags, so it accepts the specific ingredients listed rather than any item in a tag.

What to Craft First

Start with a Palette, since nothing can be painted without it. Then craft a Canvas. If you want to display it upright, craft an Easel as well. From there, branch into the size you need: Large Canvas, Tall Canvas, or Long Canvas. If you prefer the glass look, craft the matching Glass Canvas, Large Glass Canvas, Tall Glass Canvas, or Long Glass Canvas instead.

Progression Logic

1. Palette — required for all painting.

2. Easel — optional display block.

3. Canvas or Glass Canvas — your base surface.

4. Larger variants — when you need more area.

Each canvas type is its own registered block, so a recipe for one size does not produce another. Craft the exact variant you intend to paint on, and keep the Palette in your hotbar throughout.
