Description
Over 50 recipes to Craft, Dye, Mix and Tint paint to suit your every need including making your own improvised paint and hair dye.

Take any bucket of white paint, add colored hair dye to it and voila, colored paint. Simple as that and available for everyone right away.

Want to get a little more advanced? Find the "Color your World" skill magazine to learn all about mixing colors to create a near endless supply of paint.

Want green paint? Add Yellow and Blue dye together with white paint.
Don't have white paint? Add Yellow dye to blue paint.
Don't have Dye? Mix Yellow and Blue paint together
(A full listing of recipes is available in the discussions pane)

No more frustrating and fruitless loot runs looking for that one little drop of paint and coming home with the wrong colors. Now you can mix and match to create the colors you want and need all in one easily organized "Paint" tab in your crafting window.

Still struggling to find paint? Well thankfully Smartha Mewart has you covered with her latest "DIY Crafts" magazine out on stands today. In it you'll find a brand new recipe for "Improvised Paint". This simple home recipe lets you craft your own plain white paint that can be later dyed to any color you please. It's a good thing!

Not to be outdone, Sidal Vassoon has entered the fray and offered up their services for all your post-apocalyptic hair dye needs. Find their latest magazine to learn all the latest trends in home hair dyes and coloring.

Hello! I’m Kai reaching out on behalf of the Day’s End Roleplay server. We use your mod in our server and have loved it. We were hoping to make it part of our permanent mod pack.

This would include you extending your creative license to us, allowing our mod team to add/edit/use your mod to suit our server. As such we would not publish our edits to the workshop. We will include credit to you as the original creator of the mod, of course.

If this is agreeable to you or would like to discuss this further, please let us know. Thank you for all your effort.

Kai, Day’s End Mod Team

Been using this for a while and like it but really only for the hair dyes. Please consider splitting the two into separate mods in the future. :steamthumbsup:

Hello! :scBunnygirl:
I am the owner of a small community and would like your permission to place your mods in a modpack for my server. Naturally, i'll credit you as the original owner of your mods along with linking your mods to refer others to their workshop page. Thank you in advance! :scWitch:

@kucherokk You're going to need to be more specific with what's going on. I just downloaded "MorePaintAndPlaster41" (closest I could find to your name) and it works flawlessly with improvised paint.

What am I missing?

Thanks bro! But its conflicted with mod "More Paint and Plaster"

The recipe book "Sidal Vassoon guide to hair coloring" should be renamed to "Sidal Vassoon's Guide to Hair Coloring" to bring it in line with titled books.

@orc it appears that some of the files don't match, i know some how another user was able to make a plant growing mod that works with the Hydrocraft and think it has something to do with the files not matching i believe you would need to look into the Hydrocraft mod itself to figure out how to make your own mods compatible with it. if you can figure that out i'm pretty sure this MOD and all your others MODS will get a boost in subscribers because it will add more to servers that use Hydrocraft and it hard to find good MODS that work along side it. So if you can pull it off anyone who has Hydrocraft will also download your MODs.

@The_Wardog If you can tell me what is conflicting or causing issues, I can look into assembling a compatibility patch for it
