As spotted by PCGamesN, the modder has released an add-on forMinecraftcalled “Tinted” that not only adds eight new colors, but also implements a paintbrush tool that allows players to color items without having to “enter a crafting table.” The new shades include coral, beige, olive, turquoise, amber, bubblegum, bordeaux, and ender. It’s also compatible with a number of other mods, including “Quark” and “Waystones.” The creator has also said they may implement additional colors in the future if there is enough demand for them.
