Paintbrushes are used to customize certain building pieces as well as the inside of the default Player Home.
They are not consumable, so a single Paintbrush can be used repeatedly to paint an entire structure.
Requirements[]
Crafting Paintbrushes first requires the Paint Station Blueprint, which can be purchased from Roman for 10,000.
Uses[]
How to Use Paintbrushes[]
- Holding a Paintbrush, walk up to the object you want to paint. A red 'tether' will snap to the object, similar to using the Hammer or Item Shifter. Pressing E will paint the item.
- Each Paintbrush has multiple design options. The current design or pattern can be seen in the small circle that appears when using the paintbrush. These can be cycled through by pressing R. See individual brush pages (linked below) for full pattern examples.
- To paint the same item a different pattern, just paint over the existing one.
Objects that can be painted by Paintbrushes include:
- Building materials such as wood and plaster construction pieces. (Furniture Brushes are required for glass walls and crystal furniture.)
- The walls and floor inside the Player Home
In order to paint the inside of the house, use the paintbrushes on the two frames on either side of the door. One affects the floor, the other the walls. - Blank Paintings and Blank Carpets
- Multi-plant Farm Plots (3x1, 2x4, 4x4, 8x8).
Removing Paint[]
- Unlike with Furniture Brushes, a Sponge is not required to remove paint from crafted building materials. While holding any paintbrush, press R to cycle through the options. The last one is a 'default' brush that can be used to clear paint from building pieces. It can also be used on the house frames.
Museum Collections[]
Certain paintbrushes are required to complete collections in the Museum:
- Paintbrush Collection 1 - Galaxy, Leaves, Honey, Stone, and Wood.
- Paintbrush Collection 2 - Pastel, Rainbow, Colours, Shingles Roof, and Colourful Shingles.
