Paintable Blocks
by Wenbebis
Paintable Blocks lets players paint vanilla wool, concrete and stone blocks into double-sided panels using a Paint Roller added by the mod for NeoForge 1.21.4.
What it does
The mod adds the Paint Roller, a tool that recolors vanilla colored blocks, and a set of double-sided blocks made from wool panels and concrete panels. A panel can be built with a crafting table from four wool or four concrete blocks of the same kind. Each double-sided block carries two different colors, one per face, and the roller can recolor a block that was already placed.
Wool panels cover twelve different planks, and concrete panels cover white concrete and the other concrete colors. Since the paneled blocks use tinted textures based on the actual block textures, they match their originals closely. Texture packs still apply to the original blocks.
The mod is a NeoForge build for 1.21.4 only. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The source code is published under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so the project is open source. It was created with the MCreator 2025.2 mod maker and was first published on 2026-09-06.
