## Features

### 🎨 Color Block
A block with **6 independently color-able faces** — perfect for custom building accents, pixel art, and signage.

- Right-click with an empty hand to open the **color picker GUI**
- Interact with the **3D preview**: drag to rotate, click a face to select it
- Adjust colors via **HSL sliders**, **HEX input**, or **image color picking** (paste an image path!)
- Apply colors per-face or all at once
- Sneak + right-click while holding the block to edit its colors before placing
- Colors are preserved when mined or picked with middle-click

### 🖌️ Color Brush
A tool for picking and applying colors directly in the world.

- **Sneak + right-click** to open the color picker GUI
- **Right-click** a Color Block face to **pick up** its color
- **Right-click** again with a color stored to **paint** the face (consumes durability)
- **Right-click on air** with a color stored to **clear** it
- Glows (enchantment glint) when holding a color

### 🧱 Solid Color Blocks
**64 separate block variants** (16 dye colors × 4 brightness levels: dark/medium/light/bright) for maximum mod compatibility.

- **Fully compatible** with Copycats+, Create's Copycat Block, and all block-modeling mods
- Uses standard block tint-index rendering — **no block entity overhead**
- Right-click with any **vanilla dye** to change color
- **Sneak + right-click** with empty hand to cycle brightness
- Use the **Color Brush** to pick and apply any color
- Crafted from Color Blocks: 4 Color Blocks → 4 White Bright Solid Blocks

### 🖼️ Color Picker GUI
A feature-packed color picker accessible from both the Color Block and the Color Brush:

- **3D block preview** — drag to rotate and inspect every face
- **HSL sliders** for intuitive color tuning
- **HEX input** for precise color values
- **Image color picking** — paste a file path to load an image, then click to pick colors
- **Enlarge mode** — click "zoom" to zoom the image 4× for precise pixel picking, auto-restores after picking

No other mod dependencies! Works standalone or alongside any other mod.

## Recommended Complementary Mods

- **Copycats+** — use Solid Color Blocks as copycat materials
