# ArtMap Plugin

<figure><img src="https://lilacmc.net/content/images/2021/11/image.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

ArtMap is a plugin which lets players do pixel-art in game! ArtMap offers a 32 X 32 canvas for everybody to paint on!

> **HOW DO I USE ARTMAP?**

To use ArtMap, you will first need to craft two main parts: **Easel** & **Canvas**. As shown in the photo above, to craft both materials, you will need materials such as sticks, leather, emeralds, empty maps, and more!

After you have crafted both parts, you can place the **Easel** anywhere you want. Right-click it with a Canvas to add it to the Easel. You can then right-click again to enter "drawing mode". Use your crouch key to leave the easel.

You need to use certain dyes and materials to paint on the canvas.

You can also access the GUI by typing **/artmap** in-game!\
\
This is what each material would look like in-game:

There are two special tools: Feather & Coal. Feather lightens up the color while coal darkens it. This is how you achieve the 4 different shades of each color.

> **HOW DO I SAVE AND SELL MY PAINTING?**

Hop on the easel where your painting is situated and type **/artmap save \[title]**! Doing so will give you an original copy of your painting. These paintings have a 'copyright' added to them so only you can produce copies of your painting and sell them!  \
\
To copy a painting, just put the painting along with an empty map in the crafting menu and it should give you two copies of it.

\
Happy painting, friends!\
