In Minecraft, players have access to several primary dyes that allow them to create a variety of colors and shades. This feature is fantastic, as it enables the crafting of vibrant, dark, rich, and any other colored items that can beautifully enhance both outfits and interiors. However, if you’ve experimented with all possible combinations and mixed every color together, you might be in search of something fresh. We have great news for you! New colors have been introduced in Minecraft!
In the real world, paint boasts a remarkably extensive history. In earlier times, colors were utilized to signify levels of wealth and social status. Initially, dyes were derived from plants and other organic substances; however, in the 1850s, an individual named W. H. Perkin accidentally discovered the first synthetic dye. He was attempting to create quinine, but something went awry, resulting in a purple hue. This discovery laid the groundwork for all subsequent dyes, leading to a gradual increase in color variety, ultimately culminating in what we have today: an endless array of colors and shades.
In Minecraft Bedrock, dyes are primarily derived from plants, but similar to real life, they can be applied to nearly any item. You have the ability to change the appearance of standard terracotta blocks, beds, name tags, water from cauldrons, and even a cat. I meant the cat’s collar.
Dyed wool from sheep is another excellent method for obtaining dyes. Simply place white wool and dye in the crafting grid. Dyeing live sheep is easy if you can keep the animal still. Additionally, you can breed colored sheep to create new shades. For instance, combining yellow and red wool will yield orange.
Some players construct entire builds based on blocks of various colors. With the introduction of new hues, I hope they find even more opportunities and, of course, inspiration!
