About this Mod

Logo. (it's the logo.)

A mod that adds a total of 73+ New and Unique Paintings, while also backporting future or april fools' Paintings.

These paintings are added in the total pool of paintings; with many of them varying in size, style and practicality. Some of these paintings were made originally for an Ad Astra Addon mod (which is still in the works... probably), however they are genuinely gorgeous and had to get them released as soon as possible.

A collection of some of the paintings.
