What they say
16 lines
I tried having a paintball fight, but everyone wanted food and decorations instead.
Rain is my worst nightmare. It literally rinses out all my hard work!
I painted a mural on this wall just a moment ago. Shoulda bought a weather radio!
When the thunder rolls, and the lightning strikes... it really brings out the colors on the furniture.
Blink and you'll miss it. The brightest colors stand out when the lightning flashes.
Feel that draft coming through? It's wafting paint fumes all over the place.
This wind storm just blew all the fresh paint right off the wall!
I paint walls and furniture, not bones! It isn't Dia de Muertos!
What a dreary place... it sure could use a splash of color, huh?
- In Hardmode:
Once you enter hallowed land, you will see a rainbow in the sky. I can help you with painting that if you want.
- Before Hardmode, While the Party Girl lives in the world:
Check out the Party Girl. Now that's a girl who can paint the town red!
- Before Hardmode, While no Party Girl lives in the world:
I know the difference between turquoise and blue-green. But I won't tell you.
Not confirmed - Before Hardmode, While no Party Girl lives in the world:
I'm all out of titanium white, so don't even ask.
Not confirmed - Before Hardmode, While no Party Girl lives in the world:
Try swirly pink and purple, it works, I swear!
Not confirmed - Before Hardmode, While no Party Girl lives in the world:
No, no, no... There's TONS of different grays! Don't get me started...
Not confirmed - Before Hardmode, While no Party Girl lives in the world:
I hope it doesn't rain again until this paint dries. That would be a disaster!
