Steam Community :: A Color to Dye For (Paint)

Fox 1 May @ 10:54am

After Eight covers almost whole hat in dark color, this does slightly dark.

ShadowMan44 28 Aug, 2021 @ 10:55pm

This doesn't look like after eight personally. That one looks like a very dark brown while this looks like a slightly light black.

Valve.exe has stopped working.

This is just after eigjt

I actually like this more than "distinct lack of hue". Distinct lack in most cases is simply "too" black and stands out too much in my opinon. This color to dye for seems to be black while still allowing the true shape and design of the hat to show through.

The Banana King 5 Jan, 2016 @ 7:53am

I don't think this needs to be added. However, I would like it if they updated "A Distinct Lack of Hue" to better replicate this. I love the black paint they have in game, but on a lot of cosmetics, it looks flat and boring. This looks a lot better.

Figglebottom 8 Oct, 2014 @ 3:14pm

This is incompatible? HOW?????? THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDED!

marccost3 19 Jan, 2014 @ 3:52pm

Pardon the stupid question, but what are the RBG values for this paint? You have them listed for your other paints, but not this one.

ALI=3NS 10 Dec, 2013 @ 1:00am

Definetly.

LTS mr pibb 4 Nov, 2013 @ 4:34pm

TF2 needs new paints.

Daniel 13 Oct, 2013 @ 6:23pm

I love this.

hey 25 Sep, 2013 @ 4:58pm

DarkRay Then how do you explain his other paints?

Oil_Rope_Bombs 25 Sep, 2013 @ 11:45am

Great paint, shame valve marked it as incompatible. Much better than the awful distinctive lack of hue paint.

Not Your Sagittarius 14 Feb, 2013 @ 11:46am

It doesn't look full black or full white to me... in fact it looks like a perfect color! It's not fully black like that Distinctive Lack of Hue paint... :/

TheNoobishNinja 3 Feb, 2013 @ 6:20am

It matches Soldier's grenades. That means Valve is breaking their guidelines on the Soldier model!

Synyster_A7X 8 Nov, 2012 @ 12:06pm

A nice color and a creative name :l
Its a shame it is incompatible

Nicoleism 30 Oct, 2012 @ 12:34pm

@Below Incompatible because of Valve's FAQ of the Workshop for TF2 saying don't use full black, full white, etc.

Mr Pyro 28 Sep, 2012 @ 11:46pm

Why is this incompatible?

Pexzen 22 Sep, 2012 @ 9:19am

Really nice!

Simski ☕ 17 Sep, 2012 @ 12:23pm

God damn it Valve :(

Moro 13 Sep, 2012 @ 5:57pm

IMO, they should just replace the "distinctive lack of hue" paint with this, it's less saturated and, as such, fits the artstyle MUCH better.

DracoMeteor 13 Sep, 2012 @ 3:38pm

Nice

ＫＯＳ－ＭＯＳ 29 Aug, 2012 @ 5:46pm

I'm not sure I get it... it looks exactly like Aged Moustache Grey. Maybe my eyes aren't working.

BigBadBeetleBob 20 Aug, 2012 @ 12:06pm

A softer black paint... nice!

WiLSoN 1 Aug, 2012 @ 11:23pm

Truly hope they add this, i like it much better than lack of hue.

NiceAniMeta 25 Jun, 2012 @ 8:13pm

This is what the black paint should have been

Mulan 5 Jun, 2012 @ 6:42pm

I see what you did there "A color to 'Dye' for" perfect!

DustyKnee 17 May, 2012 @ 10:40am

thats actually really nice, way better than after eight

Karkasmolen 7 May, 2012 @ 10:06pm

I have an idea: have this replace black paint.

Sabess 24 Apr, 2012 @ 11:17pm

Looks very nice,It's After Eight but always in the shade(if you don't know what I mean,get after eight paint,paint something and go in the light.The result will be a dark green while in the shade it's a slightly lighter black).

Sirin 19 Apr, 2012 @ 5:52pm

Oh god. That color looks awesome on the Tyrolean.

sn0w 1 Apr, 2012 @ 4:25am

Very nice paint color.

ThisIsAfakeUsername 24 Mar, 2012 @ 4:45am

Looks great.

FOR THE CUBS 23 Mar, 2012 @ 11:44pm

You can't submit a color. This is a color. You did not model this color. This is a color.

*TK_.yikes 11 Mar, 2012 @ 8:37pm

this > after eight

pro gamer 9 Mar, 2012 @ 9:22am

Now that they released after eight this prolly won't be accepted :(

TheGothicKing 5 Mar, 2012 @ 11:05am

Looks better than the other black

Shybaka 3 Mar, 2012 @ 11:32am

is this the after eight paint?

🤣 3 Mar, 2012 @ 8:14am

I see no problem with adding extra colors :D But one picture is broken.

Anatolli’s Gabagool 29 Feb, 2012 @ 1:48am

how CAN I DOWNLOAD IT

LVDoomien 28 Feb, 2012 @ 9:32pm

when i first heard that new paints were added a lil while ago i was so hoping it was this but i was saddened 2 learn it was just some other dumb colors, they must add this!

BurritoJustice 27 Feb, 2012 @ 11:29pm

This is possibly the greatest paint I have ever seen. I'm painting all my hats this :D

KABLAAAHH 24 Feb, 2012 @ 11:13am

I really want this paint, I hope Valve didn't choose After Eight as an alternative to this.

Fireshock 24 Feb, 2012 @ 7:09am

Huh. I thought After Eight was this paint but I guess it's not. Too bad, this looks better.

Icy the River 23 Feb, 2012 @ 5:17pm

Thanks for including that pic of the Villains Veil, that's what I would use this on!

Lilgreenman 23 Feb, 2012 @ 4:22pm

Congrats?

Kiaayo 23 Feb, 2012 @ 4:11pm

How exactly does one put a paint idea onto the workshop?

ehkay47 23 Feb, 2012 @ 4:07pm

This looks better than the current black IMO. Must. Have. This.

[POISON] 22 Feb, 2012 @ 3:51am

good color i like it

Juken 20 Feb, 2012 @ 11:18am

Anyone who thinks this is the same black as the one currently ingame is an oblivious idiot.
