  • Save your money and buy a notebook and a pen...

    Promises a lot but delivers very little in a user interface that is unfriendly and clunky. I had high hopes for this app but was disappointed. The basic premise for the app is excellent, but it is so clunky its not worth it. I want my money back...
  • Handier than expected.

    I've kept track of my paint recipes with pen and paper for years and it's always worked just fine. I was sceptical of this app but decided on giving it a try: I was pointed to it by a fellow Golden Demon winner after all and I consider he knows what he's talking about. It includes an excellent color scheme selection tool that helps you pick and visualize your color selection. It allows you to scroll through a number of different color theory options in the process too. It also helps you keep track of what paint you need to buy on your next trip to your local hobby store. It's worth the price for these two features alone. I haven't even delved into some options this app contains. I'm sure I'll get even more use out of it in the future.

  • Top Notch

    Easy to use. Once you've played with it a bit to familiarize yourself with the app it's quick to input your painting information as well.
  • Needs a lot of work

    Unfortunately I was not impressed with this app at all.
    The simple ability to delete anything you create, eg, a project, does not exist. This means that whilst you're getting used to this app, there is no way of clearing up the mess you make whilst learning how to use it.
    Up till now, I also cannot find a way of listing a paint from the colours I've downloaded against a project either. All I get is a pretty colour wheel, where I have to try and recreate the GW paints I want to use.
    This app is basically trying too hard to do fancy stuff, when it can't even do the basics.
    I'll stick to paper and pen for now.

  • Great paint organizer!!

    I have used other to-do list apps, but none catered directly to a painters needs. This app is a great tool for any hobby painter.
  • Great App for wargamers

    Amazing app for keeping track of your paint schemes. Paint libraries for major manufacturers (citadel, Vallejo, etc) can be downloaded from the creators website. Can be a bit daunting at first, but that's just because of the sheer amount of options. Highly recommended!
  • Mr

    Very cool, need a iPad version please!
  • Great for mini paint planning and logging

    Using this app to plan and paint Malifaux crews with Golden Fluid Acrylics. It is fun to catalog all your paint colors and pick a color that matches the bottle. A numerical picker would be a nice addition. Would also like to be able to display a final color for mixtures in addition to the banded mixes. Would also like to add all materials to a mini before hand and move the star to show completion percentage. Easy to add photos of minis. Would be nice to be able to change color of material thumbnails.

  • Good start

    It's a good start but needs more to be useful to most. The biggest improvement would be having paints from major manufacturers pre-loaded. Having to figure out the color mix for each color in a project is a pain. Would also be nice to be able to add colors with Number values from Photoshop or other electronic pallets.

  • Recommended - has potential to be invaluable

    Very handy to keep you organised, consistent & motivated for ongoing (and intermittent) projects; and for those times you wish you could remember the process you'd used to paint a certain detail.

    Feedback for this version: Would love to be able to customise the order in which materials or projects are presented rather than being restricted to alphabetical order (Also, numerical order places 10 after 1 instead of after 9 for some reason). Minor gripes, but this function would make the app even better.
