Absolutely Amazing!!!!

10 stars!

Update needed

I love this app. It’s an incredible tool. That said, there is no option for the caran dache luminance set of 100 and that is really limiting my current experience. Would give a solid 5/5 otherwise.

Plus de marques

C’est super ingénieux comme application. Ce serait bien d’avantages de marques, même les moyens gamme

Hue is completely off.

I wanted this app to help me with a particular project on my adult coloring. I need help when it comes to layering to blend to recreate a photo. I wasted my money. And ruined my project. I should have looked at the original phot instead of in the app. I may have been able to fix it. If you have a photo of a colored page that you are looking at, and try to match it up, you put the center thing in it, the moment you move it it completely goes to another color combination. You move it slightly in a small range of area and it gives you a hundred of options of colors. One little area that you are looking at should give you that specific color combination.
But it doesn't. The blended colors often look muddy. The instructions are vague. This was a complete waste of my money.

Not accurate color

The hue is way off. Bummer

A good start to help choose colours

Please can you remove this picture of the month option? I get notified each month and it’s been the same picture of 3 jelly babies since I first bought this app years ago.

Otherwise this app is great when you don’t know where to start with choosing your colours. You upload an image and drag the target over where you need it.
It could be improved if the image would stay in situ when you switch pencil sets, or when you open and close app. I’ve found one or two colours a bit off but mostly it is a help.

Used for nearly all of my art pieces

I use this app for every colored pencil project now. It (unintentionally) taught me to use the grisaille method when using a reference. There’s a detailing scale that distorts the image to easily see the contrast of your highlights/shadows, to slowly build up color.
My only complaints are: the color reference is for high-end brands; Luminance only exceeds 76; Polychromos flesh tone names are outdated; Prismacolor (Lavender&Lilac) are still a color reference despite being discontinued.
However, this is actually pretty irrelevant if you’re familiar with a set of budget pencils. If you have a swatch chart handy, it can easily be used for any set - I absolutely love it.
It was worth it for me to pay the one time fee of $5 to unlock everything for the things I do with it nearly everyday.

I get notifications to download the photo of the month - and that has been the same photo for well over a year now. Drives me bonkers. Notifications are switched off now.

This is the goat

I’ve used this for years it’s so epic

Colors way off

I purchased the pro expecting the best. I tried using the prismacolor mixing that was suggested but the colors were no where near what they were supposed to be. I tried contacting the owner for help. I received no response and found navigation in the app not very user friendly. App was a great idea but unfortunately a waste of money. Wish I could get a refund.

Love it!

Very easy and intuitive and I received an immediate response from the developer when I needed more guidance. I own several brands of colored pencils but have the 120 Polychromos set, Prismacolor 72, the Luminance and Pablo 40 sets. Being able to choose the size and brand of the sets you have is wonderful because you don’t face being told to use colors you don’t own. Until Bonny Snowden mentioned this kind of app in one of her Vlogs, I had no idea something of this kind even existed. I’m so glad it does. I purchased the upgrade to access the 3rd color and feel it was well worth the $.

Wonderful

This is a very useful app that has helped me achieve realism for the first time in many years of practice. It sees colors I can’t on my own.

I wonder if the creator would consider, though, adding the rest of the Caran d’Ache Luminance line now that there’s a 100-set(?).

Thank you so much!

Restore purchase

Bought a new iPad
Will not let me restore purchase to use on new iPad

Great app

I love this app. Wish I could find the same thing for pastel pencils

Not accurate. Wasted money

Skin colors turned out muddy and I absolutely ruined a sketch that I spent hours working on. There’s no support for the app at all. No response from the developers for help. Heartbreaking.

Très pratique pour le coloriste et portraitiste

Quel outil génial et méthodique pour les illustrations, afin d’améliorer sa technique, donc plus besoin de tatillonner pour trouver ses couleurs dans nos étuis pour obtenir les effets et les textures voulus dans nos colos, sans toujours tester les combinaisons de nos numéros à côté!

Color picker

Easy app works great for colored pencil but you can use it for watercolor oil I found the app on you tube and it works great or anything you want to match your color palette to your reference

It’s amazing!

It’s really nice and easy to use, helps a lot when looking for the correct colors!

I would like to suggest the manager team to add the Caran D’Ache Luminance up to 100, the all had only the 76 version of it! It would help even more!

Excelente

Muito bom!

Pretty awesome

Would really love if some more companies could be added such as crayola or other budget brands
