Hervorragend praktisch!

Die App hilft einen hervorragend beim Organisieren der Farben. In kurzer Zeit meinen ganzen Bestand via Scans erfasst. Nur wenige Farben musste ich manuell ergänzen

Klasse ist auch das Anlegen von Projekten mit eigenen Fotos, Farben usw. Man kann sogar Mischungsverhältnisse angeben und eigene Notizen ergänzen.

Auf meinem Iphone finde ich allerdings in der App den Regler nicht, wie ich den Bearbeitungsfortschritt anlege. Ob das (noch) nicht geht oder ich es einfach nicht gefunden habe, weiß ich nicht.

Just Awesome!

Love this app. I tend to have 3-4 projects on the go at once and having my recipes and combos dialed in here allows me to come back to block of minis or a theme, or just remember a technique I used on a previous project. You cannot go wrong with this app!

Sehr umfangreiche App, die vor Allem sehr übersichtlich gestaltet ist. Hinzufügen von Farben und Malschemata funktioniert mühelos.

Schade

Ich finde es unübersichtlich. Ja ich hab alle Farben eingescannt von mir aber was dann? es wäre schön sie den Miniaturen zu zufügen und dann auf die Figuren zu tragen oder so. Wozu die Prozent dahinter? Dann muss man alles nur kompliziert dazu fügen sonst funktioniert es nicht. Und irgendwann sieht man einfach nicht mehr durch in der App weil man ständig irgendwelche Sachen benennen soll und irgendwo hin fügen soll aber was bringt das und wo ist das? So dann hab ich Material dazugefügt aber wo steht das? Ich kann nur hoffen da passiert noch was in der App!

Vielen Dank für Dein Feedback! Die App ist sehr offen gestaltet daher ist es vorteilhaft, die individuellen Projekte, Miniaturen, Materialien zu benennen, damit man die Übersicht behält. Leider folgt daraus auch, dass man Materialien einer Miniatur hinzufügt, ein Material besteht aus mehreren Farben/Mischungen usw.. Selbstverständlich wird Dein Feedback in die weitere Entwicklung mit einbezogen! Vielen Dank!

Update

Great app if they would only stay on top of paint releases.

Stability issues

App seems to be crashing every few mins on iPhone 11 running lastest software

Best that I have found so far but could use some improvements.

I would love if the app could use iCloud to auto backup the DB. It would also be great if you could mark a step as done with a swipe rather then a press and hold. Would be nice if you could save how many of a paint you have rather then just if you have it.

Sweet app!

Saw this being used on Facebook. Legit sick app so far! Can’t wait to see what else I can do with it.

This is a must for mini painters

The only thing I can critique about this app. Is that it needs an IPad version, a gradient option for shifting color paints, and a place to enter the hex codes for colors for custom entries. Other then that, it’s near perfect and I use it all the time.

Dear Triplewammy, a hotfix for the issue on downloading paints has been released a few days ago and should fix the problem. If the problem still persists on your side, please contact support again!

Crashed on opening lost all data.

Crashed on opening. Lost all my projects, colour schemes, everything I spent months building and depending on this app to keep track of. Can’t trust this app anymore.

Scan funktioniert nicht?

Hallo, ich habe die App heruntergeladen und bin extrem entäuscht. Bei sechs aktuellen Citadel Farben wurde der Barcode zwar jedesmal exakt erkannt, dann kam jedesmal der Hinweis das die App keine Farbe kennt...

Dabei wäre es so klasse, wenn man damit seine 200+ Farben Einscannen könnte! Und dann eine perfekte Datenbank hat die vor Doppel- oder Dreifach Käufen bewahrt.

Oder kann die App gar nicht über die Scanfunktion die eigenen Farben erfassen?

Response from developer

Die App hat, unter anderem, genau die Funktion die Sie beschreiben: der Aufbau einer Datenbank Ihres Farbvorrats, per Scan, manueller Download von PaintBay oder selbst definierten Farben. Warum dies in ihrem individuellen Fall nicht funktioniert, sollte man per Support-Anfrage klären. Aktuell sind 4136 (Stand 09.08.2020) Farben in der online Datenbank „PaintBay“ vorhanden und per Scan oder manuellem Download der App hinzufügbar. Wenn Farben fehlen, gerade neue Farben, können in der App, per eMail oder Discord angefragt werden und werden im Normalfall in 2-3 Werktagen hinzugefügt. Optional können Farben vom Benutzer selbst hinzugefügt werden; man ist nicht limitiert auf die vordefinierten Farben der PaintBay-Datenbank. Der beste Weg um Probleme mit der App zu lösen, ist eine Anfrage an den Support per Kontaktformular auf der Website, per Facebook oder per Discord-Kanal.

Great organization tool

Didn’t think I would like this app as much as I do but it’s fantastic! It forces you to take the time and plan out your project for each part of your painting.

Dev suggestion: Instead of using the ‘bookmark’ feature of a painting step to track progress, maybe make a small radio button or a slide step to count that step as done. I want to bookmark a paint step to return to it, not necessarily to track progress.

You gotta get this app!

I’m not really used to giving reviews so here goes. I think the app is great. Everything from the paints you have access to and the way you can plan out your mini’s paint scheme and select the paint you would need is fantastic.

Also the way you can select what’s in your stock and what’s available out there to creating a shopping list for what paints you might need is awesome. If a paint isn’t in your database to request it from PaintBay which is the online database that all the paints are derived from before you download them to your database.

All in all this is one of the best apps I have on my phone today. You gotta get this app!

Awesome app please keep it going

Photo function could improve but otherwise have found this app to be invaluable. Good work chaps & hope it keeps rolling.

Has potential

The app has potential, but the interface is clunky, and it has not been updated with GW contrast paints. Also, there is no way to store your inventory of paints.

Thank you very much for your feedback! Its highly appreciated. There is a bright future for the app and updates are along the way with inventory tracking etc. Remember: You can allways add missing or custom paints yourself. You are not limited to the presets of the app. Best and thanks again!

An invaluable tool

It’s an amazing app. Keeps me consistent not only in how I paint but also lets me check exactly how I achieved an effect for use with future projects. Quite invaluable for reminding me what’s been done already when I came back to an army after a few months working on something else. My only complaint would be that the downloadable paint ranges aren’t updated frequently enough to account for changes in the product line.

Thank you very much for your feedback! Its highly appreciated. When the new paint backend is ready a lot new paints are along the way. In the meantime: You can allways add missing or custom paints yourself. You are not limited to the presets of the app. Best and thanks again!

Awesome app, needs a little more...

This app is awesome for keeping track of large paint jobs. The way you can create materials and then assign them to minis is also fantastic. This app is so close to 5 stars, but it needs a little more, namely:

- The order of the minis change every time you open the app and there’s no sorting methods. The ability to alpha sort is important for larger jobs.

- The ability to group minis in to folders would really clean up the miniatures section. Considering that many games have clans/tribes/races/etc the ability to place minis in folders would be of great benefit.

- I would love to be able to collapse each category in the materials page. That way instead of scrolling through to find what you want you could look for the category you want, tap on it (expanding it), and then look for the material you want.

Fantastic & flexible!

This is a must-have for even occasional hobby painters. Forgot how what colors you mixed to get your leather like that? What wash did you use on the face? Never again! Individual miniatures can be saved into group projects, so you can organize by game, commission, warband, or however you please.
