Never forget a paint mix again. BrushLog is a miniature painting recipe manager for tabletop hobbyists. "Was it Mephiston Red and Corax White at 2:1, or 3:1?" Stop guessing. Record every recipe — paints, ratios, layers, and notes — linked to each miniature you own. 【What you can do with BrushLog】 ▷ Record Paint Recipes Save the paints used, mix ratios, layer order, and step notes for every recipe. Attach multiple recipes to one mini (base coat, shade, highlight, etc.). Duplicate recipes or copy them to another miniature. ▷ Link Paints to Minis — Both Ways See exactly which paints went on any mini, and which minis use any given paint. Finished works are shown in a clean grid view. ▷ 5,900+ Color Presets Citadel, Vallejo, Mr. Hobby, and more — built right in. Pick from the library or set any custom hex color with the color wheel. ▷ Track Progress & Painting Time Four stages: Backlog → Building → Painting → Done. Log time spent on each mini.
