Tintwell
Tintwell puts your miniature's paints on a color wheel, finds the harmonies that work, and matches every one of them to a real paint you can buy or already own.
Windows and Android. iOS later. Works offline, no account.
Citadel, Vallejo, The Army Painter, AK Interactive, AMMO by Mig Jimenez, Scale75, Pro Acryl, Reaper, Kimera Kolors, Two Thin Coats, Tamiya, Mr. Hobby, Humbrol, Revell, Green Stuff World, Turbo Dork, P3, Coat d'Arms, Foundry, Warcolours, Mission Models, Golden, Liquitex and more.
The hue strip lays every paint out at its true lightness: yellow sits high, blue sits low. Value contrast, the thing that makes a miniature read from across the table, becomes obvious at a glance.
Stack a zenithal primer, basecoat, wash, glaze, drybrush and edge highlight on a 3D model and turn it under studio, side or rim light. Coats behave like paint: a wash pools, an ink tints, an opaque layer covers.
Blue and yellow make green here, not grey. The mixing bench models pigment the way it behaves on your wet palette, then tells you which ready-made paint comes closest so you can skip the mixing next time.
Mark the paints you own, or paste the list from your notes or a shop order and Tintwell matches it, product codes included. Suggestions can then stick to what's on your shelf, or show what's worth buying.
Export a shopping list of the paints you still need, a palette sheet with value scale and highlight ramps to keep next to your model, or a print-ready PDF.
Tick the paints you own or paste your list once.
Choose a harmony and get real paints for every target.
Layer, light and mix until the scheme reads well.
Export what to buy and the sheet for your desk.

The best-known hobby paints, from Citadel, Vallejo and The Army Painter to AK Interactive, AMMO, Scale75, Pro Acryl, Reaper, Kimera, Tamiya and Mr. Hobby. You can limit everything to the brands you actually use.
Matches are measured with CIEDE2000, the same color difference used by print and paint labs. Screens and paint batches vary, so treat on-screen colors as a close guide and check the real pot before committing.
Yes. Paste a list from your notes, a spreadsheet or a shop order. Tintwell matches product codes and names, and asks you about anything unclear instead of guessing.
Yes. The mixing bench and the 3D preview use a spectral pigment model, so blue and yellow make green and a glaze tints what is underneath, as on your miniature.
