Description
Introducing ColorMixer - the revolutionary color mixing app that takes the guesswork out of achieving your desired color! With ColorMixer, you can effortlessly mix colors to achieve your desired shade, or even "unmix" a color to reveal its individual components and the percentage of each color required for your target color.
Our "Mix" mode allows you to experiment with different color ratios, giving you the freedom to create endless color possibilities. Meanwhile, our "Unmix" mode provides you with the perfect mixing solutions for any selected color.
With our "Convert" feature, you can effortlessly transform one color into another. And thanks to our extensive built-in color library, featuring popular brands such as Winsor & Newton, Tamiya, Gunze, and RAL color standard, you have access to an array of colors to choose from.
But that's not all - with our comprehensive color picker, you can select colors from various color libraries, color codes, and even images or live camera views.
Say goodbye to the frustration of color mixing and try ColorMixer today - your ultimate color mixing solution!
* Kindly keep in mind that the app's calculation of mixing ratios & results relies on light absorption theory under ideal conditions. However, the actual properties of the paint and lighting can affect the mixing outcome. Hence, our mixing suggestions are meant to be guidelines, not 100% accurate. For the best results, we recommend using fully opaque paint.
Recent changes: What's new in 3.3.0 • New brands: Citadel and The Army Painter (Warpaints Fanatic). • AK Interactive (1,000+ colors) and Vallejo refreshed with the latest ranges. • Paint libraries are now free and update automatically. • New Find Color search across all libraries, plus sort and group your saved colors.

Looks great! Lots of options. I do wish there was an option for paint mixing (subtractive) rather than light mixing (additive). Thanks for fixing the bug (prompt response 👍) when trying to mix a color picked from camera feed!

Having an own color library means you can get it to mix colors using paints you already have. What would bring it up to 5 stars for me would be if Revell paints could be added. Revell are well known for having you mix up colors in their instructions using their own paints.

Easily the best app to help me mix colors for model building. Marked down only because it could have the ability to manually edit the color library.

The changes to saved mixes ruined this app for me. I use it to save multiple color palettes and separate with the same white since there are no folders where I can separate my mixes. There so many things I wish would be implemented like being able to pick and drag a saved color mix. Folders like I said instead of the one saved color mix for all. And bring back having multiple of the same color mix. You literally ruined my saved color palette when it was removed.

I like the app, want to purchase pro, but there is an error that doesn't allow me to pay. I need to access Vallejo colors. I'll gladly change to 5 stars after the fix

At first, it was fine, making a color pallet with my own colors and mixing them up just like the app promised to do... But then I went out of the app and when I came back in all of my mixes were different, I specifically unselected "Physically Based" on each one of the mixes just to the mixes to become physically based, and there is no way no revert that so the app doesn't even do what it promises properly... It would've been much better if it was a toggle that stays permanently on.
