Real Color Mixer
Simulate mixing real paints
Free · Designed for iPad
Unlock the perfect palette with Real Color Mixer. Whether you are a professional artist, a student, or a DIY hobbyist, Real Color Mixer provides a professional-grade paint mixing simulation. Unlike standard digital tools that use RGB (light) mixing, our app uses a sophisticated light-spectrum model to simulate physical paint mixing (subtractive color).
Stop wasting expensive materials. Now you can preview exactly how your oil, acrylic, or watercolor paints will behave in different proportions before you ever touch a brush.
Key Features:
- Realistic Paint Mixing: Simulate real-world results—mixing Red, Green, and Blue won't give you white; it creates the deep, earthy tones found in real pigments.
- Comprehensive Color Database: Access a built-in library of 430 predefined colors.
- Smart Color Calculator: Input your desired volume (Liters, Gallons, Fluid Ounces, Pints) and let the app calculate the exact paint ratios needed for your project.
- Color Matcher: Use the "Find Mixture" tool to reverse-engineer a specific target color from your existing palette.
- Image Color Picker: Upload a photo and use the eyedropper tool to extract colors and start mixing them immediately.
- Custom Palettes: Organize your workflow by saving up to 40 mixed colors per palette and managing up to 12 colors in your active mixer panel.
Advanced Art Tools:
- Texture & Brush Control: Customize the form and texture of your brush for a more realistic painting preview.
- Flexible Ratios: Effortlessly adjust mixing proportions with a single tap or long-press for bulk adjustments (+/- 10 units).
- Import & Export: Seamlessly share your palette with other devices or artists.
- Search Accuracy: Fine-tune the color search settings to get the most precise results for your specific target color.
Perfect for:
- Artists: Preview oil or acrylic mixtures without wasting paint.
- Interior Designers: Find the right shade for your next project.
- Teachers & Students: Explore color theory and the physics of light absorption and reflection.
