Learn2Paint is the miniature painter’s pocket studio: your pots, your colors, your recipes and the progress of your miniatures, all in one place. Free, no account, no ads and no data collection: everything stays on your device, and everything works offline except loading the reference artworks.
YOUR PAINTS
• A catalog of more than 11,000 paints from 31 brands, searchable by name, code, hue or hex.
• Your shelf in one tap, your favorite pots always first in every search.
• A shopping list: mark a pot “to buy”, tick it at the store, it joins your shelf.
• Scan a pot’s label with the camera to find it in the catalog, or photograph several pots at once.
COLORS
• A touch color wheel and seven harmonies (complementary, triad, analogous…).
• The closest paints to any color, with their ΔE difference.
• Mixes worked out from your own pots, or from primaries, white and black; keep the best ones.
• More than 400 public-domain artworks for inspiration.
LIGHT
• Volumes: where to place deep shadow, shadow, base, highlight and spot highlight on a sphere, a cloak, a head…
• For each tone, the paint to use in your favorite brand.
• Light effects: non-metallic metal (NMM), object source lighting (OSL) and reflected color from a nearby surface, with their tones and placement rules.
YOUR MINIATURES
• A photo, boxed zones, and for each zone a five-tone recipe suggested automatically, which you validate.
• Progress step by step, from prep to varnish, and an overview of your projects: what waits, what moves, what is done.
• The pots a recipe is missing go straight to your shopping list.
• Try another color on a zone of the photo, shadows and highlights kept, before adopting it.
• Simulate a 70/20/10 scheme on the photo of your primed miniature to see the result before you paint.
• Export the recipe as text or as an image, and share your miniature’s scheme: it adapts to the pots of whoever receives it.
TO LEARN
• 18 technique sheets: washes, drybrushing, glazing, two-brush blending, priming, varnish, NMM, OSL…
Back up your studio to a file and restore it on another device.
Catalog colors come from a community dataset: they are approximate, and no screen shows a pot exactly. Learn2Paint is not affiliated with any paint brand.
