Ratings and Reviews
Much better than my own intuition
When I'm trying to paint, I try to get the exact tone and value. It's quite a hit or miss affair but getting the ratios of primaries for any given speck of colour on a photo I'm using is a huge help. It even trains me as I go!
No CMYK
I wish I had known, before I bought and downloaded this app, that it doesn’t support standard CMYK - the colours I mostly choose to work in. It just gives “recipes” for Red, Yellow and Blue paints. One would presume they mean “primary” R, Y & B, if there is such a standard, but no reference is given. I can imagine a lot of people being disappointed with muddy mixes from using the wrong R, Y & B!
I hope that one day the developers will add a CMYK option. In the meantime I’ll just go back to using my own judgment.
Add black please!
Good app for mixing colours for blending polymer clay for jewellry. But it needs some refining. Please
- add black to the mixing palette
- allow mixing in smaller proportions
- improve the instructions in the help.
Otherwise good and a great help.
