TinPot
Utilities
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The ultimate tool for miniature painters. Keep track of your paint stock, find brand equivalents, and build custom color palettes for your projects.
TinPot is the app for miniature painters and hobbyists who want to nail the right color without guesswork.
Take a reference photo — a mini, artwork, or physical swatch — pick a point with the magnifier, and instantly see the closest acrylic matches from brands like Citadel Colour, Vallejo, Army Painter, AK Interactive, and more. Matching uses Lab color space with ΔE₀₀ (CIEDE2000), the same standard color professionals rely on.
KEY FEATURES
• Color picker — Camera or gallery, touch sampling with magnifier, hex and RGB values, and a ranked list of compatible paints with brand filters.
• Dashboard — Quick access to analyze an image and view your active projects. (Coming soon!)
• Projects — Save work on your device: name, notes, category, reference photos, and colors linked to the catalog with their ΔE. (Coming soon!)
• Inventory — Track what’s on your paint shelf: catalog search, quantities per SKU, and barcode entry when the code exists in local data.
• Settings — Light, dark, or system theme; favorite brands; customizable project categories.
BUILT FOR THE HOBBY BENCH
• Bundled catalog data for color lookup without relying on a constant connection.
• Projects and inventory stored locally on your iPhone or iPad.
• App interface available in English and Spanish. (for now)
• Portrait-first layout, ideal at the painting table.
TinPot doesn’t replace your artistic judgment — it gets you closer to the reference so you waste less paint testing shades.
