Paintdex

Find the right miniature paint

Search a database of miniature paints with hex colour values, compare colours across brands, plan and share whole paint schemes.

Plan your whole colour scheme

The paint scheme visualiser lets you group paints by element — armour, robes, lenses, etc — and preview every colour together as vertical bars: base at the bottom, highlights at the top, washes and weathering layered over. Add paints from the database or your own custom values.

Turn a finished model into a shareable image

Drop in a photo of your model and the visualiser lays your scheme over it as a 4:5 image built for social media — one callout per element, each showing its colour ramp and the paints that made it, joined by a leader line to the spot on the model.

Sign in with a Google account to save schemes and share them as links, too.

Build a scheme, then hit Create shareable image in the visualiser.

An example share image: a bone-and-green painted war engine, with six labelled callouts around it naming the paints used for its armour, metallics, rubber and lenses.
