Hobby Color Converter

★★★★★ This app is a real help for me. Most shops where I live (the Netherlands) mainly have Humbrol, Revell, Vallejo and Tamika and sometimes AK and MIG. My own collection of paints mainly consists of the first four so I'm less inclined to order any tin or bottle of the other brands - for which I then also have to pay shipping costs. Many paint references in the instruction manuals of plastic model kits I buy are NOT in those four brands but for example in Federal Standard, Testers or Gunge. So being able to find (close) matches with colors I DO have is fantastic. Two negatives: #1 Brands often disagree with each other as to what exact hue, shade, or lightness a specific color is. That is not the fault of HCC. For example, finding correct German WW2 RLM colors can be difficult in a number of cases even with this app. #2 Sometimes HCC makes an error, but it's easy to inform him about this, and he will correct it.

★★★★★ I can't recommend this app enough. Just grab it if you are a miniature painter, I've been using it for at least 8 years now maybe, but it always helped me find a paint I want and helped me save a lot of money by not spending them on expensive GW paints

★★☆☆☆ Thanks firbyour response where you llcleaely didn't read my review. My issue wasn't the equivalent color part. It wa the fact that the color displayed on the scree bears little resemblance to the actual coloutlr of the paint.
