Colour Wheel & Harmony Generator
Every warlord knows that a warband painted without a unified scheme is an army without a banner. The Colour Harmony Wheel is your war council — choose a base, declare your doctrine, and the Wheel marshals every hue into formation. Complementary for maximum contrast on your elites. Analogous for the rank-and-file. Triadic for a hero who demands to stand alone. The palette is yours to command.

How the colour wheel works
Every colour on the wheel is defined by its hue (the angle around the circle), its saturation (how far it sits from the white centre) and its brightness (the handle you drag around the outer ring). Choosing a harmony rule places extra dots at fixed angles from your base colour:
Analogous — neighbours ±30° away, for calm, unified palettes.
Triadic — three hues evenly spaced 120° apart, balanced and vibrant.
Split & Double Split Complementary — a softer take on contrast using the colours either side of the complement.
Rectangle & Tetradic — four-colour schemes built from two complementary pairs.
Drag the larger dot to move the whole scheme, or drag any smaller dot to rotate the palette around it. Drag the knob on the outer ring to brighten or darken every colour at once, then click a swatch to copy its hex code into your painting notes.
Frequently asked questions
A colour wheel arranges hues around a circle so you can see how they relate. By picking a base colour and a harmony rule, the wheel finds the other hues that sit at fixed angles from it, giving you a balanced palette to paint with.
Complementary colours sit opposite each other on the wheel (180° apart) and create strong contrast. Analogous colours sit next to each other (roughly 30° apart) and create calm, unified palettes. Split and double-split variants soften a complementary pair by using its neighbours instead.
Use the base colour for your main surface, then place complement or split-complement hues in the shadows and recesses to make the model read with depth. Keep one colour dominant and the harmony hues as accents so the scheme stays cohesive.
Yes. Click “Find matches from my Hoard” and the tool will match each harmony colour to the closest paint in your collection, so you can build the scheme with paints you already own.
