Image Color Picker
A true artist finds inspiration in the swirling chaos of the cosmos—the dying light on a dragon's scale, the spectral glow of a cursed blade, the weathered banner of a conquering legion. The Image Color Picker is your scrying pool, a tool that lets you capture that fleeting essence and bottle it for your own dark purposes. Feed any image into the machine and pluck a color from its very soul with a click.
But capturing the color is merely the first incantation. From here, you can unleash its true power. Send your newly captured pigment to the Color Matcher to find its earthly equivalent in the mortal realms of Citadel or Vallejo. Or, transport it to the Color Mixer's alchemical bench to see if you can roll a natural 20 and conjure it from the potions you already command. Need to read volumes before you pick? Toggle B&W Mode to strip colour away and see pure light and shadow. Let no vision go unpainted!
How to use the Image Colour Picker
Upload any image — a painting, a reference photo of a finished miniature, a screenshot, or concept art — and click anywhere on it to sample the exact colour at that pixel. The HEX code for your selected colour appears instantly, alongside buttons to find matching paints or send the colour to the mixer. Because sampling reads the raw pixel value, you can pull a colour from a single highlight on a blade or a shadow in a cloak, not just the dominant tone of the image.
Click Find Match to search across all major brands — Citadel, Vallejo, Army Painter, Scale75, Pro Acryl, and more — and rank every paint by how close its hex value is to the colour you sampled. Click Mix This Colour to send the sample to the Colour Mixer, which suggests combinations of paints you already own that together approximate the target — useful when recreating a colour you can see but cannot find as a single direct match.
Tips for accurate sampling
Use a well-lit, high-resolution image and zoom in before clicking so you sample the precise pixel you mean. Photos taken under coloured lighting shift the hue, so daylight or neutral white-balanced references give matches closest to the real paint. Use the B&W Mode toggle to convert the image to greyscale — handy for reading volume and value contrast before committing to a colour pick.
What image formats can I upload?
Any standard web image — JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. The image is read locally in your browser using a canvas element and is never uploaded to a server.
How accurate is the colour match?
The picker reads the exact RGB value of the pixel you click and ranks paints by colour distance. Accuracy depends on your source image — lighting, compression, and screen calibration all affect the on-screen colour.
Can I match a colour from a photo of a painted model?
Yes. Photograph the model in neutral light, upload it, and sample the area you want to replicate to find the closest paint across many brands.
Is my image stored anywhere?
No. Everything happens locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to or stored on any server.
