About this app

PRISM is a paint mixing and colour planning tool built specifically for miniature painters who want control over their schemes, not just paint substitution charts.

Most painting apps focus on matching brand-to-brand colours. PRISM focuses on something deeper...

How colours behave when mixed.

Whether you're working from scratch, painting an STL without a guide, or building a limited palette system, PRISM helps you:

• Design complete colour schemes
• Break schemes into base, shade, highlight and final highlight
• Mix paints digitally before wasting physical paint
• Reduce the total number of paints you need
• Understand colour relationships clearly

-Built for Real Mixing-

PRISM is designed around structured palette systems using as few paints as possible from the INSTAR Alpha range.

Instead of asking:

“What’s the closest paint to this?”

PRISM helps you ask:

“How do I build this colour?”

This makes it ideal for painters who want:

• Smaller paint collections
• Greater control
• Sustainable hobby habits
• Repeatable, consistent results

- PRISM isn’t limited to INSTAR Alpha -

You can build colour schemes using paints from other manufacturers straight off the shelf, or combine multiple brands within the same scheme.

Whether you work primarily with other brands, PRISM allows you to:

• Select paints you already own
• Build structured base / shade / highlight progressions
• Compare colour relationships across brands
• Mix within a brand or across brands
• Reduce duplication in your collection

You’re not forced into a single ecosystem.

PRISM works whether you prefer ready-made paints, mixing your own paints or use a hybrid approach

-Sustainability First-

INSTAR has focused on sustainability since 2017. Recyclable packaging, minimal waste design and reduced paint consumption.

PRISM follows the same principles:

• Fewer paints
• Smarter mixing
• Less waste
• Longer-lasting collections

-Who Is PRISM For?-

• Miniature painters
• Wargamers
• Scale modellers
• Hobbyists working from STL files
• Painters who prefer mixing over collecting hundreds of bottles
• Painters who prefer off the shelf paints over mixing

If you want more control over your painting process, PRISM is built for you.
