iModelKit Light FAQ
Is iModelKit Light free?
Yes, iModelKit Light is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is iModelKit Light legit?
🤔 The iModelKit Light app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
It would be great if the developers kept the app updated with paints and with bugs. Many paints available to me are not in the app. The photo library and internet color selection no longer works. There is no way to select colors based on RGB, HEX, or other color classification systems. The developer is unresponsive to these issues. The App Store no longer recognizes that I paid for the full version. Save your money.
Revision: In review of developer comments, the issues described above remain. My installed app says iModelKit Light, but the id6 store (not Apple App Store) says I have the premium plus inventory version. The refresh feature is inactive. Paint charts can be updated but many don’t exist. I’m not going to risk downloading the full version again for $9.99 to have the same problems. The last app update was 7 years ago. Too long. Save your money until the app is rebuilt.
New review
My first review was from 2014 and I don't see it here anymore so an updated review would not be amiss.
I absolutely love this app. I have over six pocket sized note books full of color recipes. I dare say over 800+ colors. From everywhere. Reading an hobby article. New recipe. Find a picture, chase down the recipe using RGB feature. Find the color RGB numbers, make a color chip for it, mix using your favorite brand of paint.
I try to convert 99.9% of the recipes to Tamiya brand, because they easily available to me, practically foolproof system and very few colors can not be mixed with them.
Support is fantastic.
Other companies large and small could learn a lot about customer relations from these people.
As a suggestion, I asked if they had seen the popularity of craft paints being used by people on YT, and on one of the next updates, several brands were included as options for inclusion. I'd like to think I had something to do with that.
I understand in the near future another update is due and so look forward to that one.
You can not go wrong with this app.
Disappointed
The barcode scanner worked erratically, skipped many colors in the same series that it found others in like ak interactive and reaper. When will you come out with ak interactive real colors?
No Comparison charts
This appears to be more of a list of catalogs/paints and how to mix them. Unfortunately I’m looking for substitution charts. When given an FS number or Italeri number what would be the closest Tamiya bottle and/or spray. My misunderstanding.
Fantastic Support
I’m mostly using the application to keep track of my paints. I noted that they didn’t have any of the Wilder products listed and decided to just shoot them a quick email on a Saturday asking if they planned to include them in the future. I couldn’t believe it but received a response the next day.
I can’t emphasize enough that it’s clear id6 has the highest regard for customer input and providing the best product of its kind on the market. Cheers gentlemen!
Decent but needs updating.
Decent app, but really needs to be updated. Many colors since the last release, aka MRP that are not listed. Really hope the devs comeback to this app.
Not Full Line or TAP
Please add the full line of the army painter super annoying without it
Great app but could use a touch more
I love this app, it’s a great way to control paint and supply inventory. I wish there was a better way to add custom inventories such as tools, and model inventory. I think it would be of great help for those of us who are big scratch builders and 3D printers. App is definitely worth while as is though. Just an old grump who would like more.
Just what I was looking for
This was just what I was looking for. Great coverage of available paints. Would have given it 5 stars but missing Vallejo mech colors.
Great Modelling Resource!
This app is a great resource for the scale modeler with it's library of paints that can be cross referenced to the various brands available. Some of the new features like the paint stock list, mixing library, etc., make it a must have!
