Turn your pile of shame
into pride.

- Free for up to 20 models
- No credit card required
- Built by painters, for painters
Sound familiar?
You buy faster than you paint.
The shelf keeps growing. Half-painted squads sit in a drawer. Spreadsheets get out of date by week two. You love this hobby — but the backlog has started to feel like a chore.
- 📦
Untracked piles
You can’t remember what’s primed, what’s built, or what’s still in shrink-wrap.
- 🖌️
Forgotten progress
Half-painted minis lose momentum because nothing reminds you to come back.
- 🪦
Quiet guilt
A hobby that should feel good slowly turns into a wall of unfinished projects.
Features
Built for the way painters actually work.
Not a project manager. Not a spreadsheet. A focused little app that respects the hobby.
- 📚
Track your collection
Log every model from sprue to display shelf. Know exactly what you own, what stage it’s at, and what’s next.
- 📸
Document the journey
Snap progress photos, jot recipes, and keep notes on each project. Your painting log, finally in one place.
- 🎯
Finish what you start
Set realistic goals, build streaks, and watch progress bars fill. Small wins, week after week.
- 🔥
Streaks that motivate
A gentle nudge to pick up the brush — without turning your hobby into another to-do app.
- 🎨
Recipes you keep
Save your color schemes per faction so the army you started in 2022 still matches in 2026.
- 🏆
Celebrate finishes
Every completed model is a win. Basecoat helps you actually feel them.

Add your collection

Paint and log
Update progress as you go. Save color recipes. Drop in process shots. Build a real history of your work.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
-
When does Basecoat launch?
We’re in private beta now and rolling out invites to the waitlist regularly. Join to get an early invite and a permanent launch discount. -
What platforms will it support?
Basecoat is mobile-first. iOS and Android at launch, with a web companion later for managing big collections. -
Do I have to use it for everything?
No. Track only the projects you actually care about — a single army, a Kill Team, or your whole shelf. The app scales to you. -
Will my data be safe?
Yes. Pro accounts include cloud backup and sync. You own your data, you can export it any time, and we never sell it. -
Is this just for Warhammer?
No — Basecoat works for any miniature: Warhammer 40k, Age of Sigmar, D&D minis, historicals, board game minis, scale models. If you paint it, you can track it.
