PenPick started as a mobile app called Colored Pencil Picker, quickly gaining popularity among artists globally. This led to the creation of a web version that works on both desktop and mobile browsers.
As popularity grew, users and artists worldwide desired PenPick for their preferred mediums. In addition to colored pencils, we proudly provide PenPick for graphite, pastel pencils, and markers.
Along with suggesting the closest color match, PenPick also shows an accuracy percentage, indicating how close the matched pencil is to the selected color. An accuracy above 90% means you can trust the pencil choice, while above 80% is still pretty accurate. If it's below 60%, you might want to try mixing colors. PenPick also features a zoom-in feature for precise color selection.
While you might believe you've got the right colored pencil figured out, it can be tricky and often leads to unsatisfactory results. Even if the suggestion, such as using gray for skin tones, appears unconventional, trust in PenPick. Also, when PenPick recommends a seemingly too dark pencil, using exactly the suggested pencil is the key to achieving depth and photorealism, avoiding the common mistakes of creating flat-looking artwork. Give it a try, and you'll witness the remarkable difference it makes in your final outcome.
