I used to run Gimp when editing the photos of my painted miniatures.
But right now its seems that Gimp doesn´t want to work with my computer.
Usually i do the old Colors, levels and Auto.
There jobs done, maybe a few corrections here and there.
But lately Gimp has refused to work on my computer.
No matter what i try Gimp refuses to work, i load up the picture in Gimp and then try the usual combination nothing happens, and no matter what i do i can´t seem to get Gimp to clean up the photo.

So anyone got any good alternatives it doesn´t have to be free as long as it can do the same as Gimp can with the whole Colors, levels and auto.
Also any toturials on how to use it to clean up photos of miniatures would be great, as i am not very technically minded and prefer things to be as simple as possible.

If you mainly need simple color, levels, and automatic adjustments, Affinity Photo is worth looking at. It has a fairly straightforward workflow once you get familiar with the basics, and it handles RAW and regular image editing well.

For painted miniatures, I’d also recommend keeping the original photo and making adjustments gradually rather than relying entirely on auto correction. Usually a small levels/curves adjustment, correcting white balance, and a little contrast can make the miniature look much closer to how it appears in person.

There are plenty of beginner tutorials for miniature photography and editing, so you shouldn’t need anything overly technical to get good results.
