like if you wanted to mix paint to get a color from a computer would you do the opposite of what the RGB value is? I’m confused

like if I wanted to take the RBG code R:99, G: 66, B, 33 wouldn’t it look more lightful than if I mixed paint into 1 part blue, 2 part green, 3 part red? how would you paint a color code?

    Yeah that’s basically what I’m describing.

    I think you just have more of a precise, technical way of describing it probably because you’ve actually professionally worked with color and received some formal training

    Whereas I’m a guy with some self-taught Photoshop skills who paints minis, so my color theory is a little rough and ready.
