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?


RGB are the base colors for addative methods like light mixing. Think about pixels on a screen.
CMY are the base colors for subtractive methods like paint mixing. Think about printer ink.
