What do you get when you mix...

G-MAN2004 · 29 Jul 2006 at 04:24

The colours Gold, Red and Blue?

Random I know but I was just wondering lol (Bored at this time in the morning)

Thanks.

I'd guess at brown if you are talking about mixing paint because that is the way most colour mixes went when I was in primary school.

In theory red and blue make purple if memory serves so adding yellow may lighten it?

A fantastic mix of regal purple with a subtle shimmer of gold.

Next question!

Aod · 29 Jul 2006 at 05:14

i've always thought of it more like Emerald green and Regal Purple.

Oh well, Each to his own.

mmm, interesting, could be, could be.
Could be a mix of the two!

Aod · 29 Jul 2006 at 05:36

*runs in terror*

aardvark · 29 Jul 2006 at 07:54

are those colours going to be paint or light?

because the result will be different - subtractive vs additive mixing.

Saberu · 29 Jul 2006 at 08:01

Gold is basically like yellow and BRY makes brown

I'm assuming you meant additive mixing.

Anyone noticed how at school we got taught that the primary colours are red, green, yellow but in reality they are red, green, blue

Efour · 29 Jul 2006 at 09:22

Light is different to paint yeah.

Might be a bit late now but, GO TO BED!

Gold isnt basically yellow. Gold is metallic and its pigment isnt very strong. Depending on quantities of mix he will most probably end up with a metallic purple of sorts.
