Subtractive color overlap?

[feklee]

Thanks, Gary, for the examples on how to use these types of transparency / mixing productively! (and I love stereo images :-)

Thanks the explanations, so briefly
- Stained glass 0% that is equal to "adding zero white"?
- Bleach 0% that is equal to "adding zero black"?



But sorry if lost somewhere, it is also interesting that very much seems a kind of math In RGB model so adding and removing 255

Stained glass 0% is equal to subtracting from white to make black. R255 G255 B255 = White R0 G0 B0 = Black

Bleach 0% is equal to adding to black to make it white.

Just to sum up for myself how subtractive mixing ("stained glass") works on paper:

• Magenta color removes the green component of the light,
• cyan removes the yellow component, and
• yellow removes the blue component.

[Soquili]

Very close, cyan removes the red component.

[feklee]

Very close, cyan removes the red component.

That was really a typo. Actually, I am quite proficient with the additive color model, and it's not too hard to derive the subtractive color model from it.
