Revisted Additive and Subtractive Color Models for two new stereograms. For the CMYK (the four colors used in desktop and commercial printing) I made a separate layer for each color and angled the screens at the precise angles and applied Multiply (Stained Glass) transparency. Just like the 4 color printing process.
I always have trouble remembering which model is Additive and which model is Subtractive.
Adding Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & and black transparent inks produces black. Subtracting Red, Green, and Blue light (as in display pixels) produces black. That is the official theory.
But if you subtract CYM & K you get white and if you add 100% RG & B light you get white. So this is why it is confusing.
Also where the CM & Y overlap you get Red Green and Blue and combining Red Green and Blue lights in 100% amounts can produce Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow. It's a miracle no?
