Johnny Wishbone Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Is there a color wheel or some kind of guide to mixing createx paints ? Or is it just a matter of experimenting to get the colors you want ? Thank you, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranker Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Createx claims to have them and will send you one for around 20bucks but when you get it it is nothing more than a color chart that shows a realistic color for each color name.I think the only way to get the color you want is to expirement with some of the basic colors and go from there.

kellure Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I'd save the $20 and invest it in jars of paint. You hit on it in the ?... experience with mixing is the best teacher. There's lots of info on the web that will offer the basics on the fundamentals of mixing colors. A basic understanding of primary colors, proportions, measuring, and making notes of successful mix ratios is important until it becomes second nature. Good luck.
