This thread will be about locating our WSOs on the RYB color wheel which I've expanded to 24 segments rather then the conventional 12 segments. I've included the color wheel and charts in order to simplify the task. These charts can be very useful when trying to determine where a color resides on the color wheel in order to mix the rite color. Desaturated colors are especially difficult to pin down. The charts are not perfect but they're as close as I could get. At the top of the charts you'll notice L1, L2 etc. which is the saturation, chroma, intensity so as the color moves toward the rights it's becoming more saturated (birghter). The numbers on the left represent the value of the color. N=Neural.

Color Wheel

Let me know if the charts are too big. I was afraid to go too small and you wouldn't be able to make out the HSB values and see the colors properly.

Hi Janet,

The charts are great, but they are 1290 px wide monitor on my desk top.which is even too wide for my wide screen. Could you at cut it down to 1080 or what ever the forum is set at. It would make it much easier to follow and probably would not be too small.

Janet,

Excuse the confusing sentence. I went to edit it, but there is no choice to edit. I thought non-moderator people had a half hour to edit any post.

I just found it. On my netbook, only about 2/3's of the page shows up in this particlular post.

The charts are even too wide for my wide monitor on my desk top. That is what I meant to say.

No problem Judy, I'll make them the same width as the banner.

Ok I've resized the charts. Does it look ok?

It looks good to me. Thanks for all your work - what a great resource!

Thanks Janet,

That is much better and you can still read the smaller stuff. Thank you also for all the work you put into putting this together. It is much appreciated.

Judy

Sofie, You're welcome!

Judy, Thank you for letting me know that you can still read everything.

I'll be categorizing my paint colors when I have some time and adding the results to this thread. Please feel free to add your colors and which category you feel they would belong.

Example: "Brand" "Color Name" Yellow Value - 8 Chroma H2

I'll be working on a color wheel for each brand once we've compiled enough information. This could take a long time but eventually we should have access to enough information to make some very useful color wheels.
