Petes21 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Hello, I'm trying to figure out how these color values were obtained. I'm in this page https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_wheels.asp The RYB values have #FEFE33 as yellow, not #FFFF00, for red it's #FE2712, not #FF0000 and so on. I understand the difference between the additive and subtractive models but my question is how the values for RYB were obtained. Is there a something like a mathematical model, a convention or standard or somebody eyeballed it? Notice that there are discrepancies between the color wheel and the table below and it's probably more noticeable with green #66B032 because in the color wheel it's a lot darker. I've seen other values in other places (like here https://bahamas10.github.io/ryb/about.html) and as an example here is a list of values for RYB blue from different online sources: #003fff #007fff #2a71af #0247fe. So I'm a bit confused and I'm trying to find the best RYB model for me. Edited May 21, 2019 by Petes21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I don't think there's a single standard that everyone uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
