And yet if I named it Color #74 it would be even more useless. I think Candy Apple Red is a great name, myself, and I know EXACTLY what color that is.

Quote - Your colour wheel should be a sphere, populated with ovals (yes I realize ovals are 2d), and no gloss. Any finish is a whole new ball game.

I disagree, based on my goals. I'm not trying to make a color wheel. I'm trying to decide on colors to include in the set and I have to limit myself to 100. It helps to see them as they will be used, such as in car paint, to decide if I have a redundant pair that are so similar that you can only tell them apart when there is no gloss.

I am building and examining many levels of gloss, though.

Here's a sampling of 14 of my new shaders, all based on one of my color choices, which I decided to call Amber - 215, 150, 45.

On the left are the seven new BB Glossy. On the right are Candy Paints.

 


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
