If Green is a primary colour, how come I was able to mix Blue and Yellow and get
Green when I was a little boy of 5; surely that makes it a secondary colour?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

NCS from a practical PoV.
When I was designing my apartment's colour schemes, I went to the DIY store and
looked at hundreds of little multi-coloured cardboard strips. I just got
confused about colour relationships and what does and doesn't go together etc.
and the 3 colour wheel wasn't much extra help. Then I discovered the 4 colour
wheel, used NCS navigator to select colours, and their NCS colour specifications
to tell the DIY store what to mix.
The NCS colour specifications are very logical, making it easy to shift shades
and saturations by small amounts using the numbers. The navigator has a grid
where you can park and shuffle your chosen colours around for comparison
purposes. This worked well.
