Additive color: color created by superimposing light rays. Superimposing the three primary color lights- red, blue, and green- produces white.The secondaries are cyan, yellow, and magenta.

Subtractive color: The sensation of color that is produced when wavelengths of light are reflected back to the viewer after all the wavelengths have been absorbed.

I would go into more detail on how this works for the lamen but I find this pointless on the internet. Anyways, the designer should have known better, unless he is self trained and knows nothing about traditional art. If ink mixes anything like paint does then the colors (hues) should be the primary colors…

Primary colors: the preliminary hues that cannot be broken down or reduced into component colors. The basic hues of any color system that in theory may be used to mix all the other colors.

So the pen should contain hues or colors: Yellow, Red, and Blue. Since mixing all three doesn’t create a perfect black, a black ink may also be necessary. As for white, leave the canvas blank since white ink probably doesn’t cover any other hue properly.

Argue my point, but my reference (something that doesn’t exist in non-logical internet jabber) is:
Art Fundamentals: Theory and Practice. Tenth Edition

whoa… art school is paying off.

Of course it was shopped… they messed with the color of the cartridges. It should be Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow. O_o

Photoshopped, I can tell because it has pixels.

Actually, if you do know, you are more right to be a condescending twat than if you don’t know. Especially when the person receiving your condescension is obviously a pratt. If Trevor had read the second post, where it was explained why RGB wouldn’t work (apologies meddington) -in this case- (so not necessarily an electronic display system anyway), he wouldn’t have made such an ill-informed comment, and not received the appropriate level of polite condescension, for which we must thank Brian.

That will be all.

Brian- Just because you -do- know doesn’t give you any more right to be a condescending twat.

A properly adjusted colour television should show a good blacl & white picture if the colour or saturation is turned down or a b&w show is on. If not the tv needs work.

Another fact: you can not get a true orange with RGB. It may look like it but it isn’t possible.

Still the pen is a great idea.
