When I said the painting guide was a work in progress, I meant it . . .
Painting Theory
To mix a paint, you'll need access to a Pigment Laboratory and a variety of ingredients to make the colors.
When you complete a paint, its named color will be based on what idealized color the paint's real RGB colors are the closest match to.
Ingredients are divided into two general classes, bases and catalysts.
Base Ingredients
A base is an ingredient which lends its RGB values directly to the color of the final product. When you add a base ingredient to the lab, it creates a weighted average of RGB values with the other ingredients in the lab. In addition, a reaction might occur which will alter the final RGB value. Each base ingredient you add increases the concentration of the paint by one, and you cannot complete the paint until you increase the paint's concentration to at least 10. You can however continue adding ingredients beyond 10.
Catalysts
A catalyst does not modify the color value directly, but does cause reactions. Adding a catalyst does not increase the paint's concentration.
Reactions
When you combine certain ingredients into the paint mixer, a reaction can happen. Reactions affect the paints final value after the weighted average of base ingredients has been calculated. Reactions can affect Red values (R), Green values (G), Blue values (B), or all three values equally (W).
Reactions are additive, so if you have 1 reaction which increases the Green value by 12 and a second reaction that increases the Green value by 23, the total reaction will be 35G. If a reaction increases the Green value by 12 and lowers the White value by 18, the net effect will be -18R -6G -18B.
