Fake Discussion : Red is the most superior color of the spectrum!

On the contrary, most shades of pink are red with hints of white added to it to soften and lighten the color. Violet makes the red darker due to the blue in it, making reds become scarlet and crimson and other colors but not pinkish.
LTK:
I think that depends on whether you're mixing pigments, or light.

True...most people would know it by pigments not by light so I stand by what I said
Loki:
Yes, they could tell from some of the pigments and from having seen quite a lot of pictures in their life.

Not sure I'll use a lot of red though, I subconsciously steer away from that colour for some reason.

I generally do too. Pink is fair game but red is used sparingly. Like Linds, I'm partial to blue-greens. Unlike Linds, I also enjoy orange :-P
I know they tell us to avoid it like the plague in art school but I love me a thick and juicy black outline.
