BOYS WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE.

>>2365005
any links for where I can get this book pl0x? and perhaps links pointing to some further reading on using munsell colors, aside from wikipedia

bretty gud

>>2365005
uh, photoshop, everyone works with sliders, and its 16bit, adobe rgb, or lab if your monitor can go the distance.

I don´t know if i missed something on your post.

>>2365005

what the fucking hell are you smoking.

>>2365083
>lab if your monitor can go the distance
care to explain? how is it taxing on your monitor in any way, shape or form?

>>2365125
normal monitors dont cover more than 60% adobe rgb. so you are missing 40% colors when your paint.
but its still good for avoiding certain color artifacts.

You can buy the bfull atlas online for 1050$ or use a reproduction, bearing in mind that the gamut of your display will not show 5Y over 16 chroma. There's an android app. Just read the atlas and play with the nspace, read Ittens the elements of color instead.

Here's a 3d view of the nmodel.

Really, really cool concept. I was always affraid of loosing value control hence I never render in color, but just with value. Need to google moar. Pic unrelated.

Great!

>>2365294
Thanks for the resources, shame the first set of swatches are kill. But that second link is ducking perfect. Thanks for digging that up!

I'm going to find a few hours to see if I can rip out the hex vals from those pages. Maybe at the least I can rig up some applescript jazz to handle conversion back and forth. As greasy as that is

Why is R across bfrom BG, dropped.

Alright, got some jazz done in a hour. Turns out there's a big excel sheet with some sRGB vals in it and the hex codes (for what fits in the sRGB gamut, the GB hues are lacking AF), transformed the data into text, json'd it, threw it into a go program and boom. Half working.

So this will convert Munsell colours to RGB, but it's hit and miss. If a colour is outside the gamut, or not exactly specified it errors out. Next step is to make a distance function that can select the nearest Munsell colour for a given hex val. Shouldn't be too hard.

This jazz is meant to live in a pipeline, hence it reads from Stdin/Stdout. So This can be bound to a hotkey that calls a applescript on some macro passing along highlighted text, instantly replacing it with Munsell vals, and then converted back to Hex.

I'll finish this tomorrow. Took about an hour. I remember why I paint instead of program now lol.

You could just download the W&N or Copic chart and use a traditional workflow.
Then again, PS is shit at blending colors, and this is just one more autistic excuse not to produce finished art "yet".

>>2367248
I work only trad bro. Using a different chart misses the entire point of the system.

>Why the fuck are we using a uniform space for colour reference that holds no value for design and creation?

it's easier. and the results are *good enough* most of the time

Made a repo. Fixed it up such that any sRGB value will be converted to Munsell vals, and the likewise.

Need to fucking integrate this into Applescript, any goons good with that shit?

I already had no idea what was going on here >>2366887
So all I can do is say thank you, and wait for some anon to step in and help with whatever you're asking for.

Bumping, we don't want this one to dissapear.

>>2365005
Tl dr pls

Retard here, what is the point of learning this?

OP contact arne on wayofthepixel.net about this he does this kind of thing, build programs which show palletes and shit. He even averaged the internet images colors to find an ideal pallete. There was lots of flesh colors because of all the porn.

>>2369968
Easier way to render and design in color, provided you know how value and greyscale works/are not a complete ass-backwards beginner.

It seems like a much more efficient way of organizing colors

So I just finished it up, there are a few bugs but it works! Right now the limiting factor is how small the sRGB gamut is compared to what the Munsell system encompasses.

Here's a demo, posted it to Github. Someone install this and let me know how it goes.

krita allows you to choose HSY or HSY' colorpickers, or to create your own one by punching in a few values.

>>2370359
thanks man

reading some literature on Munsell, he seems to be particularly obsessed with the precise notation of colors, however I'm finding very little info on how Munsell's notation can help me mix colors better or create more aesthetically pleasing color choices in my paintings.

Is there nothing new that munsell's system can offer me aside from a more honest representation of how our eyes perceive color?

On a side note, it's somewhat disappointing that Gurney used pic related on his blog to show what Munsell's system is like. It's misleading to put a high value Y on what seems to be a low or mid value slice.

I have no fucking idea what you guys are talking about since I still work in grayscale learning form, perspective and stuff

should I save anything from here in a folder for when I will decide to go into color?

its no more than a tool used to find colours in the colour space after mixing. the 'how' of colour mixing is a fundamental skill you can use with any rendition of the colour space (i.e. color wheels etc), the munsell notation just happens to be the more precise tool

color mixing: http://www.huevaluechroma.com/011.php
unfortunately i have still to read the remaining 80% of this website so i dont know much myself

>>2373726
It's useless for mixing, that comes down to knowing your medium. It's excellent for colour reference and harmony.

Elements of Colour by Itten, give it a read. He gets all floaty with harmonies and contrasts. You can pick Munsell colours and using his theory.

>>2365143
60-70% is the norm, i don't know if 10bit color is required for adobe rgb but 10 bit goes from 16 million colors to 1.6 billion or something along those lines.
