I'm a chemistry student, I need to be able to tell which color the solution has taken on.
As for amateur GD, I usually work in black n white. Sometimes shades of red and blue.
Making something brown will fail horribly.

You mix orange with blue, or red with green, or purple with yellow.
I have no idea why brown isnt just black mixed with red but i have no concept of colors, i see mostly saturation instead of a color of a color, if that makes any sense.
I think there is an app that can show you the RGB or CMYK values. Once you learn which mixture of which values (basic clolors) give which colors, its easy to know color.

sounds rough anon.
however, i think the fact that print is very formulamatic is in your favor. Its really about knowing your numbers and what colors they produce.

not sure how legit these are for accurate color, but might help.

Also, most android phones can simulate colorblindness, which is neat.
Isn't brown just very dark yellowish/orange?

Less green?
So weird, I'm pretty confident I don't see enough red.
Gray can look green, and in reverse. Brown can look green, and in reverse.
Red can look green, but I don't think I see green as red. Purple n blue, same story.

And it makes sense, less red means less distinction between these colors.
