Hey guys, I'm just starting to learn portrait painting in photoshop, but noticed something off with my monitors when I pulled up my reference picture...Has anyone seen house of cards and know if the greenish tint on the left is an accurate representation of the show? I dont know which monitor to trust anymore. The one of the left is about 5 years newer but in terms of real life the one on the right looks more correct. Its thrown my confidence Im going to be painting any of the right colors on my laptop (new monitor) just in general at this point. Any input would be great if you have had similar issues.

The greys on your left monitor are yellow. Stands to reason your monitor is yellow. That said, every monitor is different, it's hard to make something that will be accurate, let alone suit any monitor it's brought up on.

I think it's safe to say neither of your monitors are right, and it's probably originally somewhere in between. Don't worry, this drives me crazy too, OP.
