Hey guys. If you're getting ready to paint a big army and you want to do a great job blending your highlights, I recommend taking this quiz first.
http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?pageid=77&lang=en
It's a test to see how well you can discriminate hues.
I've been painting Space Wolves for 15 years, but this test has just shown me that the range of "baby blue" hues is where I have the worst color discrimination. Now I know why I go blind after blending highlights.

Thanks for that.
93%, also lacking in the blues (that bar was freakin' tough).
Useful tool.

Why is it that only those who have never fought in a battle are so eager to be in one? |

I got a 15 on my computer at work, I bet I could score way higher with a much better monitor than this PoS. I'll try again when I get home but that was interesting for sure!
