I went into photoshop and selected the Info window.
Here I can view the CMYK colors of a particular spot or pixel
and it will determine what percentage of each color is showing.
From this I can create the same color on my palette and use it as a wash on the helmet.
Well I come close to that color
The lighting in my studio plays a bit of a role in whether I create the right colors.
This process really helps me to get as correct with my colors as possible.
