like if you wanted to mix paint to get a color from a computer would you do the opposite of what the RGB value is? I’m confused

like if I wanted to take the RBG code R:99, G: 66, B, 33 wouldn’t it look more lightful than if I mixed paint into 1 part blue, 2 part green, 3 part red? how would you paint a color code?

    I think the simplest way to explain it is:

    • colours in a computer work by adding light. Add enough light wavelengths makes white.
    • colours in paint work by taking colours out of the light it is reflecting. Take enough light wavelengths out and you get black
