Let’s delve into how it works (this is extremely simple but powerful).

Step 1: Choose and input three colors into the Risograph Color Mixer template

Pick three colors you'd like to use in your work and feed them to the Risograph Color Mixer. Just double click on the layers titled Color 1, Color 2, and Color 3 in the layer panel and input your colors in the Color Picker Panel.

The mixer does limit you to three colors but with Risograph-style art this tends to be enough and, if not, you can use the mixer on more than one set of palettes.

Step 2: Generate the color combinations

As you add each color into the template you'll see them display on your canvas. As soon as you input the second color you'll begin to see the color combinations and interactions you're going to achieve with the Risograph Brush and Texture Kit.

Step 3: View and analyze the generated color combinations

That's it, behold the spectacle of 100 new color combinations! In just a few seconds you can see all of the hues, textures, and those minute imperfections that make Risograph prints uniquely captivating.

Step 4: Experiment with different color combinations

It never hurts to explore more than one set of color options. Go back to step one, shake things up with a different set of colors. Pay attention to the unique way the textures and imperfections of the inks play off each other. Consider how these might look in your finished work.

Step 5: Utilize the generated color combinations for your design

Now that you have a set of colors you love it's time to start implementing them in your work. Use the corresponding percentage brushes from the Risograph Brush and Texture Pack and start coloring your artwork.
