the kink to this, if you use a blue that is on the green side, or a red that is on the green side,, you will get mud, you need a blue that is red tint, and a red that is blue tint,,
this wont make much sense unless you see an actual color bank in a paint store,, there are probably 6 blues,, and the same or more reds,, but the basic idea is, get the cleanest red and cleanest blue you can, bright crisp color, and start from there,, might need a touch of yellow to kill the purple tinge, ,but its all in what you want
