I want some color combinations for mixing colors, i.e., what quantity of "Red,Green or Blue" or "Red,Yellow or Blue" yields what kind of color?
Is there any link which can help?

These wheels even help you for mixing colors. Not just Tint, shade, etc..

I haven't a website but from personal experience the best way is to have a go yourself. It's hard to say more without knowing why you need to mix colours, but just keep in mind that as long as you have red, blue, yellow, black and white you can make any other colour in the world.

Answer 3

I find mixing and experimenting works best. you can make so many different colors with just a few paints. I usually only have 10 base colors on hand and all my paintings come out in amazing colors by the way ive just mixed 2,3 sometimes 4 or 5 different colors. Always a good thing is your primary colors, white and black. that way you can lighten, darken, brighten whatever you want!

Answer 4

If you mix Red and Yellow together you make Orange
If you mix blue and yellow together you make Green
If you mix red and blue together you make purple.
if you mix orange and green together you get brown.

Answer 5

www.pantone.com is a good one. It's the art industries standard for color combination. It remains the same universally. If you use pantone color in a piece it will be the same everywhere.
