Subtractive

Whereas with pigment adding primaries together have the opposite effect, that is why it is referred to as subtractive color and light is referred to as additive color. ❋ James Gurney (2010)

This might also be called a subtractive model, and Wittgenstein captures this perfectly with a question: ❋ Hagberg, Garry (2007)

These are called subtractive colours, which are comprised of the wheel that we're likely all used to (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple). ❋ Unknown (2010)

Its three color emulsion layers (with filter layers built in) and the complex "subtractive" process required to produce the image was ideal for dye-transfers. ❋ Unknown (2009)

It's a kind of subtractive masculinity, where the only qualities that make a guy a Real Man are ones women do not display. ❋ Doctor Science (2007)

Almost every Muslim demand is culturally destructive and 'subtractive' rather than 'additive'. ❋ Unknown (2009)

A complex multilayer the substrate is immersed in an etching chem - The PCB-manufacturing process has PCB might have both blind vias (which ical, the excess copper is removed and only changed relatively little since then, are visible on only one side of the fi nished the desired circuit pattern remains. although three "subtractive" processes board) and buried vias (which aren't visible The problem with Eisler's idea was that have evolved to remove the copper to at all when the board is assembled). ❋ Vbdotnetnrew (2010)

The way people approach seemingly small disagreements about food reveals a lot about the way they approach life, and whether they're additive or subtractive thinkers. ❋ Lisa Earle McLeod (2011)

In general, I'm an additive writer rather than a subtractive one -- I write short, and then have to go back and fill in the holes and expand stuff and let white space in. ❋ Stillsostrange (2009)

If you're reeling at the horror of Shellie offering to bring marshmallow-less sweet potatoes to a holiday dinner, it might be a sign that you could be a bit more subtractive in your own thinking. ❋ Lisa Earle McLeod (2011)

It should, at the least, be additive, not subtractive. ❋ SVGL (2009)

I have a particular interest in the fluid nature of time, and the way travel, queuing, and even routing can play additive and subtractive games with this. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Interestingly enough, I was surprised that carving, which is a subtractive art, taught me how to be an efficient writer. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Another example of how subtractive thinking puts a barrier between you and other people. ❋ Lisa Earle McLeod (2011)

When you mix all additive colors together (mix light together), you will end up with white; when you mix all subtractive colors together, you get ... well, a dull grey - but in theory, you'll end up with black. ❋ Heather McDougal (2009)

Mixing pigments is subtractive color - you start with a white reflective surface and add things which absorb some of the light (subtract it), changing what is reflected, in order to make color. ❋ Heather McDougal (2009)
