About Blue Jay
Blue Jay is one of Toon Tone's 15 original animals. The fill color sits at hue 210°, saturation 68%, brightness 82% — a blue tone that is easy to misjudge under different screen lighting. What makes this character matter for color training is not just the HSB value, but the gap between what you remember after the preview and what your slider actually produces. Use this round as a baseline, then test it on the harder hues.
Tips for Blue Jay
- Hue
Blue darkens faster than other hues at lower brightness. Add 5% brightness if your guess reads as navy instead of bright.
- Saturation
High saturation reads as vivid. If your guess looks chalky after submit, your slider was probably under 70%.
- Brightness
Bright colors expand visually — your slider at 80 will feel more saturated than the actual target color does.
- Field note
Real fur and feathers are never one solid color. The target here is the dominant tone — ignore the highlight and shadow shifts.
