Richard schmid uses a wide palette and you're just some faggot from /ic/, so guess who I'm gonna listen to.

Guess what, pigments are minerals that reflect a certain color. If you want to reproduce a certain color, you need a specific combination of pigments that will achieve that color.

No amount of mixing will produce colors out of thin air. And guess what, mixing white and black don't add intensity to color, on the contrary, they wash colors out.
And 14 is just the minimum. You need three pigments for all seven colors: warm, neutral and cool to achieve full range.
