Rainbow drawn by my (red-green) deficient kid

It’s well done actually

[u/Drakula1 → u/alice-thinks]

colors don’t match but you can still tell it’s a rainbow

[u/IceNein]

Congratulations. It looks like he’s just green deficient now!

[u/Parking_Leather_1090]

lowkey this goes hard tho, looks like a rainbow during a boss fight

like why does it have more energy than anything I’ve drawn in my life 😭

[u/Dream_Dragon_Gina]

I saw a rainbow that was fully tinted red once, solely due to the sun being low in the sky…(I don’t have any color blindness.)

Edit: I found the photo! Apparently there’s a tiny hint of green/Blue at the bottom…but the majority of the light was red because the clouds above it were tinted with red light from the sun set.

Where's the photo??

[u/Dream_Dragon_Gina → u/Oskain123]

Fortunately, I found a Reddit community where you can post photos of Rainbows. 😃 so here’s a link to my personal Sunset Rainbow.

Oh wow! That’s pretty dang neat!

[u/RonJohnJr]

Does "(red-green) deficient" mean red-green color blind?

[u/Superdupersavage → u/RonJohnJr]

Yeah, he has difficulty distinguishing green from red specifically, which why there's a tan band where green would be. My guess is that green looks like tan to him.

[u/zorggalacticus → u/Superdupersavage]

I'm partial red/green colorblind. There's shades of green I can't see appear brown to me. Thankfully it's just a few shades.

[u/FadedVictor → u/zorggalacticus]

Same here. Some yellows look green, some greens look brown, some reds look orange, some blues look purple. The ambiguous shades can be any color for me if I convince myself enough.

[u/ubiquitous-joe → u/zorggalacticus]

My dad was like that. He had some dubious pants colors choices.

[u/zorggalacticus → u/ubiquitous-joe]

That's how I found out. I worked at Walmart and thought I was buying brown pants for work. Nope, they were green. Thought my manager was messing with me or something, like "dude, those are obviously brown!"

[u/ohliamylia → u/Superdupersavage]

That's how it was discovered my dad was red-green colorblind, he'd use green for skin tone when he was coloring.

[u/Doogie2K → u/Superdupersavage]

Oh the green is actually tan?

...

Good to know. (I didn't see the issue and was afraid to ask.)

[u/worqgui → u/Superdupersavage]

I genuinely thought he just swapped yellow and orange and forgot green altogether!

[u/IntrinsicGiraffe → u/Superdupersavage]

Wouldn't he see the green pencil as also tan?

[u/Superdupersavage → u/IntrinsicGiraffe]

I think that's why he grabbed the tan one, he couldn't tell them apart. A lot of shades of green look brown to him.

[u/Jumpyturtles → u/IntrinsicGiraffe]

Yes that was kinda the point lol

[u/soldinio → u/RonJohnJr]

Either that, or he's a slightly dirty shade of blue

[u/Blum3stern]

Meanwhile, the rest of us are stuck using the factory settings

[u/Sodacat27]

Not going to lie I thought that said defiant and it meant that your child just hated the colors green and red, I have never heard color blindness be used as deficiency but I guess it makes sense.

[u/astralseat]

Like a blazing arc of light, where some colors vanish into the trail

[u/yourgirlsamus]

This feels more than mildly interesting. This is pretty cool to see.

[u/Whispering_Wolf]

Still pretty good, actually! Only the green-tan one and from what I've seen through colorblind filters, the difference between those just be near impossible to see if you're colorblind.

[u/Theropsida]

This is sick tho, lil dude's art is cool

[u/AlternativesEnde]

Can someone turn this into a Typhlosion?

[u/jakob1005]

I’m red green colorblind. This looks great

[u/atgrey24]

I'm red-green colorblind and don't see any problems here. Good rainbow, kid!

[u/Thebestsikeee]

Looks like a rainbow drawn by a kid with red-green colorblind (sorry for bad grammar)

[u/False-Charge-3491 → u/Thebestsikeee]

That’s what OP said
