Kasane no irome #1

From the overwhelming ability to express colors, I decided to use the latest LED to reproduce the dyeing that has existed since ancient times in Japan. The mechanism of the color of light and the color of dyeing are fundamentally different, so that is just a simulation. The color is decided by referring to the book by Mr. Seiki Nagasaki.

Let’s go from red for the first time.
