it makes a new color
It makes natural grey.
The original complementary color model only saw colors in primary and secondary pairs such as red-green, yellow-violet, and blue-orange. In the newer RGB model, complementary colors that are mixed at the right amounts will produce either black or white.
When two complementary colors are set next to each other they look brighter. This happens because of the contrast; neither color has any pigments in common with the other. If they are mixed together, however, they seem duller.
Complementary colors do neutralize when combined. When you mix two colors across the color wheel they mix to make brown. It is difficult to determine which two complementary colors make up a very even brown.
Brown... those two colors mixed together don't make a normal color like yellow and blue, which makes green. This probably happens because yellow and purple are almost opposite each other on the color wheel, and are nearly complementary. Complementary colors always mix to an ugly, neutral brown-gray hue.

Complementary colors are opposite each other on the color wheel. When you mix two complementary colors you get brown. If you are painting a shadow you use the complement of the color the shadow falls on.
The color brown occurs when the 3 primary colors overlap. Color theory teaches that mixing a primary color and its complementary secondary color will make brown. This works because the complementary secondary color contains the other two primary colors.
Complementary colors are colors that make one another look good. For example, red looks good with green. When used together, they create a better piece of art. On the other hand, orange and blue are non-complementary colors. If they are used together, they do not look as good as the complementary colors.
Two colours are complementary if lights of those colours add to make pure white light. Complementary colours are not the same as complementary pigments (or paints).
blue Actually its purple. If you look at the color wheel for primary colors it is always the color that is mixed by the other two primary colors. For example for red its green (blue and yellow) for blue its orange (red and yellow). So the complementary color for yellow is purple (red and blue).
Opposite colors are actually complementary colors.These are the pair of colors which are of opposite hue in the color model.According to the color theory. Two colors are said to be complementary if they produce a neutral color such as black, white or grey.
Take one set of complementary colors; say blue and orange. For a single split-complementary you would use orange and the two colors adjacent to blue, but not blue (green-blue and violet-blue). To make a double split-complementary use the four colors adjacent to the original complementary pair. The colors you would use are green-blue, violet-blue, yellow-orange, and red-orange. THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS A TETRADIC COLOR SCHEME WHICH USES TWO SETS OF COMPLEMENTARY COLORS.
