Kung Fu paint chips

Ben and I were at the paint store yesterday choosing a color for the house exterior. We seem to have settled on 'lunar landing' which is a medium greenish gray (Siwaraya are you happy now?) I was throwing paint chips like shuriken stars into Ben's throat and got the idea that it would be a nice film sequence. This would be less like Gambit or Thurston (the magician who was said to be able to throw a card from the stage to the back of an auditorium) and more about color. Different color combinations would lead to different results—sort of like combat synethesia. So there would be a showdown between the guy who throws RGB primaries, the guy who throws CMY primaries and the guy who throws Bauhaus red/yellow/blue primaries. Who would win?
