This is about "printing" isn't it? I guess 3D modelling should have spectral qualities - but Pantone is made for spot colouring in print and paint.

It use to be and still is to a certain degree but Pantone has been trying to move digital and make consistent colors when printing 4 color. All the old books have ink formulas for spot colors which have limited uses these days. The new books ditch the formulas and give RGB, CMYK and html for each swatch.

Except the parent talked about reflections and other frequencies of light. Do we need a next gen colourspace (materialspace?)
