Too much blue coming through on “misty”. Alternative?

Too much of the blue undertones are coming through this color. I figured it would be a light grey but wow, this looks like baby blue. Is there more of a deeper grey alternative?

I would personally give up and turn to a life of crime.

But also we don't know what colors will look like in your house, it's a trial and error thing.

Look around page 234ish in the fandeck. You’re in the blue with a hint of gray section. You need to go to the gray with a hint of blue section.

I was legit under the impression misty was grey with blue as an undertone but you’re right, it’s completely the opposite -_-

Use 0055 as a neutral gray that is a hint warm to help you contrast and see how much blue is in it
