"Tints, tones, and shades are variations of the hues found on the basic color wheel when white, black or both are mixed in. To illustrate this, I painted a Tint, Tone and Shade color wheel using Liquitex Basics acrylic paint for each of the 6 primary and secondary colors."TINTSTints are created when you add white to any hue on the color wheel. This will lighten and desaturate the hue, making it less intense. Tints are often referred to as pastel colors, and many feel they are calmer, quieter colors. To make the tints below, I used equal parts white and the hue straight from the bottle. Again, the amounts needed will vary by manufacturer and paint variety, depending on the intensity of the pigment in a given paint.TONESTones are created when you add both black and white to a hue. You could also say grey has been added. Depending on the proportions of black, white and the original hue used, tones can be darker or lighter than the original hue, and will also appear less saturated or intense than the original hue. Tones can reveal subtle and complex qualities in a hue or combination of hues, and are more true to the way we see colors in the real world.SOURCEhttps://www.craftsy.com/blog/2013/05/hues-tints-tones-and-shades/

A tint is like when you grab a tissue and you use it for your colored pencil to help shade it so then it doesn't look all chalky that is tinting.A shade of a color is basically different shades of that same color.

Heyy!!The difference between them is that they each give off a different afect on the art work you are doing. shadeing can make something lighter or darker, tints can just put a mark in something, and tones can give something more color or make different shapes. I Hope this helps!!!

Tint is the addition of white to a color to add highlights, and shade is adding black to a color to add shade.

Tones. So, white makes tints and black makes shades. ... Adding grey to a hue, which is a mixture of both black and white, creates a tone. Tones of hues tend to be closer in color to the original hue than tints or shades, but are much less vibrant that it.
