    Creating a minimalistic LUT or similar

    Hi, TLDR; How can I create a LUT for Photoshop of just 22 colors? Or something similar in Affinity Photo? I'm creating a portret, using 20 x 28 = 560 plastic bottle caps for 'pixels'. Because I knew that subtle colours would be hard to find, I made a photo with bright blue, red and green...
