Sack Cloth & Ashes Department ~ Thorpe Colour Table Addendum



Thanks to a correspondent for kindly drawing my attention to a transcription error in the Thorpe Colour Table pdf. The Munsell & sRGB values for Navy medium brown N11 had been incorrectly duplicated as those for Army medium brown A12! The correct Munsell value for A12 should be 10 R 3/4 (sRGB 105/60/52) as shown above, together with the closest FS 10075 (but not very close @ 4.73) and N11 for comparison.

The colour is a slightly more reddish brown. Sincere apologies to those who already have the table and may have been puzzled that N11 and A12 appeared identical - or even worse, those who have already used the colour on that 1st Sentai Hayabusa model (and don't forget that those elevators are blue too)! 

Please amend your records accordingly, thanks!
