1:36 Drawings - Colours
These are the colours used in the 1:36 drawings. More will be
added as painted drawings are created.
These are not official colour codes—they are based on what I have observed in photos. RGB values are often rounded off to the nearest multiple of 2 or 4 as a result of the conversion of the drawings to GIF files.
