Hi I have been trying to get a better idea of the colors used on the German 5 color Lozenge pattern. One problem is that the colors are usualy described with Munsell color numbers and *I don't have a book, or set of swatches for this color system. I decided to search the web for info on the Munsell color system and found this converter. You plug in the Munsel # and it gives you a screen display and the equivalent RGB and CMYK values. I have just started to play with it, and I have begun to understand the meaning of these rather odd looking values - 10G/Y 4/2????

First number is hue then value/Chroma Value=darkness, Chroma=saturation Or, at least that's my understanding so far I was wondering if somebody who has access to Munsell color swatches could give this utility a little test. Standard qualifyer: All monitors and printers are different, so any judgement as to color accuracy will be approximate at best * Here's the link: It downloads a self extracting executable oh yea - it's free!!

Now I'm scanning back through old posts trying to find all the Munsell color refernces *;D Mark. Quote: Many thanks for posting the link. Wordperfect Calendar Templates. I've been trying to get hold of a copy of the Methuen standards for a l-o-n-g time. (8:¬)} Simba. Simba I don't know if it makes a difference - but this utility deals with Munsell color numbers. I'm not sure, but I think the Methuen standard is different. Anybody who can clarify this, please feel free to do so I ran a test on some Munsell values for the German 5 color lozenge scheme.

Results are in the form of a 90k.jpg file. If anybody is interested in seeing it, contact me and I will be happy to e-mail it to you.

Anybody who can clarify this, please feel free to do so.: As far as I know, the Munsell system is a real scientific color notation system.

I don't believe this is true of the Methuen 'ssytem.' From the little I have been able to gather, the latter which appears to have been an attempt at a compendium of colors for commercial/industrial purposes--paint manufacturers and the like. More comprehensive than the FS listing perphaps, but not a system per se. I would appreciate more information from someone better informed on this subject. Nonetheless, I think the use of the Methuen descriptors has been rather less than more helpful in the field of WWI aviation archaelogy, and it would have been better to have standardized on Munsell notation, or to have made use more widely available swatch collections such as Pantone. The latter has the advantange of translating across the real-world and virtual domains.

VBR to all, Stefen. Hi Ever since I found that Munsell converter I’ve been on a quest to get some kind of idea what the “right” colors are for the 5 color lozenge scheme. I have Munsell numbers from NASM, the German Museum (thanks Hans) and the ones from the datafiles (posted on the site) – I ran them through the converter and took the RGB values and plugged them into PhotoShop and generated color images for the top and bottom schemes. I’m sorry to say *– they are all VERY different – and I can detect almost no commonality, which would at least point in the right direction.:'( So – I took a different approach and generated color swatches based on some photos and scans I have. For one set of colors I used Hans’s Halberstadt photos which are posted on the WW1 modelers site.

Good news is that they are a fairly close match to the Munsell colors from the German Museum, which I believe were taken off the same AC in the photos. Not a perfect match but at least the basic hues and value structure is similar – which leads me to believe that the converter might be giving good values. But, still the colors from the different samples are all over the place. So I decided to forget the hues and just try to verify the values – which color are darker and which lighter. I have an original photograph of the Albatros Dva with the “Blitz” markings. It has nosed over and the left wing is a little crumpled – but you get a clear – well-lit view of the upper lozenge scheme. I scanned the photo and eliminated everything but the wing and then twitched it into something close to a planar view so I could get a good look at the lozenge.
