You mentioned ‘Earth Blue’. There’s also ‘Earth Orange’ (and probably
other ‘Earths’). Does ‘Earth’ have any specific meaning? Darker? More

In the standard color wheel, pastels are achieved by adding white to a pure

think the old Kanohi list on BIONICLE.com listed “Earth Orange” as what we would
normally term “Brown”, and “Dark Orange” as one of the two very similar shades
that we’ve been calling “Earth Orange”.

Hey! We’ll have none of that here! ;P
