Hi everyone,
Part of my real work involves worrying about color matching for print and
screen. My company recently bought a Pantone Color Cue device which does
exact color matching by simply placing the device over the item to match and
press the button.
I thought it would be interesting to measure the color values of each color
Lego bricks in my collection and so that's exactly what I did!
You can find the results of my playing on my new color guide page at;
http://www.britdogmodels.com/Misc/LegoColors/default.aspx
Colors are given in Pantone coated, HTML, RGB and CMYK.
There were a few surprises along the way, the biggest one being that Lego
white isn't actually pure white, but has a 6% black tint.
You can use the information on this page for anything you like - if you have
your own color guide then you are more than welcome to add the color values
I have identified to it.
Hope you find it useful!
Richard.
