Let me know if any of those are way off, if you have other colors to

I'd ask around in the .cad.dev group -- there are a couple of pretty good
lists already for various utilities.  A couple that stand out in your list
about as being "off" are:

- Blue -- LEGO blue is darker, greener, and grayer than 0,0,x
- Yellow -- LEGO yellow is oranger than x,x,0
- Dark Gray -- LEGO dark gray is redder/yellower/warmer than x,x,x -- i.e.,
  it's not a pure gray
- Green -- LEGO green is bluer and grayer than 0,x,0

Have fun!  (And keep in mind that monitor gammas vary!  :)
