Exact colors of Team Members?

Okay can anyone tell me the exact colors that the team members wear (got a project in mind but I need specific colours

G1 - white, red and Blue(navy?), visor - blue, cape blue/red

G2 - red, brown (blue/black)(some pictures show a violet colour, some look like a green color, visor violet/blue? cape blue/?

G3 - white , red, pink , visor - yellowis? cape white/red?

G4- yellow, red, blue, visor - violet? cape blue/green?

G5- brown, red, green (emerald or forest?), visor green cape green/red

red and yellow belts, visors

Does it differ from BOTP and Gatchaman?
Big thanks ,
the more I watch the episodes the more the colors seem to blend, and there seems to be a slight difference in some of the drawing I have googles, they give me basic colors , but not specific colors

Got me some Gatch-craft project on the boil

Since BotP is Gatch with crappy animation added, there are no differences in the colors between the shows.

(You can confirm all the colors with the screen-caps in the reviews.)

G1's cape is white with a red lining. His helmet is white with red and black markings. Blue-tinted visor.

G2's main outfit is a color I can't be sure of. His wings and boots are dark blue, and his helmet is black.

G3 wears a pink mini-dress and white boots, gloves, and helmet. Her cape is white with red lining. Yellowish tint to her visor.

G4 is a colorful little bugger. Yellowish outfit, with reddish boots and gloves. The cape's blue.

G5 has a weird hue for the boots and gloves. It's a green I can't identify. Brown main outfit, and green helmet and cape. His visor is blueish.

I'd say that the visor for Ryu and Joe are both a blue violet color. Jinpei's visor is a yellowish green.

Joe's bodysuit is a mix of brown and red...sort of maroon.

If you're using Photoshop, a good way to get the right colors is to open a screenshot and use the eyedropper icon to pick the correct color off of the screenshot. Then, you can use it for your picture.

I do that a lot when I'm not sure of the exact color.

I agree with Springie on the Condor's colors; his bodysuit is maroon and depending upon the lighting/background (or just how good the artist did coloring him) appears a little more brown or a little more red which makes it harder to pin down.

Hi all!

If you want to get technical, Joe's bodysuit is R5 if in the light and R16 if shadowed.

These numbers correspond to the paint color guide used by Japanese animation studios in the pre-computer coloring days, like this one here:

Studios would create color guides for their characters, designating what colors from that chart would be used for their characters in light and shadow, like this example for Joe:

Then the paint staff would simply grab a tube of the designated color of paint and use it when they were painting cels with that character.

Of course, how one exactly defines what color R5 or R16 should be called is much more subjective.

Something that can really confuse things is inking flubs. Transmute Jun and lborgia point out several in their Episode Reviews thread. The trickiest is that Joe's wings are supposed to be lighter than his cowl, but sometimes they are colored the same shade. Just be careful.

Thanks to James, now I know that Joe's wings are B6 (B7 in the shade) and his cowl, boots and gloves are B11 (B12 in the shade)!

Thanks for posting this James -it's neat to see how the artists' colour system worked.

Oh James...thanks for posting that! It's really neat to see what they were doing behind the scenes... Animeflower

I love getting background detail like that!

This is great information James. Does any one who uses Photoshop know if these numbers transfer across to that program?

The ink dropper idea Springie mentioned sounds the easiest way. to use the correct colours.

Big Thanks

It helps out greatly, as for the condor, cheeky little creature like to be different, I'll try to "wing" it from here, ha ha

Tatsunokofan -- that is so cool!

I've seen similar setups that Disney used, but never another animation. Amazing what they were able to do by hand...

James, thank you for posting that colour scheme.

Do you have the other characters shown that way as well? Or only the Condor?

I have the others. I only used Joe as an example because his uniform was being discussed.

We expect to see the finished project, LW. You've whetted our curiosity.

Will post some gatcha-craft I'm working on at the moment, probably within the next week, not sure how well they will look , put will post anyway.
would have done it sooner but my sister has a staffy pup who actually ate one of the pieces.
I seriously think this dog has an eating disorder, she must have something in her mouth at all times, it has serious reprocusions for anything that has stuffing in it, pillows, doonas, soft toys, in my case it was a paper mache mask

oh and I need to get some more resin, find my perspex sheets, dig out my fema and find my wires and metal springs (I have evil thoughts about 7-zark-7 and 1-rover-1 involving feathers and bird missiles, the question is can what is in my head be translated into 3D image without looking like a disaster)

Puppies go through the same stages as babies, and some go through an oral phase (some grow out of it, some don't).

Just make sure that dog understand No from you. Old enough to chew up stuff is old enough to train. (My neighbors have their dogs trained to a science. So I asked to be sure.)

The pup's eating disorder is called: being a puppy. At certain ages, they have to have something in their mouths at all times. If it isn't teething, it's just something that puppies have to do.

I know this from experience.
