Night colors ? YES!

Do whatever's easiest for you (re: spread out vs all at once). You da'man!

Is anyone aware of a computer program or online site where you can input a munsell code and get a guesstimated swatch up on screen corresponding to that value?

I imagine that the colors are close on the Kriegsmarineflugzeugstoff, but the sizes are different, the Painted is the larger of the two and the Printed is the smaller.
If you would be so kind as to provide the less skilled of us with both sizes (once they are approved), that would be great!

I went out to gather up some Duck Turd Brown/Green, but the shared space with our chickens, has I believe, compromised that research!
