Simmers Paint Shop Color Chips                 6/29/2025

With the loss of Simmers Paint Shop, a lot of fantastic information has been lost forever for those texture artists that like the ability to fully match the proper colors for any and (mostly) all eras and countries. 
Listed are not only the color chips, the the R/G/B and Hex values to (re)create them in your own image manipulation programs (GIMP, Photoshop, Paint.net, etc) These are given the US Federal Standard, and for Luftwaffe, the RLM converted to FS coding.

I don't remember when I found these, but here they are. Included are the original png format images, and I've converted them to jpgs for easier viewing with various and sundry programs.
Be advised, the images are QUITE large, so you'll need to zoom in on them.

Included herein are chips for:
Japan - IJN, IJAAF, JASDF
Germany - Luftwaffe RLM/RAL
UK - RAF British Standard
Russia/Soviet Union - VVS colorlist
USA - USAF, USN, US Army

I hope you enjoy these, and make good use of them!!! Even though I uploaded to the SF2 category, these are usefull for any and all games or what-have-yous that you'd like to use them for!! :)
