Keep in mind there is additive (light) and subtractive (surfaces) color mixing. They have different primaries, and different color mixing results. And of course, color perception depends on the visual system of Klingons, or whomever it is, and color cannot be accurately described except by reference to a colored object.

I understand the logic now... but I have difficulty to agree with it. So my problem is that brown is seen as if it were a color on the spectrum... But I would approximate a brown by desaturating an orange, and darkening it. Or, if you want, mix red and green, and you get some kind of brown. It looks like Klingon vision has a different physiology. Evidently they have a more accurate representation of light on the red part of the spectrum. Maybe they can see infrared (that we call brown) too. On Sat, Feb 16, 2019 at 3:32 PM Lieven L. Litaer <levinius@gmx.de> wrote:

If you can't get the link to work, I think someone has a copy of it on one of the Klingon database type websites, but I am not at home, so I don't have all my links.
Okay, I took that as a permission or a suggestion and uploaded your scale to the page at the Klingon wiki: http://www.klingonwiki.net/En/Colors
If anyone likes to archive the pure image link, it's this: http://www.klingonwiki.net/pub/Main/Images/colors.png
