There's an octarine?The Colours of Magic
I don't keep track of when they repeat, only when they first appear, although I do have complete lists for every week.Anybody know how many Paints there were in the Mileage Exchange during the first three weeks after Release ?
And, how many have actually been repeated since ?
There's an octarine?
Octarine, also known as the Colour of Magic or the King Colour, was the eighth colour of the Discworld spectrum. It was visible only to wizards and cats. It is generally described as a sort of greenish purple colour.
I don't keep track of when they repeat, only when they first appear, although I do have complete lists for every week.
And it was 21. The pre-release week (starting October 10th) didn't change until the week after the international launch (October 17th), so it continued through to October 24th:

To me the difference from those pics looks like the left is a matte metallic and the right is more of a gloss metallic.EDIT: Loaded that pick into photoshop. Only difference is the shading round the top bolts & the rim is darker on the right.
The difference is extremely subtle but it's there...
