The Colours of Japan

Postby Mulboyne » Sun Sep 02, 2007 11:05 am

Sakura Craypas has released a new series of crayons where the colours are based on distinctive features of cities in Japan. For instance, the Tokyo series includes "Shibuya Centre Gai Dyed-Hair Brown". The company has mostly elected to avoid controversy so you have names like "Clouds of Tokyo Tower White" rather than "Yamanote Salaryman Drunk Face Red". There's still a gap in the market then.

'Drunk Faced Yellow Man' would've been a cool color.. Kind of goes with the green/blue confusion the Japanese seem to have.. ;)

Nice..

I think 'Wet Summer Concrete' is my favorite.. Of course, 'Spoiled Dog Piss Asphalt' is a close second.. Then, 'Roppongi Sidewalk Vomit'..
