Re: Galpin Pink Bird

Of all the colors in all the world .... Black is the abscence of all color so perfect for a car that shines on it's own merit and needs no colorful enhancement, and besides they are faster ...

Vary Well Spoken......................lol :0)

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

According to my senior high school art teacher black and white are non colors. They are shades, I think. They are both lack of color. Neither are primary colors.

MY INFORMATION WAS BASED ON COLLEGE PHYSICS. SO LONG AGO, I MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN.

Ron google it. That's what I found after my post was made just to be sure I knew what I was talking about.

They did about 10 cars including a 2002 Vintage Mint green one. I saw that one in their showroom back in early 2002 several years before Ford came out with that color. Galpin called it Meadow Mint.

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

An object whose surface reflects back most of the light it receives and does not alter its color will appear white, ALSO: If objects scatter all wavelengths, they appear white. If they absorb all wavelengths, they appear black. THIS IS FROM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color

WHO KNEW I COULD REMEMBER SOMETHING FROM THAT LONG AGO.

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

I know Galpin also painted a periwinkle/lavender bird. Now *that* would be the bird for me. The pink ones reminds me of Mary Kay too much!

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

Dear Students .. color depends on what we are talking about here.
When explaining light (roybgiv -- red, orange, yellow, blue, green, violet) the combination of all those colors (reflection if you will, since nothing has color in the abscence of light) is white. The absorption of roybgiv shows as a black surface. black surfaces are warmer then white surfaces, absorbtion vs reflection. black snow would melt.
paint is another thing totaly because paint provides a surface for light to reflect from. Red,yellow and blue are the primary colors because theoretically (no primarys actually do this) the mixing of these three colors in various proportions will make all the visible colors of the "rainbow". Mixing the three together in equel proportions would result in Black. The absence of color in the case of paint would be white. Painters refer to hues as different colors, crimson, magenta, rose are hues of red. Shades are colors with the addition of white or black paint. Pink and maroon are shades of red. Many artists disavow black and consider shades only made with the addition of white. Black has an undesirable effect of muddying colors.
Now printing is done with magenta (red hue), yellow and cyan (blue hue) because they are closer to real primarys then RBY. You also need black ink and white paper. Better printers have hues of the hues as in light magenta and light cyan and many more. Whew!

A LIGHT (RAY) HAS EVERY COLOR IN THE RAINBOW IN IT AND APPEARS WHITE. INSIDE A CAVE THERE IS NO LIGHT (RAY) AND IT IS BLACK.

A WHITE OBJECT HAS NO COLOR, A BLACK OBJECT HAS ALL COLORS. WHITE OBJECTS REFLECT BACK ALL THE COLORS IN A LIGHT RAY AND BLACK OBJECTS ABSORB ALL THE LIGHT RAY. THE LIGHT RAYS THE EYE SEES IS THE ACTUAL COLOR OF THE OBJECT BEING REFLECTED BACK, ALL OTHER RAYS ARE ABSORBED. ALL OF THE LIGHT RAY IS COMING BACK FROM A WHITE OBJECT, ONLY THE RED RAYS ARE COMING BACK FROM A RED OBJECT, AND NO RAYS ARE COMING BACK FROM A BLACK OBJECT.
THAT'S WHAT I LOVE ABOUT MY WHITE CAR AND MY BLACK CAR.

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

Here's another one made by Galpin...I think it was called "Meadow Mist"...Although they remind me of the '04 Vintage Mint Green cars, they were actually produced two years earlier on '02's...

Re: Galpin Pink Bird

That's the one John! Right in the middle...I looked all over the 'net and couldn't find it.

Thanks big guy!

What do you think the 'Spectra-bird' looks like? Sounds like those cars that kinda look like a hologram.

Thanks to you also, Claude!
