All of you guys have seen those inaccurate Titanic paintings with mustard yellow colored funnels. Guess what? WRONG. They weren't mustard colored. Just imagine how ugly that would be. I mean, really. So, what color were they? We will never know. But let's take some guesses. The first guess is the color of the Nomadic's funnels. Now, the Nomadic is the only remaining White Star Line ship remaining. The funnel color on the Nomadic is a really light yellowish/tan. Mostly tan. Now, you may be going "THAT IS WHITE STAR BUFF IT'S ORIGINAL!!!" Well, sure you may be right that it's original, but it has been restored of course. I mean, the ship was built in 1911. So, when we repainted it we might have done it wrong. James Cameron's Titanic movie shows the funnels with a color similar to the Nomadic's. Another depiction of White Star Buff is a really light tan. I seriously doubt this color, it just doesn't make sense to me. Another depiction of White Star Buff is orange and yellow mixed together. I personally like this color, and the Titanic Exhibit agreed this is the best we can get. So, what depiction of White Star Buff do you think is the most accurate? Nomadic Style, James Cameron Style, Really Lame Mustard Color Style, Tan Style, Or Orange And Yellowish Style?
