With the variety of monitors and graphics cards out there, I’d be surprised if we could find 2 pc's which would display the same colours in an identical image.
Also I would think that the colours of the landscape would change during the duration of the campaign. What do people want modelled? The vegetation slowly changing from day one of the campaign until its climax? Not to mention that we probably don't have any baseline data of the exact colours anyway, what with the degradation of the nitrocellulose based films of the time!

Thats a good point but what is important is to get the baseline colours as close as we can to the real world, if you just look at the hundreds of pictures of the English countryside online, you will find none that show the mix of fields and colour types in the latest updates, i know...i spent hours looking for them, you will find 99% are much closer to the pics i posted.
I live in southen England and i know what i see with my own eyes, i dont need to look at pictures or films or other sims landscapes to tell me what the colours of the countryside are where i live.

we all know the rest of SOW will be fantastic, but this is the one aspect of the updates that is just not correct, and im just trying to help(in a small way).
we still have quite a way to go, and everything we know is WIP and the landscape will be tweaked and tweaked untill it goes gold, im just trying to nudge Oleg in the right direction.
