Hi Nick,

Mines is the same. The colour is correct it is a more orangy brown.

Have a look at the Victory website at www.hms-victory.com hopefully this will put your mind at rest,

Thanks

Hence why its called yellow ochre which is a mustard shade and is correct for how Victory currently looks, its certainly not/never has been a bright yellow.
