Pumuckl is the mischievous red-haired kobold in Meister Eder und sein Pumuckl, the character and series associated with Bavarian writer Ellis Kaut. The German Patent and Trade Mark Office describes Pumuckl as a red-haired kobold and records his first radio-play appearance in 1962; the 1982 feature film and television adaptation followed later.
The color in this card comes from Toon Tone's current digital game reference for the hair, not from an official published HEX specification. At #E63112, the RGB channels are 230, 49, 18, while HSB is 9°, 92%, 90%. The hue is only 9° away from pure red, so “orange hair” is a useful starting description but a misleading final match.
That distinction matters for a color question. A screen reference can give a reproducible answer for this page and this game, while the character's artwork, editions, displays and production materials may vary. Use #E63112 as a digital starting point, not as a claim that every official Pumuckl image uses one immutable color formula.
Character background source: German Patent and Trade Mark Office — Pumuckl. The source describes Pumuckl as a red-haired kobold; the HEX value on this page is Toon Tone's clearly labelled game reference.
How to match Pumuckl's hair from memory
Tune the red-orange balance before chasing a perfect name for the color.
- Start near red: hue about 9°, not 30° orange.
- Keep saturation high at about 92%.
- Keep brightness high but below the ceiling at about 90%.
- If the result looks like carrot orange, pull the hue back toward red.
