Peaceable Bishops on a 10x10 grid version 2

Question

Can you place 42 bishops with 6 bishops for each of the 7 colors on a 10x10 grid, such that no two bishops of different colors attack each other?

Here are some similar questions:

I sure hope you aren't going to do this with every possible grid size... — Quintec, Nov 26 '19 at 01:10
I think this one is too easy, finding the solution with almost no effort. — Daniel Mathias, Nov 26 '19 at 01:16
Thank you Daniel. You are right it was probably too easy. So I modified the problem. — Dmitry Kamenetsky, Nov 26 '19 at 01:19
@RewanDemontay perhaps a 2x2x2x2x2x2 grid would be interesting ;) — Dmitry Kamenetsky, Nov 26 '19 at 01:24
@DmitryKamenetsky Unless I'm mistaken, a bishop anywhere on a $2^N$ board controls (threatens or occupies) exactly half of the (hyper)squares, so maybe not all that interesting :-) — Bass, Nov 26 '19 at 01:29
Hmm, my earlier argument seems to be based on any even-dimensional diagonal direction counting as a valid direction for the bishop. If the movement is always constrained to a two-dimensional hypergrid slice instead, it seems to actually make for an entertaining exercise to count the maximum number of peaceable bishop encampments. :-) — Bass, Nov 26 '19 at 01:56
Looks like people are sick of these puzzles. Ok I'll stop posting them. — Dmitry Kamenetsky, Nov 26 '19 at 05:37

This was probably not the most exciting question. Anyway there are many solutions. Here are some examples:

723...5617 2.23456..1 32.......6 .3......65 .4......5. .5......4. .6.......4 .1.....7.3 171654...2 71....4327

512...3.65 1.124.7.56 21....6... .2.....673 .4........ .3......4. 37......24 7......... 6..7342.51 5673..4.15

12.3..4671 21.5346..7 .........6 35......64 .3......4. .......... 467....253 ...7..2..5 71.6..5..2 17.4..3521

Interestingly one cannot add a single other bishop of any color.
