baseConvert is a good, general purpose tool - but you can do this more 
concisely using format

 put "#" into theWebColor -- leading "#"
 repeat for each item myItem in theColorNumber -- numeric triplet -  R,G,B
    put format("%02X",myItem) after theWebColor
 end repeat

note - I prefer RGB colours to be #0A0B0F - i.e. upper case - so I used 
"%02X", but if you prefer lower case you can instead us "%02x"
