I can do that color for you and add it to the chart later :) Today is my day off from work and I’m doing other things I’ve been meaning to do but I’ll get around to that color :)
Thank you! I have a picture for reference if you need one, it is in full sunlight.
 
Happy Thanksgiving everyone :) I hope everyone is enjoying food, family or whatever is important in your lives :)

@Stang616 I added Dark Calypso Green Metallic to the chart along with other colors :) Enjoy :)

Champagne Silver Metallic
Dark Calypso Green Metallic
Moonstone Metallic

Brisk Blue Metallic
Desert Brown Metallic
Midnight Black Pearl

Happened across a thread on the Forza Horizon sub-Reddit and if you guys get an influx of requests moving forward, you can blame me for that. :P

Thanks @MadaraxUchiha I'll check it out later today possibly.
 
You’re very welcome :) I’m glad you think so :D I’m currently using it on my Cadillac CTS-V and I love it! It’s such a nice color so thank you for bringing it to my attention lad :)
Absolutely! I never knew it existed until I bought a 95 Sedan Deville in that color. It's gorgeous in the sun.
 
Hey guys! Was just wondering if we could get an update to Toyota's Nitro Yellow? I put the values in on the chart and it looks way more orange than yellow. Here's the values in-game compared to an IRL photo. Thanks!

Try these values. I originally did Nitro Yellow a long time ago but someone replaced my values on the chart:

the midnight purple is perfect its so much better than the one I tried making lol thank you!
 
Another inquiry (and you may want to add this to notes/comments to prevent confusion)

Vermillion Red (McLaren) has both Metal Flake and Normal paints. What's the intended difference between the two?

OT: I had a crack at updating the WR Blue Pearl which as much as I liked, it looked a bit too teal for my liking (from the chart). So I went ahead and tried it myself (thanks @MadaraxUchiha for encouraging me a bit)

I'm a little hesitant because I have no idea if I'm doing it right or wrong.

Wow these are awesome! Thank you so much for doing it.
 
Can you do Ford’s Brittany Blue Metallic? It’s an old color from the old gt500’s and is becoming available for the new gt500 in the heritage edition. I don’t think it’s been done yet.

Can you do Ford’s Brittany Blue Metallic? It’s an old color from the old gt500’s and is becoming available for the new gt500 in the heritage edition. I don’t think it’s been done yet.
I actually was going to do the color :) I believe it has another name though as well. I’ll have to do more research.

This is what I’ve found about it “
PPG code 13619 - blue
This blue automotive paint color is most commonly known as Brittany Blue. Other common color promotional names include Medium Blue, Glacier Blue, and Huron Blue. The color formulation has been used between 1967 and 1970, primarily by Ford; but also by Mercury and Lincoln. We have records of this color appearing on the following models: Ford Truck, Thunderbird, Comet, Cougar, Fairlane, Falcon, Galaxie, and Mustang.”

I have one more request/question - will a category for brakes every happen? I want to get the yellow Porsche uses for their carbon ceramic brakes on the 911 turbo s’s.

So I found out something interesting about Brittany Blue. The classic color used in the 60s and 70s has the color code of Q, but the 2022 version of the color used on the 2022 Mustang Shelby GT500 Heritage Edition has the code of EB and is also used by Lincoln under the name ‘Chroma Crystal Blue’. I already added Chroma Crystal Blue on the chart a while ago so if you want the modern version of Brittany Blue, use the values for that. I’ll do the classic version as well :)

Another inquiry (and you may want to add this to notes/comments to prevent confusion)

Vermillion Red (McLaren) has both Metal Flake and Normal paints. What's the intended difference between the two?

OT: I had a crack at updating the WR Blue Pearl which as much as I liked, it looked a bit too teal for my liking (from the chart). So I went ahead and tried it myself (thanks @MadaraxUchiha for encouraging me a bit)

I'm a little hesitant because I have no idea if I'm doing it right or wrong.
From the attachment, I'd say it looks pretty good! But, like a number of other colours, the problem with WR Blue is Subaru has created different versions of it. 02C is one of the earliest, if not the earliest, which was used from 2004 through to 2014, according to PaintRef. Their most recent, K7X, came around in 2015 and is still being used.
However, I can't seem to spot any major differences between the two - whether or not one is a deeper shade than the other. Either way, whichever one you've tried adjusting, not bad. :)

I've seen that having the option to paint the brake callipers has been heavily requested over the past few years, but I don't have a certain answer to this question. This is probably going to be a lot smaller as it's not likely going to contain as much variety compared to both body colours and wheel colours. So at this stage, I'm not too sure. :confused:

I may have a look at these values to see how they compare with the real deal tomorrow. Sadly I don't have the ability to have a rough idea of what a colour replica may look like. :lol:

This is already in the spreadsheet, but I might need to have another go at it since I did add it quite some time ago here. I'll have a check of what it looks like in FH5 to see if it still looks accurate, as it has been a long time since I've had it on any car. If not, chances are I'll only have to make some slight adjustments.

From what I was copying, I believe I was using K7X as what I was intending to do which is probably what it would have have been.

Speaking of, did you also spot my Atlantis Blue BMW (paint code 207)? (it probably got buried)

Quick edit: Also, my inquiry about McLaren's Vermillion Red with the possible reason behind a metal flake and a normal.

I did both of those at the same time because I found some pictures of the color that looked solid and some that looked metallic. Both are accurate to their respective versions. I included both so that people could pick which one they needed or wanted.

A category for brake colors will not be happening. If you want that color you talked about, then do it yourself. I'm pretty sure it's a solid color, so just put an image of it into Chris Hill's Forza color picker and copy the values in the game.

Ah, I see. (Vermillion Red)

Really? Because when I entered what was on the sheet, I personally felt that the WR Blue on there was very... teal.

Edit: That said, there are two different shades, so the one I used was K7X...

Edit 2: Honestly it's up to you - you're in charge of the sheet, I'm just giving it a go.
