Forza Horizon 4 - Colour Creation Database (CONSTANT WORK IN PROGRESS) *READ FIRST POST*

[JaCor653]

What concerns me is how many of these colors actually have reference photos? One problem I’ve encountered a lot is that not every color has a reference photo :/ And I’m willing to bet that a lot of these colors don’t have reference photos, either

I didn't think about that. For the solid colors, I was just going to use the sample squares on your images from before. As for the metallic colors, we'll just have to do what we can.

EDIT: In the meantime, here are a bunch of colors:

Dawn Blue (Chevrolet)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.57R, 0.60L, 0.64R

Chevrolet’s Dawn Blue was also used by General Motors; both manufacturers also called the color Brigade Blue.

Light Blue (Dodge)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.57L, 0.28R, 0.80L

Dodge’s Light Blue was called Wedgewood by Chrysler. Dodge also used the name Wedgewood. Plymouth also used the name Light Blue.

Sunset Yellow (Dodge)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.09R, 0.52L, 0.90L

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.00L, 0.81R, 0.85R

Meadowlark Yellow (Ford)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.17R, 0.35L, 1.00R

Ford’s Meadowlark Yellow was called Mikado Yellow by Lincoln and Sexony by Mercury. In 1969, both Lincoln and Mercury used the name Yellow.

New Lime (Ford)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.24L, 0.30R, 0.87L

Ford’s New Lime was called Light Ivy Yellow by Lincoln and Mercury.

Phoenician Yellow (Ford)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.13L, 0.33R, 0.97L

Ford’s Phoenician Yellow was called Yellow Mist by Mercury.

Cuban Tan (Studebaker)

Paint Material: Normal (Gloss)
- Paint Color: 0.05R, 0.25L, 0.50R

What did you do for the metallic ones that don’t have reference photos?

 

[JaCor653]

What did you do for the metallic ones that don’t have reference photos?

There are reference photos. At least half of these colors are standard Toyota colors, so just search the name of the color, followed by "Toyota" or "Toyota Corolla." But of course, don't capitalize the words when you search. It wasn't too hard to replicate those colors.

Already that's a fairly large chunk of colours done! I guess I have been beaten to some of them already, not that it matters that much. I had already done everything up until Grey Metallic Clearcoat, so all of those have flown out of my window, which leaves me with Black (202), Red (3D7), and the three variants of Silver Metallic Clearcoat (137, 147, 148). Saying that, it leaves me wondering which version of that you did; whether or not it is 147 which is used in the 2M8 Two-Tone combination.

I noticed that there were like three or four Silver Metallic Clearcoats across the four years of production. I did not do any particular one of them. With the relative lack of reference material, I figured it would be hard for Google to discern between the different variants of the color. Plus, even if I could find reference photos for all variants of the color, the in-game colors produced would end up looking quite similar.

EDIT: Here are nine more AE86 colors to add to the list.

[mapphew]

In honor of the new cars coming to Horizon 4, I have only one paint request.

I am also hoping for the option to remove one of the doors on the SD1, but that's just wishful thinking.

Edit: the color name I believe is called Turmeric.

I looked up the color and there were some RCF's in it, looks glossy for me, too.

What’s the actual name of the color? It’s not Race Yellow.

 

[GTvsForza]

I thought it was called that. It's the yellow on the LFA Nurburgring.

Maybe it's Sunset Orange, I'm a little colorblind :/

Well since the LFA is coming back how about this new green color for the LC500

So I'm back with some more colours, one less due to having the pace of a turtle. @MadaraxUchiha beat me to posting Emerald Green Pearl for Dodge, but it's in the spreadsheet nonetheless!
I went back through previous pages and completed some requests that had not been done, along with some of my own colours that haven't been done yet, so everything should be up-to-date regarding car colours. I'm planning on doing some work on wheel colours at some stage, but the main focus is on manufacturer colours.

^There must be 30 years of VW green in there.

The sad part is I think every one of those greens is gorgeous, but I have too many colors saved already and can't use them I hate having to delete designs because they can't seem to upgrade the amount of liveries we can have downloaded. Same goes for the amount of cars we can have in our garage, but who knows when either will get upgraded again

 

[JaCor653]

Can people please do a little preliminary research before they make a request here? If you find a color you like or want made, figure out its name. Then, check the spreadsheet by clicking the link in the OP on page 1. If the color you want is already there, you're good. If not, post here.

Thanks Madara for the emerald green, looks fantástic!

I agree!

There was a green very common in GTIs built in Mexico. It's closest to Classic Green Pearl but it leans more towards turquoise, I believe. It's a dark color.

 

[mapphew]

@Mitcho2001 Thanks for getting those done! They look fantastic! Can't wait for the LFA to come and put the Deep Garnet on it!
