Thoughts on this Rapid GT? I wanted a modern take on the classic British open top 2 seater. Green of course

 

Wheels chosen to match the colour of the detailing behind the front arches and the A pillar...

 

 

 

 

 

Looks nice, I'd personally use gloss instead of metallic for the paint though.

[Murciélago]

What do you people think of this?

EDIT: f*cking autocorrect.

I think the custom tires are a bit much, the rest is nice

[NightHawkEVO]

Any thoughts on GTR? I think I need to change the rims... I do like keeping the colour of the car blue though. Also, I'm trying to make it a GTR GT3, just with my own twist.

Go with tuner rims if you want to make it look like a GT3

will agree with Kifflo, tuner rims and also go one color imo.

Getting a Turismo R to replace the Cheetah soon, should I go crew Giallo Modena primary with black secondary (Crew unlocks are f*cked for me, primary is unlocked but not secondary) or just Yellow on Yellow?

[Anubis871]

Anyone have suggestions for cars that are classy yet intimating at the same time?

Giallo Modena with black

Wasn't sure where to post this, you can upload images onto this site and then choose a point on the image and then get the colour and the RGB code for colouring your car

I agree with Giallo Modena and black. Make sure you check out the new code for Giallo Modena I came up with that's an extremely close match to the real thing: http://gtaforums.com/topic/782581-custom-lsc-crew-color-show-share/?p=1067414872

Think I've nailed the mint colour?

Think I've nailed the mint colour?

 

 

 

I think maybe a bit darker, like -5/10 value would be perfect in the sun. The shade you have now is good, just a bit harsh in the sunlight.

[Murciélago]

I'd make it a bit darker or lighter.

If YOU already think it looks weird, then that's all that really matters. Ultimately, you're making your cars for you.

 

For what it's worth, yes, I too think it would look weird.

Of the three, my pick is the Alpha, for what you asked.

 

For your Dubsta 6x6, I like it. I might go with one of the other wheels from Offroad, though, and probably make them either black or one of the other nearly-black colors. And also, matte black or gray secondary.

The Alpha looks the most villainnous imo

[THE_RUSTYRAT_39]

^ I like the Z Type as a villainous car, but out of your choices.... Definitely the Alpha

Oh yeah, the Z Type is an excellent choice. Roosevelt is a pretty good choice too.

Yeah but the color on my Z doesn't really look like something a villain would drive. Though the headlight covers could change that in a instant. Because headlight covers make everything evil looking. (Imo) Now i wish the Roosevelt had headlight covers, it would look sick.

[-GXP-]

Ahem did somebody say the Z-Type is villainous?

Haha haha that's brilliant.

Anyone know how to make this color (without using crew colors)

Without using a crew color, it's simply not possible. If you must do it in LSC, you have two choices: Lime Green or Dew Yellow. Use Classic colors which more accurately replicate the simpler paint jobs of the era. Lime Green will be more vibrant and bold. There were some Miuras painted in a paler version of that color that Dew Yellow comes close to.

 

If you want a better match, you'll need a crew color, like the one I mixed up last night. Either create your own crew if you're not already in five different crews, or find someone who has a colors crew and would be willing to set a color for you to use. You may know this already, but just in case: once you out a crew color on a car, the car stays that color even if you change crews, or the crew changes its crew color. You won't lose the color. I have a colors crew if you have room to join another crew and don't want to make your own (I'm on PS4; I have no idea if it'll work for you if you're on something else).

 

Here is my take on Verde Miura, a color used by Lamborghini on the Miura. I wanted this color for my Monroe, which is based partly on the Miura (I wish it more closely resembled the Miura, especially in the headlights, and in the B pillars.)

 

This was a difficult color to make, mainly because Lamborghini is known to have used at least three different shades of Lime Green to be this color. Additionally, at the time, Lamborghini kept very poor records, and it was practically impossible to tell what exact color a Miura was really painted. This often made paint-matching on damaged or worn Miuras a real problem. If you do an image search for green Miuras, you'll find examples that range from very near to the Dew Yellow color in LSC, to the Lime Green in LSC, and everything in between.

 

I feel that mine is a close-enough (for GTA) match to the spirit of the color.

 

Verde Miura: #6CA028

(The intended color was #87C832, made two,shades darker for GTA.)

 

 

One example of a green Miura:

The closest you're gonna get to that with LSC colors is a gloss lime green.

so even though i have been saving for a new vehicle i broke down and got the new rims. i am still getting used to the look them, but i like them enough i think i can live with the cost.

 

[Murciélago]

Those wheels look nice, I'd make the car white though.
