Simona de Silvestro 2013 DW-12 Questions

[1961redlegs]

I've been wanting to do a replica of Simona de Silvestro's DW-12 as it ran last season. I think it was one of the better-looking liveries on track and she is one of my favorite current drivers.

My question is about the colors of this car. It looks like the white is a pearl white and the blue is a metallic blue. The green is sort of a lime green, but I cannot be too sure (I'm bad at identifying colors.) I was thinking of using Tamiya Pearl white, Deep Metallic Blue and some sort of bright green for the green parts. Are these good choices? Would anyone else have any recommendations as to what colors would be the best for this car?

Thank you for your help!

You might ask, Ralph.

TS45 pearl white, TS51 for the blue and TS22 for the green.

I kinda have a crush on her!

If I was an Indycar driver and was leading on the last lap of the Indy 500 and she was 2nd - I'd let her win. Actually it would matter anyway with this DW12 because 2nd place would win on the last lap anyway!

Sad, but true.

I don't find it sad at all.... makes it all the more unpredictable... In two years we saw TK lose an Indy 500 because he waited for the last lap only to have it end under caution and then next year we saw him win it because he decided not to wait and it went yellow with him in front. It's the ultimate game of chicken.

What Michael said, although I believe I used TS-50 Mica Blue rather than the TS-51 as I found the 51 to be to "silver" in color.

That would work too.
