John Deere themed body

[Japple]

I picked up a used SC10 roller I'm going to make a truck out of for my dad. I want to do a basic john deere themed paintjob.
Does anybody know what colors are closest to john deere green and yellow?

The green is actually called "John Deere Green".
Any good hardware store should have enough of a choice where you could get a good match of the green and the yellow.
Put those 2 colors together on anything and it just says John Deere.

yes I could find regular spray paint at a hardware store, but what about lexan paint? I have no local hobbyshop to check out colors in.

There's Ebay.
Look for either the Parma or the Createx paints.
Arts and crafts stores like Michael's or Hobby Lobby also carry them.

I'm holding a bottle of the green and it's perfect. The colors on the site are way off, but the 2 I linked to are what you want.

Most likely you will need to mix your own green, I can't think of any rc manufacturer that makes a John Deere green lexan paint. The yellow is easy, but the green will most likely need to be custom mixed.

Should've included that I'm looking for rattlecans as I haven't been able to justify an airbrush yet, though if I keep doing bodies I probably will

I think this was the pain I used when I painted my "John Deere" rustler.

You are going to be limited using rattle cans. Tamiya has a good selection though. Take a look at PS-9 or PS-22. Amain Hobbies and Tower carry Tamiya.

great, I'll put up pictures of the body when I'm able to get it.
