In the 'create it' contest, you can print out a page of colors that you can use to make your design, I don't know how to get those exact colors in paints other than mixing to get as close as possible. Does anyone know what they expect and how close the colors should be?

No it says you can use non-electronic methods. I mean, the design for Armada's was originally painted and Armada's have the sickest graphics ever so...

ANTs are a painting. The AR5's are painting, and so is the ARV.
