Olof...that is an absolutely gorgeous colour Chris, I know Bill sent you the link to the JB/Campy only paint colour chart, and Grant has also indicated that the jumbo box of Crayolas are a useful tool for determining colour.
My ideas only for colours that go with cream ...are that I like darker and warmer as opposed to the blue/cooler colours with cream. To my eye the silver and light blue models are not as pleasing. But, to be fair of course , seeing a paint job in the flesh is different , and different in sunlight or cloud or low light conditions. I also think I've mentioned that 4 of my 5 (will be 5) reflect my love of autumn colours (metallic dark green ,construction pumpkin, burgundy metallic, harvest gold) Anyway, good luck with what you choose!
