Help decide a color!

[Zac_F83]

Got a 1/10 Proline 73 Bronco body to paint which color/colors should it be got 9 to choose.. Truck will have Black wheels and chrome RPM bumpers

top to bottom-

PS22- Brit Racing green

PS19- Camel Yellow

PS23- Gunmetal

PS14- Copper

PS3- Light blue

Pactra Daytona Yellow (middle left- light Yellow)

Pactra Gloss White (bottom center- probably gonna be the roof color)

Pactra Indy Silver (bottom left)

Pactra Outlaw Black (bottom right)

So far a couple friends told me the Brit Racing Green/ w/ White roof

I'm debating on the Green or the Daytona Yellow.. would like to hear your suggestions..

Gunmetal with white top.

It's going to look awesome!

Good luck with the project and don't forget to share some pictures of it when ready!

Gunmetal.

Copper with White top. Copper is an awesome colour in sunlight or dull lighting.

My second choices would be light blue (sort of a period bronco colour) or gunmetal

[Singleseven]

Copper then blue, either with a white roof. Brit green on a Landy yes, but on a Bronco? Mmm not sure.

[alfagta]

copper backed with yellow with white roof then back the whole shebang with black.

Is this an attempt to use up all the paint ?

:lol: ,

just a method i used on a datsun 510 shell i had , turned out real nice , wish i still had it , but i will insist on running 'and crashing' all my cars and shells

I have one on my Axial, painted on the outside in silver and met. red I had planned on a bit darker red but it turned out Ok with the silver on the inside as well to let the scratches show through. But it's hard to go wrong with gunmetal always looks good and you could use just about any of your other colours for a two tone.

The truck is a Traxxas Emaxx 3903 I just bought last Thursday.. I'll share pics for sure and hope they don't get deleted haha

My Dad and I thought about misting the Copper in first then Gunmetal (GM with the Copper metal flake)- and White roof

I like the Light Blue, Daytona Yellow (this usually shows up a shade darker than on the cap), w/ a White roof..

few pics-

Camel Yellow-

Gunmetal on a RC version-

A guy on another board did this in a copper orange color and it looks great.

I like this a lot! Thanks for posting it!

British green with camel yellow. Like the F1 Lotus in the 60ies.

As I said before, from the color cans you have there, the gunmetal with white top should look best.

Still, if you want some example vehicle, when I had a Bronco myself I went for orange with silver top and LOVED it.

I don't think you can go far wrong with any of the colours you have available, as long as you steer clearof the light blue. That makes even a full-size one look a bit toy-like IMNSHO.

[Theibault]

To me, the light blue is the iconic Bronco color. That said, I think any of the colors would look great.

Ps3 light blue and some Gulf Livery decals :-)

[Zac_F83]

I chose one! Light Blue with black flairs/bumpers, Silver grille, and need to decide on the roof-

Light Blue with the rest of the truck OR paint it White or Black

[Percymon]

White roof is more classic

[Zac_F83]

It is decided! LIght Blue body/White roof, Silver bumpers/grille, and Black fender flairs

[Zac_F83]

well painted it up last night and finished it this morning! check it out (not gonna post the pics in here since it's not a Tamiya..)
