Foxer Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I'm ready to finish off a years long build (like all my builds aren't years long!) and my color insensibility could use the keen eyes from here ... please! I can see it whent it's in front of me, but seeing it otherwise doesn't work for me ... I know my artistic limitations. The red paint is a given .. a Honda metallic that looks good on the car and in scale. I need a complimentary color, for the wheels especially and maybe the running boards or other touches. The photos show the wheels painted with a Gunmetal ... it doesn't PoP for me, so I'm looking for suggestions. I appreciate all suggestions!
astroracer Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Start with the interior color. What are you planning for that?
Snake45 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Semigloss black for the running boards.Your wheels look fine to me. Not everything has to "pop," you know. You could try doing the rims in a lighter/brighter silver/chrome-y color and leaving the spokes as they are, or lightening the rims and darkening the spokes, maybe even all the way down to black.
misterNNL Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 You might consider using whatever Honda uses as an interior color with that shade of red. I would be very surprised if they don't use some shade of grey and that would work with your wheel color choice.
