                        Orange Paint for Honda CB750 or CR750 question
                        Posted by MountainManErik on Thursday, April 26, 2018 10:31 AM

                        Hi all, I am building the 1/8 MPC *** Mann Honda Racer and see it takes the same metallic orange that Tamiya's CB750 has.  I have a few close paints but probably need to mix with others, there lies my question.

                        I have Vallejo 71.068 copper, should i mix with maybe a orange?

                        Also, I have Tamiya X34 metallic brown, should i mix with maybe smoke?

                        I'm not good with colors but I think that you might be able to get a lot of help in the "Painting and Airbrushing" section of these forums. They've helped me with camo colors and they can probably help with your problem.

                        Hope that this helps.

                        Sorry about that, I thought the Painting and Airbrushing forum was more for techniques and product reviews.

                        No problem. You might get your answer here too. I just figured that it would give you another place to seek help too. Hope you get your help.

                        It did!  I learned something new over in the paint forum.  Never thought of painting silver first then Tamiya clear orange.
