Picking a Paint Job

I'm ordering my engine and prop next month, which got me to thinking about the inevitable paint job that's not far away. I starting looking at my photos of RV's from various airshows and events over the past years. I didn't realize I had so many. So I put them in a video. Maybe you can spot one you like.

I have the scheme picked out for my 8!, now I look at every silver, grey and blue car and truck for the right color ( Ford has nice silvers and grey , Toyota blue ) . Getting close to paint .

I did the exact thing, using car colors I liked. My plane is the paint shop now getting painted Corvette Velocity Yellow , White, and BMW Interlagos Blue.... I felt safer picking car colors I have seen and liked in real life, rather than colors that I thought I would like from a book.

Trouble is Smitty, that your collection of favourite photos cover the whole spectrum of options. :D Do you prefer colourful stripes, or military markings?
