Howdy, I have a complete set of tins for a 75 H2C that I'm going to have painted. Wanted to know what the most favored color is Purple or Red?

Thanks

Purple looks great, but I've seen more "misses" on that colour than with the red. The red looks awesome, but there are red H1's and S3's, so the purple H2C is way more "one of a kind".

Never heard anything but positive words about Brian H's paint jobs...

Didnt RB tell us when we were at his place, the red H2C's were less common to find?
Probably said that because HIS is red :lol:
If you look in the vendors section in the resource site you may find some painters.
I havenever searched for any there myself,
but you know just shy of everything can be found there, right??
;)

I personally prefer the purple, but I also like slight "personalized" variations on original paint colors, and would'nt mind having a set done in a deeper, richer metallic purple while using faithful reproduction decals.
