Default Bipe/skybolt Color Schemes

Anyone know of some good web resources for biplane color schemes? Just about to cover a GP skybolt and am looking for some ideas.

Thanks

Here is a pic of my goldberg Ultimate. It is covered in metallic purple monocote with bright yellow and white for trim colors. The bottom is purple and white striped.

Default I was thinking about flames

how did you do them? with mono/ultra cote? seen any good pics of flames out there?

There was a banner running on this site for giant scale that had flames on an edge I think and it looked great but of course I can't find the banner again.

Default RE FLAMES

USED MONOCOATE. MADE A STENCILE WITH A FRENCH CURVE AND USED THE STENCILE TO MAKE THE FLAMES.
THE PURPLE MONOCOATE WAS THE OUTTER PART OF THE FLAME & THE BLUE SHAPHIRE WAS THE INNNER PART OF THE FLAME.

Thanks hisham... I too miss the pumpkin season. Fall is always my favorite time of year. It is starting to warm up again though and regular flying days are just around the corner!
