My color choice was going to be medium gray, with an orange nose cone, like my childhood version. One fin on each stage might get orange paint. I don’t recall if I did the fins orange, but probably. I seemed to paint a lot of my rockets with fins differing in color from the body tube.
I guess it will look like a spotless/stripeless tiger shark, with a sunburned nose.  (And no white belly ...)
