Hey, out of curiosity have you figured out a paint color for this? I used an industrial machinery paint that's a dark yellow but it doesn't quite have enough of an orange hue to it. Figured I'd ask since like 50% of our builds are the same :p

im going to do a Krylon orange and spray over with MetalX yellow it has a awesome ironman gold to it i think it will be just about right then a matte fin over it.

*UPDATE*
No pep to upload this week but i will post pics if you guess what this has became.

of course i got a drawer full lol going to use up all the cheap one's first then try to clean them with Paint Thinner or mineral spirits :cool if it dont clean them then i can just toss them.
Going to spray a red base on the golden parts after primer the hit it with the Bauhaus Gold to get the right color my spray test looked good.

Good luck, personally hardening is the worst part of the whole build for me. I hope you fare much better as that is one awesome looking pep you got there
