You can always keep an eye out for a D40 Nickel & Black

Ohh, that looks great, they (should) still offer that combo in the D405 range!
I actually had a fun idea for color on my build but the D405/1 kinda killed it. I really like the color of Uskin raw Bronze/brass castings. I am getting the Uskin smokebox so the front will be diffent then stock then wanted to strip all the paint from the kit and just feature all the nice colors of metal, there would be copper and nickel with a little brass and the Uskin parts are color of bronze...some parts will be polished and some left Matt finish...the only issue with my plan is I (believe) the firebox and area an operator would stand are just sheet tin, if I strip that and leave bare it will rust. If this build goes well I may consider a second build but Fab the firebox from copper or aluminum or stainless...have to give it some thought after I see all the parts disassembled.
