If the scale is small paint it with any copper painting and add a little of green in various shades. I hope these ideas are useful for you.

I'm not too enthusiastic about brass and copper metallic paints, so I've developed a method which uses neither. First - paint the "metal" area in the finest grain aluminium paint you have (it's the graininess of most metallics that irritates me) Then, make a solution of Future and watercolour pencil - yellow ochre for brass, indian red for copper. I do this by rubbing the pencil on a piece of 1200 grit wet&dry then dabbing it with a Future soaked medium size brush until the powder is dissolved. Start with an overall coat of the discoloured Future. It's best that the colouration be weak, because you get more control building it up layer by layer. To introduce discolouration, I start to add burnt sienna pencil instead or as well as the indian red. By feathering it out from one end of the "pipe", then adding another layer whic covers that and feathers out further down, and so on, you get pretty good control of the effect. Bands of discolouration in other colours can be added, and that swirly blue/yellow/black discolouration seen sometimes is reasonably easy too but of course you need a wider selection of pencils Last of all - a coat of dull varnish and maybe a drybrush of scale black on the hot end. Also (absolutely ot) I've used this method to discolour the rear of an aluminium fuselage on a Hun (but not the WW1 one!) Sadly, while it worked out perfectly the rest of the model was a POS :-( Errm, the only net-readable pic I have of something done this way is probably the brass prop tips on the W.29 on the web site.

The player (John Hopoate) was *not* a Rugby player. He was a *League* player. League players think that thats the sort of thing private school gentlemen do! The old saying that "Rugby is a game for thugs played by gentlemen, and soccer a game for gentlemen played by thugs" which Graham slightly elaborated refered to Rugby (Union) a.k.a as Rugby, or Rugger, which is played all over the World. The Hopoate incidence was Rugby League, a very different game, played in Queenslanders and New South Welshmen, in Yorkshire and by a tiny percentage of New Zealanders and virtually no-one else. Now Hopoate could have doen witha coat of Future on his finger......
