I'm looking for some material for scales, G-10 or Micarta. SPecifically, I am looking for orange and maroon colored material. I can find hunter or bright orange, but nothing subdued. I have seen one set of maroon, but it looked very dark. Might be interested in some yellow too, all depending on the shade of yellow. Upcoming fall colors if you are wondering.

I have checked a few of the better known suppliers, and see nothing that trips my trigger. Any other suggestions?

Maybe try giving these suppliers a call. They may have some material not shown on there website, or they may be able to get what you want. Just tossin' my change in.
 
try alpha knife supply; they have many colors of G10, including a "ruby red" that may work for your maroon color. Chuck is really good to do business with, as well.

Never seen subdued orange but as said above, Alpha has hunter orange, ruby red and yellow. USAKnifemaker probably has the next best selection.
 
I've found Sheffield Supply to be the best source for G-10 and Micarta.

From their supply catalog for 1/4" thick micarta:

I believe they have more colors than those though as their catalog is quite old and out of date.
 
You can always go custom, there are a few on here who make it
