Not to be smart, but there was a saying that went give me a fish and I eat for a day, teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime. jb I could give you the colors of the bill and feet of a ring bill, but that is only half the story. You need to use refence pictures to see how the colors blend and run on the birds legs and bill. There are thousands of pictures at the library on websites, probably even in magazines that you may have. A ringbill is a fairly common duck and I believe in the latest issue of DU or maybe it was Deltas end of the year report that had some truly great photos.
If you insist on the eating a fish today, white, light blue gray, dark gray, olive green, black.

If you plan on charging someone to do their ducks, the least you could do is invest in a Waterfowl Fishing Manual with paint schedules for all of them.
