I have to deal with color all the time for the paint and tile in bathrooms that I remodel.
Most people are sooo afraid to put a little color in their lives so I've set enough beige tile and rolled on enough beige paint over the years to make me puke.
For a decision like this one you are doing the right thing to get some advice. But I wouldn't ask a bunch of fuddy duddies on a tractor board for it.
Even small towns will usually have some sort of interior design store. Maybe the local paint or flooring stores or the furniture place.
I would not hesitate to spend a couple hundred bucks to have someone come out to have a look at your place and help me with an overall plan and color scheme. Considering the amount of dough you will be spending on this a couple hundred $ for color advice is a paltry sum.
Pleasing color schemes have a big effect on your mood and attitude - whether or not you even realize it.
So put a little color in your life!
I can't help you more without seeing what your buildings look like.
I would just avoid strong, primary colors. They would set the tone of your farm instead of being a nice accent. Or to put it another way; you don't want people thinking
"nice red/black/blue/white/black roof but I don't remember what was under it."
By the way, women generally do have a much better color/texture sense than men do. But being a woman does not automatically mean you have it. Some of the ugliest color schemes I have done were for women - such that I would have gladly have traded it for beige.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a ...
