Hey Fes, I'd back the copper with either silver or gold to bring out the metallic-ness of the copper.

Be sure to post pics of it when you're done!

Fester, why guess? Do a sample of each option on a scrap piece and see what your results are. I did a black body with copper stripes for a guy, and I actually backed the copper with red to get the true copper look I wanted (Faspearl copper paint was used). I used a fairly bright new penny as a color sample to guide my options.
