That is one orange synth. One of my favorite looking synths actually. The shade of orange seems to depend on the lighting. If you zoom in you'll see it has Nextel paint which gives it a soft suede-light texture. The early Waldorf synths had this type of finish to them.  Beautiful synths. The only problem with the XTk is it's aftertouch. It pretty much an on/off affair and it can be difficult to get smooth transitions with it.  It's a shame it was never addressed, as the XTk was otherwise a nearly perfect synth.
