Hi Aerion,

If I understand correctly you have a color field in the dataSource and would like the seriesColor to get this color? This is not supported out-of-the-box, however it can easily achieved using the following approach: 
- Set series.colorField
- In the dataBound event set the value of colorField as series color.
@(Html.Kendo().Chart(Model)
  //....
  .Series(series =>
   {
    series.Line(
       model => model.Value,
       model => model.UserColor
    )
  })
  .Events(ev => ev.DataBound("onDB"))
)
 
<script>
function onDB(e) {
   e.sender.options.series[0].color = e.sender.options.series[0].data[0].UserColor
}
</script>
In case I am missing something please elaborate a bit more on the exact outcome you are trying to implement - this way I would be able to advice you further and provide concrete recommendations.
