Usually from a year to 15 months, but realize some Veileds are just green and brown and not all that spectacular.
Wait-don't you have a female? She would have her colors by now-girls are even less colorful.

Do you have any pictures? Just want to make sure you have a male. As Julris mentioned , some males aren't as colorful as others, but even at 7 or 8 months, most males will start to show a portion of their adult coloration.

Bradders, you have a female, right? Females don't show many colors unless gravid or pretty stressed out (and even when stressed, wont be as brilliant or anywhere NEAR as brilliant as a male). So what you see now is what you get, I imagine.

Definitely she is beautiful! We weren't saying she wouldn't be beautiful, just not as colorful as males.
