For modelling, drop to Carmine Red (RAL 3002) in the recesses and step up to Luminous Orange/Leuchtorange on the edges, both Revell paints. Luminous Red/Leuchtrot is a little less common: the closest same-finish match, Humbrol Signal Red, reaches 85 percent, and 2 other brands carry a strong same-finish alternative.
