Midnightmare Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 As above really, do they have one close to the old GW red? And anybody used it before?

Midnightmare Posted March 19, 2013 Author Share Posted March 19, 2013 S'ok; Dragon Red red appears to be the one! (Got a load of drop pods to paint and want to try is out) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272967-army-painter-red-similar-to-gw-mechrite-red/#findComment-3330930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razblood Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Yup, Dragon Red is the closest. Might be a little more vibrant than Mechrite though.

DarkMark Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hi, Here's a decent thread showing the colour off, take notice of the tips, and be aware you can now buy it in a dropper bottle too for touch ups or putting through an AB.

Midnightmare Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks for the advice (and the link, some very helpful info there) I am totally going to give it a go - I am swapping out to a few more drop pods in my list and so far the only one I own is still 'sprue grey' and I really can't face doing three! Pods seem the ideal tester. Also, good shout on the touch up paint Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/272967-army-painter-red-similar-to-gw-mechrite-red/#findComment-3333753 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Dragon red is pretty much identical to mephiston red, which is the equivalent to mechrite, although less 'purple', and more vibrant.
