Color help needed

Hello Gents!

I would appreciate your help/input in finding a good color to paint some Ferrari leather seats and interior.

I am looking for a good "Burgundy" type red i.e.a deep, rich, dark red. I think I'd prefer a Vallejo color ref as I think their Air Acrylics are great for interiors but I am TOTALLY open to anything you have used and can recommend.

I'm not posting a ref picture as I can't find one for what I'm thinking of.

Really appreciate any advice you can give.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

I'm thinking something along the lines of teh one more or less in teh middle of these skins

Never tried something better that matt Vallejos for interiors. Just polish they a bit or do experiments with thin layers os satin clear and you'll do a masterworks.

If you are looking for a deep, satin burgundy, give model master acryl "Anti-fouling Red" a try. I think originally it's for ship modelling.

Cheers
