Ferrari Red...er...orange
I know the topic of Ferrari red is hotly contested, but I'm wondering if I got a bad batch of paint. I decided to try Model Master Italian Red. Both jars looked suspicously orange to me, and after 6 coats, it is still looking pretty orange.
The F430 is painted with Tamiya TS-8 straight from the can. Their Italian red looks very red while the Model Master tends to be orange. Did I get a bad batch or does it really look like this?

Re: Ferrari Red...er...orange
MM Italian Red is not accurate for anything, it's just a color Testors named.
TS-8 is much closer to a real Ferrari color...the famous Rosso Corsa when put on over white primer.

Re: Ferrari Red...er...orange
MM's Italian Red has changed shades. Years ago it was rather orange.
The last time i looked it was almost exactly the same as their 'Guards Red'. I wouldn't be surprised if you got hold of some NOS (new old stock) paint from your lhs.
