That is a sweet shade of red on the canopy spine. Did you use one of those translucent colors that the auto-modelers like to work with?

Actually, it is the little square-glass bottle Testor enamel dark red, trying to match the dark red of the decals. I masked and airbrushed it over the Alclad. The aluminum shows through, but if I had added one more coat, it would have lost that unintentional candy apple appearance.
