RED BARON RETURNS · 28 May 2006, 08:49 AM

Hello Mates,
I need a little help here with the painting of my Fokker Dr1.425/17.
What shade of red was on this 425/17 ?
I was told to use a Testors dark red #1204 then use a flat coat.But to me that looks a little too dark.So i thought i go on here at the Aerodrome where the experts are and find out what really is the true red color of this 425/17.
Also did any of the streaking show through the red paint of MVR 425/17?
Any info will help.
Thanks,
JP
