Just an update on my model....and I thought you guys might be interested. I was debating exacting what color to use for the hull. I was going to mix my own, but decided to try different Testor sprays. I tested the paint on old scrap and finally painted the hull and it came out the PERFECT shade. First, I painted it with Testors flat black. I then used Testors Gloss Dark Red, and followed that with Dull Cote. I was worried that it would be too dark or too red...but it came out EXACTLY the right shade and what I was looking for. I couldn't have found a better color even if I mixed it.
