Welcome to dak dak and what might work is a dark blue with dheneb stone as highlight for the reflection. Thats what i think will work i am still learning myself so if anyone has a better idea to do this feel free to chime in.

If you think the same way you would paint a gem. My easy-ish kinda method
Say your working with a red scope . . .
-Red gore basecoat
-Red gore + Blood red leaving pure redgore on the lower of the scope and a little round the edge
-More blood red to the mix, again leaving the last layer on the bottom and a little round the edge
-Baal red wash to tie it together
-Small dash of skull white as a highlight
Hope that helps newcomer
