Hey Dakka whats up, just finished my Charcarodons. And i need tips on how to paint them, I know that Codex grey is the main color but im having trouble figuring out wht color red im supposed to use on the stripes, Blood Red is a bit to bright, and they stopped making Scab Red. So help me out fellow Dakkites.

Scab red is is still in production (http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat470011a&prodId=prod930008a), and red gore is one step up from that in brightness (and is IMHO the best red). It's not too bright or too maroon.

I'd probably use Red Gore, since Scab Red is maybe too dark and muddy and contrast is nice.

Also they are still Space Sharks to me and I'll never accept any other name for them.
