I really like the dark red/brown paint scheme on the word bearer terminater on page 75 in the chaos space marine codex. Does anyone have an idea what colours were used? maybe a nice little tutorial?

I don't have the new Code, but I paint the red for my Word Bearers like this:
Vallejo Grey Surface Primer
VMA Fire Red (base color)
VMA Italian Red (highlight)
VMA Scarlet Red (extreme highlight)
VMA Mahogany (shadows)
Hope that is somewhat helpful.

looks like the badab black/ mahogany colour is a key element here, Ill try it out.

I wouldn't use a black wash on the red parts of the armor, just on the gunmetal trim for shadows. For any of the red armor, use a sepia or brown wash to go with mahogany/red colors.

army painter red spray primer - dip in black - profit
makes a really nice deep red, the detail work is fairly minimal on regular marines...the whole process takes me about a half hour and I get a decent enough result for rank and file troops
