So, I'm planning to make a Flesh Eaters Tactical Squad with the following scheme:

Base:
Vallejo Model Color Scarlet
Abbadon Black
Leadbelcher

Wash:
Argax Earthshade
Nuln Oil

Now, what Citadel color should I edge highlight the Scarlet with?

I don't know how the vallejo scarlet looks,

but if it more closely resembles knorne red, I would highlight with Mephiston red,

if it most closely resembles mephiston red, then I would highlight with Evil Sunz Scarlet,

and if it most closely resembles Evil Sunz Scarlet, then I would either highlight with wild rider red or jokero orange depending on how bright you want it to be.

*sigh

thats all I can help you with. Hope I did something,

If you want to make it so that it appears the paint is coming off raised areas of the armour use a White Dry Paint, Praxeti White I think.

I usually mix a flesh type colour in to my red to do the highlights. If you want something more vibrant you can use a brighter red or an orange.
