Subject: what gw colour should i use to highlight over wazdakka red?
What type of red are you looking for as an overall effect?

I'd go with Fire Dragon Bright in a very, very detailed edge highlight.

Well I'm painting my world eaters - red and brass
Sorry I meant what type of red are you going for, like a deep strong red, yellowy red, blue red etc?
Most (all?) of the highlight colours mentioned are all yellow based reds, so they will change the tone of the miniature (as wazdakka is more blue red) so it depends on what effect you are after.

May I suggest using one of the AoS Khorne tutorials as a base for your World Eaters?

Spoiler:
Yeah would agree; depends on whether you definitely want Wazdakka read as your base? If you are then I'm not sure there are many highlight colours in the same tone and you will have to make some of your own (perhaps by adding a lighter reddish purple, but then you consistency issues).,

There's also a few other tutorials spread out on their YouTube channel.
