Aged Hide is a mid-tone vivid red with a warm undertone. For modelling, drop to Fire Drake in the recesses and step up to Peachy Flesh on the edges, both The Army Painter paints. Substitutes are thin here, with Citadel Gryph-Hound Orange the closest same-finish option at 76 percent and no brand hitting the strong-match bar. Cross-brand swaps are adjust-on-model territory here, useful as a starting point rather than an exact replacement.
