Red Truth equivalents, brand by brand
No brand clones Red Truth outright, but 1 range comes close enough to swap. The best candidate from each catalog:
- Closest Citadel equivalent: Citadel Wild Rider Red, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.3).
- From Vallejo: Vallejo Fluorescent Orange, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.6).
- AK Interactive's closest color: AK Interactive Burn Orange, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
- Nearest in the Humbrol catalog: Humbrol Signal Red, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.3).
- Best Revell option: Revell Luminous Red/Leuchtrot, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.2).
- From Two Thin Coats: Two Thin Coats Fanatic Orange, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.3).
The honest caveat: Citadel Wild Rider Red dries clearly cooler and more muted than Red Truth, so expect recess shading and edge highlights to shift with it.
