Sword Hilt Burgundy is a dark moderate red with a warm undertone. For modelling, drop to Royal Cloak in the recesses and step up to Asmodeus Red on the edges, both Two Thin Coats paints. Substitutes are thin here, with Scale75 Indian Shadow the closest same-finish option at 77 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.
