Spraying it on miniatures does this:

Spraying the dark red variety does this:

Not bad at all. Way cheaper than all these Army Painter spray paints I used to color code many of my minis.

I have never thought to use krylon for this. Nice find!
Sure it's pretty scary when the witch lord returns but what you should really be afraid of is "Resurrection of the Witch Lord". Resurrected baddies always come back more threatening than ever, usually kind of demonic with wings and horns and hell fire to announce their arrival. Think Gannondorf or Mother Brain from Super Metroid.

Um....no. You want them sprayed with this or something?

Could you send those sprays with it? I'll pay those of course.

Thanks for sharing! I'll remember this. I'm always on the lookout for the best matching colors for "official" HQ colors :D

It's not spray paint, but a very close "hero red" is Sanguine Highlight Formula P3, which I used on this Reaper dancer figure to make a custom female monk.

Has there been an accumulative list posted of best color matches to the official HQ colors?
