Transparent or Opaque? Which COE?

104 Coe:
For Opaque, I would personally go for Effetre 438 Purple Red.
For Transparent, try layering.

I agree with the purple red, it is a beautiful maroon color.

You should check out the Online Color Palette at Frantz. Click on the color square in the Palette Picker that is closest to what you're looking for. A bunch of paddles will show up below, and you can then click on them to get more info on the color.

Be sure you scroll to the right in the paddle section. There are A LOT of colors shown.
