Chris,
The shading depends on the lighting but I know what you mean, the early pink was a shocker. I will work down the colour to a deeper tone in the textures to suit. You are quite correct in that the deeper red seems to be the more authentic colour.
That brings up another factor. In direct reflected light the textures are pure white. In full shadow pure black. Do the .mat files need to be tweaked or maybe the tga alpha level needs to be grayed back? I don't have time to look into this right at the moment. (I think the subject was broached a while back but it concerned transparency, need to check it again.)
Cheers,
Taurus.
