Rubedo Skin Rhino Prime fashion fail

[phoenix1992]

Hello,

Couple of weeks ago I acquired and integrated the Rubedo Skin for Rhino Prime (shout out to support team - we were able to get around the Steam issue). 
But here is a problem - that skin seems to be done for casual rhino, and unless I paint it red - it just does not look good. And all red is... not exactly doing wonders for me.

So here is my plea - Help me integrate it in the current game, please!

I don't have the skin, so I can't do any testing to see what kind of colors work well with it myself. Some google searching came up with some good looking results.

 

 

 

I'm guessing this is close to what you look like now. It makes me cry inside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Try using a darker red so rhino doesn't burn people's eyes out of their sockets with his fiery intensity. Black/dark grey could make a good base color. The highlights and energy are up to you.

Darker colors will probably work better for the majority of the body since the skin requires such a bright color. You want the red to be visible, but not eye scorchingly visible.

 

Without getting the skin myself this is the best idea I have.

The point of the rubedo skin is basically being all red anyways, why is having to color rhino prime's additional parts red to match an issue exactly?

(This is intentional)

I have that skin set and the color isn't an issue

Can you give me examples?
So far I get the "firetruck red" vibe and I would like to see something that is more... diverse options.
I get that Rubedo is Red and Rhino should be Red - this is why I wonder if someone went around it.

you can't really change it, its main colors are red and it will show through any colors you choose.

It is 2 years old, I can't say spoiler tag was needed. 
Never the less you hit on directly on my issue with the first picture.

 
This was my first try - and it is just.... bad. As Ordis loves to say "my sensors are bleeding"

This is the second try - I used one of the Valentine colors and swapped the helmets. It does not assault my eyeballs so bad, but still - It is not something that I can fit around. Maybe the way the segment are overlapped with the skin itself, is the issue?

PS: I never did stated "me want to change the Rubedo color", I was more in the lines of asking, how to integrate around it, without buckets of red paint.
