Pink Base from Number Five is a pink tone that carries its designation as a base color in its very name.
Responsibility details are not available.
The word Base in the name places this tone among the base colors rather than among the final colors of a body. A pink base has a clear role in automotive modeling: beneath clean and bright reds, oranges and magentas it gives a warmer starting point than white and does not add to them the cold cast that gray would bring beneath them. Number Five has several bright shades in the same part of the palette, to which this base logically belongs.
Signal and bright pigments have a different nature from ordinary paints, because they react to what is beneath them. A light and slightly pinkish starting point is an established choice with them, whereas a dark underside would pull them down into brown tones and rob them of the brightness for which they are used. The pink can at the same time be put to work on its own, say on the areas of bold liveries or on accessories. In the 1980s pink moreover appeared in several sponsor liveries of circuit and rally cars, so it has a historical subject of its own as well.
For modelers who build cars with a bold signal livery and want the right starting point beneath it, and for those who are missing a pink in a basic set. Builders of figures and small accessories will put it to use as well, where the point is a warm light tone rather than a covering body color. The subject here is not the body of any car but the role of a base layer, which the item has assigned to it directly by its name.
