Using Hama 35 Neon Red in a design
Next to Hama 18 Black it has a contrast ratio of 4.9:1, a clear edge, against 3.1:1 next to Hama 01 White. It works as a highlight on dark designs; beside white beads it still shows, but softly.
No other Hama color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Hama 33 Cerise, is ΔE 7.4 away (similar), so a swap would show; buy enough Neon Red for the whole design.
Across brands, Artkal has the closest stand-in (Artkal S66, ΔE 5.8) and Perler the furthest (Perler Tomato, ΔE 7.8). All four brands are 5 mm, so a closer bead from another brand can sit on the same pegboard.
The name says neon: that finish changes how the bead reads in light, and a hex value cannot capture it. Treat the swatch as the base color only.
Pegboards and sizes for Hama 35 Neon Red
Hama 35 Neon Red belongs to Hama Midi fuse beads (5 mm). It fits a 5 mm Midi pegboard (29 × 29 pegs), and because Perler, Artkal S or Nabbi beads are 5 mm too, it can share a board with them.
There is also a mini version, Hama Mini 35 Neon Red (2.5 mm), handy for scaling a design down to about half size.
