blending epoxy dyes to get desired Garnet color

I am attempting to build a number of rods using Gamecock colors of garnet and black for the guide wrapping and I want to use the same color scheme in some decorative marbling. Since they don't sell a Garnet dye I was wondering if I can mix CRB red with blue pigments together to make what looks close to a garnet color (RGB: (115,0,10)) and then just use that pigment mix to color my epoxy?

Most likely, yes.

If it was me I'd look at the Voo Doo pigments instead, red wine metallics, two different plum colors, much better variety.
