HI [USER=139166]@harrison121[/USER]
I that it is more the art of selections as there are many ways to go about creating a selection.
Here is another way.

- Duplicate the Layer for creating a mask
- Using Magic wand (at relatively low tolerance setting) select the red boundary and fill it with black

- Delete the selection and make a selection in the area of between the black and the red (now black) outer boundary with a fairly high tolerance setting (I used 192) to catch all the variations of white in that area.

- Then just delete the temporary Layer used to create the selection and there you go. You could fill any color into that selection in the original Layer or in a sepearte Layer depending on your needs.

Lots of ways to go about it. Hope this gives you a direction to consider.
