It definitely doesn't match the color on the real model that I see with my eyes, either purely as an RGB color, applied to geometry in LDView (with any of LDView's lighting options), or in your high-quality render. Your render seems to match the color I see in LDView.

I always create the stickers for any model I build (if they're not already in the library), but it's entirely possible that the stickers I'm creating wouldn't be OMR-compliant if I were to submit them. Is that the main reason people don't bother with the stickers—because there's no officially "acceptable" way to create them? Or is it just that most modelers don't undertake the extra effort?

I've used a couple of different methods, both involving Studio Part Designer. For set 5550 I applied patterns directly to the parts that are meant to receive stickers. Then I realized that a bona-fide sticker part should be its own thing, made up of a box primitive with a pattern applied to it, so I did that for the "data sheet" sticker in set 7181. (I've attached both files—would either of these be acceptable in the OMR?)

Looking at them now, I realize I never made them cross-compatible between Studio/Part Designer and LDraw—and indeed, the sticker (or patterned) parts I have created don't appear in LDCad. So I've got more of that process to look into; perhaps then I'll realize why most modelers avoid it. :-)

So any textures will be lost when 'exporting' to LDraw.

Attached the model with correct embedding. I made embedding with LDCad, first removed "42088 - " prefix using file->cleanup detect. Then File -> cleanup -> Check "embed unofficial part AND add prefix -> use OMR.. button and key in 42088 set number.

Roland, would there be a way to properly embed part without removing prefix first?

And otherwise, I also got the buggy '42088 - s\4716s03.dat' when I tried to embed the wormscrew directly by right-click on it -> reorganize -> embed unofficial content -> fill in '42088 - ' as prefix. Roland, I guess this is a bug
