If I have 1/2 cup of glue consistency Royal icing it takes about 30 drops of Chefmaster Liqua-Gel Red Red to achieve what I would consider 'Red'. Does this sound right? I never expected I would have to use SO MANY drops.

Not sure, as I never count drops anymore and each person's concept of "red" is different. But the Chefmaster reds are notorious for drying A LOT darker than they appear in the wet icing, so it may be you can get away with less.
