About this Citadel chart
Citadel organizes paint by intended job: Base, Layer, Shade, Contrast, Technical and Air. This chart lists the 298 Citadel paints in our catalog with an approximate digital swatch, hex value and paint type, grouped by range.
Citadel names do not line up with other brands. If you are replacing a color with Vallejo, The Army Painter or another range, use the conversion links to shortlist nearby digital colors, then check paint type and test the result.

Compare the stored digital colors in each brand. Matches account for broad paint type, but a close color score does not establish the same sheen or painting behavior.
Common questions
Is this an official Citadel paint chart?
This is an independent reference covering 298 Citadel paints in our catalog. Its swatches are approximate digital values, and the cross-brand matches are computed by Basecoat Lab. It is not a Games Workshop chart or a set of physically tested paint matches.
How many Citadel paints are on this chart?
Our catalog holds 298 colors across 6 ranges: Base, Layer, Shade, Contrast, Technical and Air. It covers the ranges we track, rather than every current or discontinued Citadel product.
What is the difference between Base and Layer paints?
Base paints carry heavier pigment so one or two coats cover a primed model; Layer paints are thinner and slightly translucent, made for building highlights over a base coat rather than covering on their own.
Can I get these hex values for my own project?
Yes — every swatch on this chart shows its hex value, and each color's own page carries the same value with its closest matches in other brands.
