In the pot, Clear Green reads as a cool green, light and moderate. Clear Green is a bit distinctive: no other brand carries a strong same-finish match, though The Army Painter Ghoul Green comes nearest at 86 percent. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Clear Green equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches AK Interactive Clear Green cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest The Army Painter equivalent: The Army Painter Ghoul Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.9).
Best Citadel option: Citadel Striking Scorpion Green, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.4).
From Humbrol: Humbrol Clear Green, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.8).
Tamiya's closest color: Tamiya Clear Green, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.8).
Check it on a spare model first, because The Army Painter Ghoul Green sits slightly more saturated and warmer than the original and the difference grows over large flat panels.
