Cold Green equivalents in other ranges
No brand clones Cold Green outright, but 2 ranges come close enough to swap. The best candidate from each catalog:
- Closest Vallejo equivalent: Vallejo Foul Green, close enough that batch variation matters more (delta E 1.8).
- Best Humbrol option: Humbrol Green, a swap nobody spots at arm's length (delta E 1.9).
- From The Army Painter: The Army Painter Guardian Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.8).
- Monument Pro Acryl's closest color: Monument Pro Acryl Bright Jade, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
- Nearest in the Scale75 catalog: Scale75 Boreal Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.9).
- Best Revell option: Revell Patina green/Patinagrün (RAL 6000), a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.9).
Side by side the two agree in lightness and temperature; at delta E 1.8 the gap is smaller than the variation between two pots of the same paint.
