Radiant Flesh sits in the orange family: light in tone, vivid in saturation, warm in cast. For modelling, drop to Sand Yellow in the recesses and step up to Beige on the edges, both AK Interactive paints. This color is somewhat distinctive: 2 brands offer a strong same-finish match, The Army Painter Inner Light closest at 86 percent. Cross-brand swaps are adjust-on-model territory here, useful as a starting point rather than an exact replacement.
Radiant Flesh equivalents in other ranges
Radiant Flesh is awkward to replace. Treat the matches below as starting points for a mix rather than straight swaps.
Closest The Army Painter equivalent: The Army Painter Inner Light, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.7).
Best Revell option: Revell African Brown, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.6).
From Vallejo: Vallejo Skin Tone, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.5).
Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Survival Skin, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.3).
Check it on a spare model first, because The Army Painter Inner Light sits slightly lighter and warmer than the original and the difference grows over large flat panels.
