Wwi German Red Brown equivalents, brand by brand
No brand clones Wwi German Red Brown outright, but 3 ranges come close enough to swap. The best candidate from each catalog:
- Closest P3 Paints equivalent: P3 Paints Idrian Flesh, a swap nobody spots at arm's length (delta E 1.8).
- From Vallejo: Vallejo Parasite Brown, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.2).
- Monument Pro Acryl's closest color: Monument Pro Acryl Orange Brown, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.3).
- Nearest in the Revell catalog: Revell Rust, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.4).
- Best The Army Painter option: The Army Painter Tree Ancient, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.8).
- From Tamiya: Tamiya JGSDF Brown, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 7.1).
Check it on a spare model first, because P3 Paints Idrian Flesh sits slightly warmer and more saturated than the original and the difference grows over large flat panels.
