In the pot, Enchanted Pink reads as a cool pink, mid-tone and moderate. Within the The Army Painter range it ladders cleanly, Wicked Pink for the shadows and Impish Rouge for the highlights. This color is somewhat distinctive: 1 brand offers a strong same-finish match, Vallejo Squid Pink closest at 86 percent. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Enchanted Pink equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches The Army Painter Enchanted Pink cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Vallejo equivalent: Vallejo Squid Pink, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.9).
Best Green Stuff World option: Green Stuff World Majin Pink, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 7.1).
From AK Interactive: AK Interactive Intense Pink, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 7.3).
The Two Thin Coats pick: Two Thin Coats Hot Pink, only a loose relative (delta E 8.6).
Worth knowing before you swap: Vallejo Squid Pink runs slightly warmer, which shows most where the paint thins over raised detail.
