Evergreen Fog sits in the grey family: dark in tone, muted in saturation, cool in cast. No shortage of substitutes here, French Army Green from AK Interactive matches at 95 percent and 3 brands carry a strong same-finish near-match. For modelling, drop to Bootstrap Brown in the recesses and step up to Army Green on the edges, both The Army Painter paints. In practice you can substitute across brands here without anyone noticing at arm's length.
Evergreen Fog equivalents in other ranges
Several ranges orbit this color without landing on it. Here is the closest each brand manages, nearest first:
- Closest AK Interactive equivalent: AK Interactive French Army Green, close enough that batch variation matters more (delta E 1.1).
- Revell's closest color: Revell Greyish blue/Blaugrau (RAL 7031), close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.1).
- Nearest in the Vallejo catalog: Vallejo German Uniform, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.1).
- Best Humbrol option: Humbrol WW1 Green, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 4.2).
- From Two Thin Coats: Two Thin Coats Wyvern Green, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.7).
- Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Ardenes Green, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.5).
Side by side the two agree in lightness and temperature; at delta E 1.1 the gap is smaller than the variation between two pots of the same paint.
