Technical / primerWarpaints Fanatic

Neptune Glow is genuinely hard to match: no other brand has a same-finish equivalent close enough to swap, and the nearest color anywhere, P3 Paints Riven Green at 84 percent, is a different finish. Color-wise this is a moderate, very light teal leaning cool. For modelling, drop to Verdigris in the recesses and step up to Warpaints Stabilizer on the edges, both The Army Painter paints. If you need this exact color, buy the pot, since no other line reproduces it in the same finish.
