This one is hard to match, with nothing in another brand landing close in the same finish, the nearest being Pastel Blue from AK Interactive at 82 percent in a different finish class. Pastel Seafoam is a very light moderate green with a cool undertone. For modelling, drop to Battleship Grey in the recesses and step up to Holy White on the edges, both The Army Painter paints. For a true match, stick with the original; cross-brand substitutes will read as a different color.
