Color-wise this is a muted, mid-tone grey leaning cool. This is a common color; 4 other brands cover it, the nearest being Monument Pro Acryl Faded Green at 88 percent. For modelling, drop to Uniform Grey in the recesses and step up to Brush-On Primer on the edges, both The Army Painter paints. Bottom line: run out mid-project and another brand will get you within a shade.
Patagon Pine equivalents, brand by brand
No brand clones Patagon Pine outright, but 2 ranges come close enough to swap. The best candidate from each catalog:
- Closest Monument Pro Acryl equivalent: Monument Pro Acryl Faded Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.3).
- Humbrol's closest color: Humbrol Israeli Light Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.4).
- Nearest in the Tamiya catalog: Tamiya IJN Grey Green 2, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.7).
- Best AK Interactive option: AK Interactive Raf Cockpit Grey-Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.7).
- From Revell: Revell Medium Grey USAF/Mittelgrau, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 4.4).
- The Two Thin Coats pick: Two Thin Coats Field Grey, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 6.4).
The drift here is spread thinly across hue, lightness and saturation rather than leaning one way, so the mismatch reads as a general haze at delta E 2.3 rather than an obvious shift.
