Verdigris is genuinely hard to match: no other brand has a same-finish equivalent close enough to swap, and the nearest color anywhere, Citadel Nihilakh Oxide at 66 percent, is a different finish. Color-wise this is a moderate, mid-tone teal leaning cool. For highlights, the next step up in the The Army Painter range is Neptune Glow. If you need this exact color, buy the pot, since no other line reproduces it in the same finish.
