Color-wise this is a moderate, light green leaning cool. Shade down into Ogryn Camo, the nearest darker paint in the Citadel line. This color is somewhat distinctive: 1 brand offers a strong same-finish match, Two Thin Coats Goblinoid Green closest at 85 percent. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Orruk Flesh equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Citadel Orruk Flesh cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Two Thin Coats equivalent: Two Thin Coats Goblinoid Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
From Vallejo: Vallejo Acid, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 6.0).
AK Interactive's closest color: AK Interactive Green Sky, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 6.3).
Nearest in the Scale75 catalog: Scale75 Spring Green, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 7.3).
Worth knowing before you swap: Two Thin Coats Goblinoid Green runs slightly darker, which shows most where the paint thins over raised detail.
