Cross-brand swaps do not really exist for Waystone Green; the closest color anywhere, Monument Pro Acryl Sap Green at 90 percent, sits in a different finish class, so it is a reference not a substitute. Color-wise this is a vivid, very dark green leaning cool. For highlights, the next step up in the Citadel range is Typhus Corrosion. If you need this exact color, buy the pot, since no other line reproduces it in the same finish.
Waystone Green equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Citadel Waystone Green cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Monument Pro Acryl equivalent: Monument Pro Acryl Sap Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.1), but it is an opaque acrylic so treat it as a color reference, not a swap.
Revell's closest color: Revell Sea green/Moosgrün (RAL 6005), a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.0), but it is an opaque acrylic so treat it as a color reference, not a swap.
Nearest in the The Army Painter catalog: The Army Painter Emerald Forest, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.2), but it is an opaque acrylic so treat it as a color reference, not a swap.
Best Tamiya option: Tamiya Deep Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.7), but it is an opaque acrylic so treat it as a color reference, not a swap.
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 2.1 rather than an obvious shift.
