Color-wise this is a vivid, very dark red leaning warm. No shortage of substitutes here, Mournfang Brown from Citadel matches at 87 percent and 3 brands carry a strong same-finish near-match. It builds a smooth gradient with Scorched Wood underneath and Sangria Red on the highlights, all in the Green Stuff World line. In practice you can substitute across brands here without anyone noticing at arm's length.
Redwood Brown equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Green Stuff World Redwood Brown cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Citadel equivalent: Citadel Mournfang Brown, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.6).
Best Monument Pro Acryl option: Monument Pro Acryl Burnt Sienna, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.7).
From P3 Paints: P3 Paints Sul Red, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.7).
The Two Thin Coats pick: Two Thin Coats Berserker Red, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.3).
Check it on a spare model first, because Citadel Mournfang Brown sits slightly warmer and more saturated than the original and the difference grows over large flat panels.
