Scorched Wood equivalents, brand by brand
No brand clones Scorched Wood outright, but 1 range comes close enough to swap. The best candidate from each catalog:
- Closest AK Interactive equivalent: AK Interactive S.C.C. No.1A Very Dark Brown, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.3).
- Best Monument Pro Acryl option: Monument Pro Acryl Dark Umber, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.5).
- From P3 Paints: P3 Paints Battlefield Brown, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
- Vallejo's closest color: Vallejo Charred Brown, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.6).
- Nearest in the Scale75 catalog: Scale75 African Shadow, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 6.2).
- Best Citadel option: Citadel Catachan Flesh, only a loose relative (delta E 8.8).
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.
