Matching it is straightforward: Revell Luminous Orange/Leuchtorange lands at 94 percent in the same finish, and 4 brands in all carry a close same-finish swap. Color-wise this is a vivid, mid-tone orange leaning warm. For modelling, drop to Ferrari Red in the recesses and step up to Orange Lining on the edges, both Humbrol paints. In practice you can substitute across brands here without anyone noticing at arm's length.
Blaze Gloss equivalents, brand by brand
1 of the 10 brands with a mapped match get genuinely close to Humbrol Blaze Gloss, though none is a clone. Brand by brand, the nearest colors are:
- Closest Revell equivalent: Revell Luminous Orange/Leuchtorange, a swap nobody spots at arm's length (delta E 1.3).
- Nearest in the Monument Pro Acryl catalog: Monument Pro Acryl Pyrrole Orange, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.5).
- Best Vallejo option: Vallejo Orange Fire, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.7).
- From AK Interactive: AK Interactive Deep Orange, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.1).
- Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Tengu Red, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 4.8).
- Nearest in the The Army Painter catalog: The Army Painter Lava Orange, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.8).
We checked the Lab numbers for a hidden catch and there is none: lightness and temperature both line up, so this swap is as safe as they come.
