In the pot, Ivory reads as a warm orange, light and muted. No shortage of substitutes here, Cement from Tamiya matches at 94 percent and 4 brands carry a strong same-finish near-match. It builds a smooth gradient with Bright Pale Green underneath and Heavy Warm White on the highlights, all in the Monument Pro Acryl line. In practice you can substitute across brands here without anyone noticing at arm's length.

- Closest Tamiya equivalent: Tamiya Cement, a swap nobody spots at arm's length (delta E 1.1).
- Nearest in the Vallejo catalog: Vallejo Deck Tan, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 2.7).
- Best The Army Painter option: The Army Painter Gargoyle Grey, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
- From AK Interactive: AK Interactive Merdc Sand (Fs 30277), a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.2).
- Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Nacre, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 4.9).
- Nearest in the P3 Paints catalog: P3 Paints Drake Grey, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.8).
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.
