Color-wise this is a moderate, mid-tone green leaning cool. It builds a smooth gradient with Emerald green/Smaragdgrün (RAL 6029) underneath and U.S.A.F. Middle Grey/Mittelgrau USAF on the highlights, all in the Revell line. This color is somewhat distinctive: 2 brands offer a strong same-finish match, Two Thin Coats Jade Green closest at 86 percent. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Patina green/Patinagrün (RAL 6000) equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Revell Patina green/Patinagrün (RAL 6000) cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Two Thin Coats equivalent: Two Thin Coats Jade Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.8).
Best Scale75 option: Scale75 Ñañara Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.8).
From Monument Pro Acryl: Monument Pro Acryl Bright Jade, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 4.5).
Vallejo's closest color: Vallejo Foul Green, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.9).
Check it on a spare model first, because Two Thin Coats Jade Green sits slightly cooler than the original and the difference grows over large flat panels.
