Color-wise this is a moderate, very light yellow leaning cool. It builds a smooth gradient with Pale Emerald Green underneath and Vanilla Ice Cream on the highlights, all in the Scale75 line. Substitutes are thinner on the ground; Two Thin Coats Pestilence Green is the nearest same-finish option at 85 percent, with 1 brand in strong-match range. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Bile Green equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Scale75 Bile Green cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Two Thin Coats equivalent: Two Thin Coats Pestilence Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.0).
Nearest in the The Army Painter catalog: The Army Painter Afterglow, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.6).
Best Green Stuff World option: Green Stuff World Canary Green, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.1).
From Vallejo: Vallejo Moss And Lichen, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 7.7).
The honest caveat: Two Thin Coats Pestilence Green dries slightly cooler and more muted than Bile Green, so expect recess shading and edge highlights to shift with it.
