This one is hard to match, with nothing in another brand landing close in the same finish, the nearest being Fluorescent Signal Green from Humbrol at 56 percent in a different finish class. Light Green sits in the green family: very light in tone, vivid in saturation, cool in cast. To deepen it, Park Green is the darker step in the same Tamiya range. For a true match, stick with the original; cross-brand substitutes will read as a different color.
