No shortage of substitutes here, Caledor Sky from Citadel matches at 83 percent and 3 brands carry a strong same-finish near-match. Color-wise this is a moderate, mid-tone blue leaning cool. For modelling, drop to Eldar Robe in the recesses and step up to Elysium Blue on the edges, both Two Thin Coats paints. Bottom line: run out mid-project and another brand will get you within a shade.
Witching Hour Blue equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Two Thin Coats Witching Hour Blue cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest Citadel equivalent: Citadel Caledor Sky, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.4).
Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Navy Blue, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.5).
Nearest in the Green Stuff World catalog: Green Stuff World Summersea Blue, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.8).
Best AK Interactive option: AK Interactive Lilac, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 4.6).
Worth knowing before you swap: Citadel Caledor Sky runs clearly more muted and warmer, which shows most where the paint thins over raised detail.
