Opaque acrylicVallejo Model Color

Blue Green sits in the teal family: mid-tone in tone, vivid in saturation, cool in cast. For modelling, drop to Aquamarine in the recesses and step up to Pastel Blue on the edges, both Vallejo paints. Blue Green is a little less common: the closest same-finish match, Monument Pro Acryl Turquoise, reaches 82 percent, and 1 other brand carries a strong same-finish alternative. Cross-brand swaps are adjust-on-model territory here, useful as a starting point rather than an exact replacement.

Blue Green equivalents in other ranges

Blue Green is awkward to replace. Treat the matches below as starting points for a mix rather than straight swaps.

Closest Monument Pro Acryl equivalent: Monument Pro Acryl Turquoise, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.6).

Best P3 Paints option: P3 Paints Meredius Blue, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.6).

From Citadel: Citadel Ahriman Blue, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.7).

Scale75's closest color: Scale75 Adriatic Blue, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 6.7).

Worth knowing before you swap: Monument Pro Acryl Turquoise runs slightly darker, which shows most where the paint thins over raised detail.
