In the pot, Vomit reads as a warm orange, very light and vivid. Within the Vallejo range it ladders cleanly, Flat Yellow for the shadows and Ice Yellow for the highlights. This color is somewhat distinctive: 1 brand offers a strong same-finish match, The Army Painter Inner Light closest at 84 percent. Any substitute is a mixing base rather than a drop-in, so tune it on the model.
Vomit equivalents and near misses
Fair warning: nothing matches Vallejo Vomit cleanly. The options below are the least bad, and every one of them drifts.
Closest The Army Painter equivalent: The Army Painter Inner Light, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.3).
Nearest in the AK Interactive catalog: AK Interactive Radiant Flesh, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.1).
Best Citadel option: Citadel Flayed One Flesh, a usable stand-in rather than a twin (delta E 5.1).
From Two Thin Coats: Two Thin Coats Cerberus Brown, workable at tabletop distance, not up close (delta E 5.9).
The honest caveat: The Army Painter Inner Light dries clearly cooler and more muted than Vomit, so expect recess shading and edge highlights to shift with it.
