Paint Equivalents

Golden to Vallejo paint conversion chart

Every Golden paint with its closest Vallejo equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 346 rows, sorted by name.

312 of the 346 Golden colours below have an equivalent in Vallejo within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 117 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 2.5. The 34 gaps are not spread evenly: 15 of them are blues, so that is the corner of the Golden range Vallejo does not answer.
