Humbrol to Italeri paint conversion chart
Every Humbrol paint with its closest Italeri equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 112 rows, sorted by name.
56 of the 112 Humbrol colours below have an equivalent in Italeri within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 15 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 5.1. The 56 gaps are not spread evenly: 13 of them are yellows, so that is the corner of the Humbrol range Italeri does not answer.
