Paint Equivalents

Mig to Tamiya paint conversion chart

Every Mig paint with its closest Tamiya equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 252 rows, sorted by name.

153 of the 252 Mig colours below have an equivalent in Tamiya within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 29 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 4.5. The 99 gaps are not spread evenly: 38 of them are yellows, so that is the corner of the Mig range Tamiya does not answer.
