Paint Equivalents

Mig to Vallejo paint conversion chart

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

238 of the 252 Mig colours below have an equivalent in Vallejo within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 85 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 2.5. The 14 gaps are not spread evenly: 6 of them are greens, so that is the corner of the Mig range Vallejo does not answer.

How close is close enough? Reading the ΔE column

Moving a whole recipe across takes more than one pot. These search the boxed sets each range is sold in.
