Paint Equivalents

Tom Color to Foundry paint conversion chart

Every Tom Color paint with its closest Foundry equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 271 rows, sorted by name.

235 of the 271 Tom Color colours below have an equivalent in Foundry within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 57 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 3.2. The 36 gaps are not spread evenly: 11 of them are yellows, so that is the corner of the Tom Color range Foundry 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.
