Warcolours to Mig paint conversion chart
Every Warcolours paint with its closest Mig equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 174 rows, sorted by name.
60 of the 174 Warcolours colours below have an equivalent in Mig within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 11 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 6.5. The 114 gaps are not spread evenly: 21 of them are blues, so that is the corner of the Warcolours range Mig does not answer.
