The closest match to Vallejo Purple in every other range, nearest first.

Vallejo Purple is a mid-toned, moderately saturated blue. Only one range matches it closely enough to swap without thinking: Mr. Hobby MS Deep Green, ΔE 1.2. 25 of the 28 other ranges have nothing within ΔE 5, so a substitution from those will read as a different colour.
