Reaper User Vaitalla Posted September 30, 2005 Reaper User Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Ummm, are you psychic? I just logged on here to post exactly that!! I don't have the item numbers for the GW paints, and I know I've missed a few (which I'll correct when I have a sec, this list was constructed from my often-faulty memory), but they're listed by name in color groupings (browns all together, blues all together, etc.) so hopefully that will help. Without further ado... Skull White: Pure White 9039 Chaos Black: Pure Black 9037 Scab Red: Mahogany Brown 9070 is closest (browner) or 9001 Red Brick (purpler). A mix of these would probably be the best of both worlds and match really, really close. Red Gore: Deep Red 9002 is close Blood Red: Clear Red 9094 Blazing Orange: Phoenix Red 9005 Fiery Orange: Clear Orange 9130 Golden Yellow: Marigold Yellow 9007 Sunlight Yellow: Sunlight Yellow 9008 Bad Moon Yellow: Clear Yellow 9095 Bilious Green: Spring Green 9146 Scorpion Green: Moth Green 9145 Goblin Green: Field Green 9167 is close Snot Green: Clear Green 9096 Dark Angels Green: Pine Green 9010 is close, or mix Swamp Green 9175 with some Clear Green 9096. Camo Green: Camoflage Green 9177 Catachan Green: Military Green 9176 Scaly Green/Jade Green etc.: The Reptilian Greens Triad 9184/9185/9186 Hawk Turquoise: Marine Teal 9077 is close Ice Blue: Mix Clear Blue 9097 with Pure White 9039 to match Lightning Blue: Sky Blue 9018 is close Enchanted Blue: Cyan Blue 9117 or Sapphire Blue 9016 are close Ultramarines Blue: Ultramarine Highlight 9189 Storm Blue: Ritterlich Blue 9115 Midnight Blue: Ultramarine Shadow 9187 Regal Blue: Brilliant Blue 9116 Nauseating Blue: Deep Amethyst 9079 Tentacle Pink: Close would be Pale Violet 9027 with a drop of white added Warlock Purple: Clear Magenta 9098 Liche Purple: Clear Plum 9132 Imperial Purple: Clear Purple 9099 Codex Grey: Rainy Grey 9038 Shadow Grey: Twilight Blue 9020 Space Wolves Grey: Snow Shadow 9021 is close Ghostly Grey: Ghost White 9063 Bleached Bone: Yellowed Bone 9143 Bubonic Brown: Tanned Leather 9031 Vomit Brown: Burnt Orange 9111; Leather Brown 9030 if you want it more brown Beastial Brown: Intense Brown 9138 Scorched Brown: Blackened Brown 9137 Snakebite Leather: Half-orc Highlight 9204 Leprous Brown: Saffron Sunset 9182 Vermin Brown: Chestnut Brown 9071 is close; a 50/50 mix of this and 9072 Rust Brown is close to perfect Rotting Flesh: Bloodless Skin 9150 is very close Elf Flesh: Rosy Highlight 9069 Bronzed Flesh: This color is very orange, and alarmingly close to Burnt Orange 9111; however, I prefer a more natural skintone, 9044 Tanned Skin, as a substitute for this one. If you want more warmth, mix 50/50 Tanned Skin 9044 with Golden Shadow 9091. Dwarf Flesh: Rosy Shadow 9067 Dark Flesh: Dark Skin 9041 would be closest. Add a drop of Ruddy Leather 9109 to deepen the color. Burnished Gold: New Gold 9051 Shining Gold: Antique Gold 9050 Dwarf Bronze: Ancient Bronze 9049 Brazen Brass: Tarnished Brass 9198 Tin Bitz: Scorched Metal 9125 Mithril Silver: Polished Silver 9054 Chainmail: Honed Steel 9053 Boltgun Metal: Shadowed Steel 9052 Newer or previously neglected GW Colors: Graveyard Earth: Uniform Brown 9127 is close, as is a 50/50 mix of 9161 Shield Brown and 9162 Driftwood Brown (though the latter is a little more grey) Kommando Khaki: Terran Khaki triad is close Fortress Grey: Misty Grey 9090 or Icy Grey 9174 may be close Terracotta: Terracotta Clay 9170 is close Desert Yellow: Dune Shadow 9154 is closest Tanned Flesh: Fired Clay 9171 is closest Who's your favoritest Anne of all time?? For those of you who use Vallejo Game Colors, you'll find these are fairly close equivalents; the Vallejos always seem to vary from the GW's they're meant to match, so it's hard to peg both perfectly. Hope that helped, --Anne 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TragicNut Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hello everyone, I'm new here, and the reason I'm here is because I need to replace a lot of my GW paints which have dried up and I've heard good things about reaper paints. The only wrinkle is I've got an Iron Warriors army and I need to make sure the paints match since I really don't want to repaint a good portion of my army to match any new work. So I went and searched for a Reaper to GW chart and a Vallejo to GW chart, and in doing so also found a Vallejo to Reaper chart as a bonus. So I created a spreadsheet to mash both charts together, and came up with a pretty comprehensive result. However, some of the Vallejo to Reaper chart contradicts the GW to Reaper chart, so, I have to ask, which is right?

Joe Kutz Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 It depends on the bottle of paint you are comparing it to - the light that you are comparing it under - and the angle which you are viewing it under (as well as a few dozen other even more subjective variables)... You might find this useful as well: This. Also - there is this little guy that I have been slowly working on: Individual Colors Complete Paint Lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldarchy Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 For those of you who have the color equivalency chart but didn't put it in alphabetical order . . .

Delthos Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Here's probably one of the best sites I've found for color matching between different paint brands. You put in the starting color you want to match, then using some color matching algorithms it matches that color to other colors in his database. He has scanned in samples of a great number of paints, even some long out of print ones and used some color software to analyze them. If he is missing a color that you have, you can help him out by sending him some color samples and the paint information. It really is one of the best sites I know. When using these tools, you can also enter the Hexcode for a color if you know it and find paints that match it. I hope you can figure them out without a user guide, they are easy enough to use. This one is the color match tool for a specific color paint. http://colors.silicon-dragons.com/ This one is for matching an entire line of paints. http://colors.silicon-dragons.com/full_line.php This one is good for finding the different shades of a color so you can find good shade and highlight colors. http://colors.silicon-dragons.com/shades/shades.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVASAR Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Hello Reaper Community, Is there a conversion chart that would cross reference Reaper Master Series to the Liquitex line of artist’s colors? I am looking to replace the following Liquitex colors with RMS very soon, but want to do so correctly. Here's the list.... Liquitex # Liquitex Name Relative Chroma Opacity * MIX 116 Alizarin Crimson RP ^ RR YR Transp. 127 Burnt Sienna RR ^ YR YY Opaque 128 Burnt Umber RR Y^R YY Opaque 150 Cadmium Orange RR ^ YR YY Opaque 152 Cadmium Red Light PR RR ^ YR Opaque 160 Cadmium Yellow Light YR YY ^ YG Opaque 159 Cadmium Yell.

Vermilion Hue RR Y^R YY ? *(242+292) * The last five colors in this list are not usually available in acrylic color, and are generally only available in artist's oils. They can however be produced through a mixture. If anyone is familiar enough with traditional artist colors, I would greatly appreciate your help converting my palete. FYI- I have already tried many of the paint equivalency charts and sites; for some reason Liquitex is never listed. Thanks for your help, AVASAR Ps- Sorry if this post ends up oddly formatted; this is my first post . Also, if it would be easier, I have this list in an excel document including the actual pigments used. (???) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
