Scale 75 Paints Equivalents

[Old Mini Junky]

Hi All,

First Post and I need a little help.

Does anyone know what the GW equivalent is for the following Scale 75 paints?

Eclipse grey
Gobi brown
Sahara yellow
Terne yellow

White sands

many thanks

there is no 100% match, but about the closest as I see:
eclipse grey - driad bark(base) (I'd add a bit of black and blue to it)
gobi brown - gorthor brown(layer) or steel legion drab (base)
sahara yellow - tallarn sand (layer) or averland sunset(base) with a bit of grey to make it less vibrant
terne yellow - screaming skull(layer) bit with a bit yellow added or tyrant skull(dry)
white sands - nothing close. I'd take the screaming skull and a lot of white mix or kisley flesh with a lot of white mixed in

but the question is: why not buy these colors from scale75 and use them. They can be used with other gw paints together. (Or dare I suggest: get rid of the gw paints and use scale75s )

Thanks for that.

I have lots of GW paints and don't want to buy anything else unless I need to. once I start running out f bits I will defiantly try other producers though.

but yeah your help is appreciated.

I had that thought too but i keep coming back to GW. Reason: I love trying new paints but when your scale 75 runs out or you can't get that vallejo color because it's out of stock do you want to wait 4-6 weeks or pay an arm an a leg for shipping a few bottles? I find that the reason i have stuck with mainly GW is that i can find it locally all the time so if i run out of a color it isn't a big wait or expense to replace it. That said i try a lot of new paints and there are some great ones out there for sure so try away! Reaper and P3 are great too.
