Scale75 to TT Combat Paint Converter
Scale75's Games and Artist lines run darker and more muted than most wargaming ranges. Finding TT Combat equivalents is a practical way to reproduce a Scale75 recipe with paints that cost noticeably less per pot.
Our Scale75 to TT Combat converter maps every Scale75 paint to its closest TT Combat equivalent. TT Combat's own range is 144 colours strong, sold in 17 ml pots. Scale75's Games and Artist lines are known for dense pigment and a strongly matt finish that suits blending and non-metallic metal work. Matches are ranked by measured colour distance with the score shown on each row — a low number means a near drop-in substitute, a high one means a deliberate compromise.
The comparison runs 133 Scale75 paints against 144 TT Combat colours. 23 come back as very close matches at a distance of 12 or under, while 21 exceed 40 and should be treated as approximations. Median distance across the whole range is 23.4.

Frequently asked questions
What is the closest TT Combat equivalent to a Scale75 paint?
Our converter measures the hex value of every Scale75 paint against the full TT Combat range and returns the four nearest options, ranked by colour distance. Of the 133 Scale75 paints in our database, 23 have a TT Combat match within a colour distance of 12.
Are Scale75 and TT Combat paints compatible on the same miniature?
Yes. Both are water-based acrylics and can be layered over one another without any special preparation. Mixing brands on a single model is common practice; the main thing to watch is finish, since ranges vary in how matt they dry.
Why doesn’t every Scale75 paint have an exact TT Combat match?
The two ranges were developed independently, so exact matches are the exception rather than the rule. 21 of the 133 Scale75 paints here sit more than 40 colour-distance units from their nearest TT Combat option, which is why every result shows its score and hex swatch so you can judge the compromise yourself.
