TT Combat to Pro Acryl Paint Converter
Pro Acryl sits at the premium end of the hobby-paint market where TT Combat sits at the accessible end. Converting between them is usually less about replacing a collection and more about deciding which handful of colours justify the upgrade, and which TT Combat pots are already doing the job well.
Our TT Combat to Pro Acryl converter maps every TT Combat paint to its closest Pro Acryl equivalent. Pro Acryl is a deliberately compact range built around high pigment load, smooth flow and a matt finish. TT Combat's own range is 144 colours strong, sold in 17 ml pots. The converter compares hex values directly, so results reflect measured colour rather than marketing names, and the four nearest options are always shown.
Measured across the full catalogue, 144 TT Combat paints are compared with 66 Pro Acryl colours. 16 resolve to a very close match (distance 12 or lower) and 24 fall past 40 and involve a real compromise. The median sits at 25.9, which gives a sense of how well the two ranges line up overall.

Frequently asked questions
What is the closest Pro Acryl equivalent to a TT Combat paint?
Our converter measures the hex value of every TT Combat paint against the full Pro Acryl range and returns the four nearest options, ranked by colour distance. Of the 144 TT Combat paints in our database, 16 have a Pro Acryl match within a colour distance of 12.
Are TT Combat and Pro Acryl 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 TT Combat paint have an exact Pro Acryl match?
The two ranges were developed independently, so exact matches are the exception rather than the rule. 24 of the 144 TT Combat paints here sit more than 40 colour-distance units from their nearest Pro Acryl option, which is why every result shows its score and hex swatch so you can judge the compromise yourself.
