Two Thin Coats to Scale75 Paint Converter
Scale75's Games and Artist lines are prized for a dense, matt finish that behaves quite differently from Two Thin Coats' tutorial-friendly formula, so painters usually reach for this conversion to chase that finish on a specific colour rather than to replace the whole triad system Two Thin Coats is built around.
Our Two Thin Coats to Scale75 converter maps every shadow, midtone and highlight (S/M/H) paint across all three Two Thin Coats waves to its closest Scale75 equivalent using measured RGB colour distance. Scale75's Games and Artist lines are known for heavy pigment and a strongly matt finish that suits blending and non-metallic metal work, a different painting character from Two Thin Coats even where the hex values land close together.
All 123 Two Thin Coats paints in our database are measured against 133 Scale75 colours. 14 land within a very close match (a colour distance of 12 or less) and 15 sit beyond 40, which are the ones worth testing on a palette before you commit. The median distance across the range is 25.0.

Frequently asked questions
What is the closest Scale75 equivalent to a Two Thin Coats paint?

Are Two Thin Coats and Scale75 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 Two Thin Coats paint have an exact Scale75 match?
The two ranges were developed independently, so exact matches are the exception rather than the rule. 15 of the 123 Two Thin Coats paints here sit more than 40 colour-distance units from their nearest Scale75 option, which is why every result shows its score and hex swatch so you can judge the compromise yourself.
