Jungle Canopy colour scheme for miniatures

Hunters of the deep jungle: emerald leaves, spotted ochre pelts and bright turquoise beads.

Tip: Paint pelt spots with the shade of the base colour, not black, so they look natural.

Below is each colour in the scheme with the closest paint in every major brand. Metal colours are matched to metallic paints, the rest to opaque paints. ΔE is how far the paint is from the target colour: under about 6 is close, over about 15 is loose. These are worked out from swatch estimates, so check the real paints before you start.
