Can I use Earth instead of Ink Red?

The same difference applies the other way round: Earth is noticeably lighter, much more muted, warmer.

ΔE is the colour difference between our two swatch estimates: under about 6 is close, over about 15 is loose. Real paints also differ in finish, coverage and how they thin, so test before you commit.
