How close are they?

ΔE 3.6, very close: most people won’t see a difference side by side. Our swatches for the two are almost the same. They are different kinds of paint: AMMO by Mig Earth is an opaque base/layer paint and Army Painter Warm Skin Tone is a wash/shade, so they won’t behave the same on the model even where the colour is close.

Can I use Warm Skin Tone instead of Earth?

Yes, for most jobs. Very close match (ΔE 4). The swatches are almost the same. They are different kinds of paint.

Can I use Earth instead of Warm Skin Tone?

The same difference applies the other way round.

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.
