How close are they?

ΔE 13.6, fair: the same colour family, but not a straight swap. Green is a little darker, more muted, cooler than Biel-Tan Green. They are different kinds of paint: Citadel Biel-Tan Green is a wash/shade and Green Stuff World Green is an ink, glaze or transparent paint, so they won’t behave the same on the model even where the colour is close.
