ΔE 11.9, fair: the same colour family, but not a straight swap. Dioxazine Purple is a little lighter, warmer than Kantor Blue. They are different kinds of paint: Citadel Kantor Blue is an opaque base/layer paint and Golden Dioxazine Purple is an ink, glaze or transparent paint, so they won’t behave the same on the model even where the colour is close.
Only where an exact match doesn’t matter, such as a new unit or a highlight. Fair match (ΔE 12). Dioxazine Purple is a little lighter, warmer than Kantor Blue. They are different kinds of paint.
The same difference applies the other way round: Kantor Blue is a little darker, cooler.
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.
