ΔE 10.0, fair: the same colour family, but not a straight swap. Mars Black is a little lighter than Nuln Oil. They are different kinds of paint: Citadel Nuln Oil is a wash/shade and Golden Mars Black 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 10). Mars Black is a little lighter than Nuln Oil. They are different kinds of paint.
The same difference applies the other way round: Nuln Oil is a little darker.
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.
