This is a very useful chart if you just want to quickly look up a color to see what the new color name is. This is your ultimate guide and chart for converting the old citadel paint line into their new names.įirstly, let’s start with the conversion chart directly from citadel. This blogpost with some actual swatches of Vallejo triads might help get you in the ballpark.Looking for an easy way to convert the old citadel paints into the new ones? I'm at work (where we have Vallejo) and my GW's are home, so I can't compare them head-to-head. But that was 10 years ago, so maybe there weren't any? In hindsight now I wish I had just sought out some Vallejo tutorials.


I pretty much gave up after my first attempt at minipainting and gave it another shot after I bit the bullet and bought GW paints and had some success. He does have a Stormcast video, not sure about anything Khorne, though. Dr Faust's Painting Clinic on Youtube is good place to start but he doesn't do that much GW stuff but you might be able to figure out some Mid-shade-highlight triads you can use. My advice is to find some tutorials that use Vallejo and go from there. For instance Beige Red and Brown Rose are practically identical in value and they have them as a mid and a highlight fleshtone. I nearly drove myself crazy my first try at minipainting by trying to convert GW to Vallejo and then follow GW/White Dwarf tutorials.
