GW's new paint to old paint matching chart

[dwez]

Has a matching chart been created for new and old GW paints? I need to know which paints replace some of the ones I currently use or whether to check my local independent stockist as they still have paints in the old hexagon shaped bottles so I'm sure I'll be able to get Mechrite Red for the foreseable future, cheers.

i was looking for this as well, thanks Captainparty. wonder if theres a return to midnight blue in the new range? my WOC and Tyranids both used it as a primary colour.

Keep in mind though that it specifically states "... you'll get the best match from the new paint range...".
So it's not necessarily the very same colour. I know this to be the case for Dark Angels green and Caliban green, they actually differ quite a bit. I'm sure that this is the case for quite a couple of the other colours as well.

I had a sneak peak of the whole range the other day, the chart really doesn't do justice to a lot of the colours on there, there are few lovely deep, dark blues in there, Kantor blue is lovely, not sure if its dark enough for you!

did anyone notice that "the fang" is listed as both shadow grey and fenris grey?.... this makes me even more nervous, as fenris grey is my main color in my army.... i could only stockpile 5 pots too! eeek
