A dry paint substitute only becomes trustworthy once it survives the same primer, base, and highlight sequence as the original recipe.
Looking at the surrounding palette matters because a near match can still push the finished model warmer, colder, or flatter than expected.
That combination of colour distance, finish, and recipe context is what makes a dry paint substitute reliable on an actual miniature.
