Hi Folks,
I've been dipping into Vallejo Xpress for certain parts of my Troggoth project, departing from my usual Citadel collection. I opted for Lizard Green for the skin of my troggoths, and, while I love the colour, it doesn't match any of the greens I have from citadel for neatening up the skin and a popping highlight for details.

I was wondering if you guys had any advice for what paints might do the job here. In Citadel, I don't have Warboss Green or Skarsnik Green, which look like they ... might do the job. But I can't tell. And while Warboss seems ok, I'm not sure I love Skarsnik for a highlight regardless.

But I'm quite happy to look in the Xpress Game Colour Range. From what I can see on the website, Angel Green looks light it might be ok for neatening the raised skin, but I can't tell. And I have no idea what would be the appropriate detail highlight colour of Lizard Green's hue would be. Scorpy Green, maybe? I can't tell.

Any help in matching paints for Lizard Green would be hugely helpful!

I've no direct advice for you as I'm not familiar with the colours myself, but it might be worth your while give Jaun Hidalgo Miniatures on youtube a look. He helped develop the Xpress range and might have mentioned somewhere what colours work well with what.
