Need Paint Pot Help: Citadel Nauseating Blue from the 90's

So I'm about to start painting my Cygnar from Warmachine and decide that my favorite color to paint them with is Citadel Nauseating Blue. Only problem is that the pot is from the 90's and is only half full. I'm pretty certain that if I start painting ALL of my army this color i'm going to run out.

Does anyone know an alternative? The Reaper Sick Blue is out of production (i was told elsewhere that was the best alternative). I've tried Reaper Arthurian Blue, Clear Purple, and Imperial Purple. All of these were suggested and none of them are even close.

Help?

(No comments relating to the buying or selling of said paint in a discussion forum please.)

Thanks

I'm jogging my memory here, and drawing a blank.

Someone here knows, I'm sure, what the company name was that made Citadel's paint, back in the 90's. Last time I heard, they were still making those paints under their own name and colors. If you can find out who that is, you can check out their site (presuming they're still in business).

It was Coat d'Arms, and Black Hat Miniatures still distributes them.

Nauseous Blue is the equivalent colour name, #162.

GW had a color chart showing old names and new names. I can't find my copy, it's burried somewhere on my desk. :-)

Ive seen it, but the color itself was discontinued.
