To mix mint green (#A8D5BA) in acrylic, use 50% Titanium White, 46% Viridian Green and 4% Yellow Ochre. Chromilla's model predicts an 88% dry match against the target, scored against its own color model, not a measured paint-out. Chromilla is a web-based paint color mixer that turns any color, from a photo, the camera or a hex code, into exact paint-tube ratios for acrylic, oil and watercolor, using Kubelka-Munk pigment mixing and aiming at the color after it dries.

PY43
Titanium White, Viridian Green, and Yellow Ochre, in roughly a 50:46:4 ratio.
Start with Titanium White at about 50% as your acrylic base, then work in Viridian Green and Yellow Ochre in the order above. Adjust in 5% steps until the swatch reads #A8D5BA.
Mixing Mint Green yourself lets you approximate an expensive or hard to find tube from pigments you already own, match Mint Green across paint brands whose factory tubes differ, and rebuild the exact color when you run out mid painting. The recipe above is the working starting point.
White cools and chalks a mix as you add it, so tint in small steps and stop before it goes pastel.
Each variation is its own target (lighter and darker move OKLCH lightness by 0.08; warmer and cooler turn the hue 12 degrees toward red or blue), solved fresh.
