Silver Drop vs Scree
Where Silver Drop belongs to Behr's range, Scree is a Little Greene color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Silver Drop (LRV 70) reflects noticeably more light than Scree (LRV 10), a difference of 60 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Silver Drop runs yellow while Scree is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Silver Drop vs Scree in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Silver Drop and Scree are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Silver Drop will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Scree would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Silver Drop reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Scree.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Silver Drop returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Silver Drop reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Scree.

Silver Drop vs Scree Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Silver Drop on one side and Scree on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
