Make two colors the same

[LennartMeier]

I'm relatively new to GIMP, so I apologize in advance if my question is silly. I have found the following pictures of a sphere and of an ellipsoid 


I would like to change the color of the ellipsoid to that of the sphere and I tried to rotate colors. The best I managed to do is the following: 

While the color is somewhat similar to that of the sphere, it doesn't really make the visual impression to me of the same color. Is there any method to improve this?

Try Colors > Colorize

Click on the color swatch and set the color you require.
