Hetzer paint scheme

What type of green would you guys say is on the Hetzer? I need something that will match it quite good.

well that all depends if you are an enamel or acrylic guy.
i myself would use XF-61 Dark Green by tamiya. I am a taiya guy because I can buy less and always find a mix recipe on the internet for all color. Plus it cleans up with denatured alcohol and is amazingly easy on my airbrush.

I jumped into this thread because I am going to repaint mine 5 different schemes as I buy them.
first up is this one (and you can find the color designations for this model in the review for the yellow and brown as well)
