Grey Green is a light moderate yellow with a warm undertone. For modelling, drop to Ral 8020 Braun in the recesses and step up to Mustard Yellow on the edges, both AK Interactive paints. Substitutes are thinner on the ground; Citadel Zandri Dust is the nearest same-finish option at 88 percent, with 2 brands in strong-match range. A cross-brand swap will get you most of the way, but eyeball it against the original first.
