This one is hard to match, with nothing in another brand landing close in the same finish, the nearest being Gunner Camo from The Army Painter at 65 percent in a different finish class. Dark Angels Green sits in the teal family: dark in tone, vivid in saturation, cool in cast. Highlight it toward Aeldari Emerald, the nearest lighter paint in the Citadel lane. For a true match, stick with the original; cross-brand substitutes will read as a different color.
