- Best Tamiya option: Tamiya Dark Green, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 2.6).
- From Vallejo: Vallejo Luftwaffe Green, a near match with visible drift up close (delta E 3.8).
- Citadel's closest color: Citadel Death Korps Drab, close, with a hint of drift side by side (delta E 3.8).
