Paint match for current British Army green

Armor/AFV
1

Over the years, I have tended to use Humbrol 86 (Olive) and Revell 9 (Anthracite) to replicate the NATO green and black on British Army Cold War-era vehicles. With careful weathering, these two colours seem to work (for me at least). Can anyone suggest a suitable Humbrol or Revell match for the current green used on British Army vehicles? It appears to be a much darker shade.
Of course, most modellers use acrylics nowadays, but I am more comfortable with enamels. Also, being a dedicated small-scale modeller, I rely on brush-painting, rather than airbrushing.

Thanks,

Paul

Used this a few times, not checked if still available.

Frank,

Yes, I’m familiar with this brand, so I’ll check if the colour is still in production.

Thanks,

Paul

It isn’t. The Colourcoats range was taken over by Sovereign 2000 some years ago, but they discontinued them too.
