Default paint my wagon

Hi Keith,
I read most of Gina's research and the scale of it is impressive.
Paint colours would have to be the biggest worm can in our hobby and every one has an opinion, some are even right.
I have found the further a vehicle is away from Johnny Shinnypants who writes directives, the greater the colour variation.... then next month another directive comes out.

Anywho, I will scan the original door skin to get a colour I'm happy with.
The camo light mud is a shade that I really like, very different to any other colour I've seen on a Military Truck.

This vehicle was supposed to be finished in DBG post war but some one missed the directive and painted it gloss dark olive. Would have looked pretty cool in its day trundling along West Coast Highway.

Plan B, is there a code a paint supplier in WA can use to tint up Kahki J?

Fitted up the rear door lockers, used for storing the Officer's vital equipment, there is also a map holder just above the door.
