Via Telus loco colour

I know I am going to have to mix my own, but can anyone help me with what to mix. I don't want to waste to much paint trying to get the colour.

Start with 1 part Weyerhouser green, and add 5 or 6 parts white. Or so etching like that.

If you can find Tamiya paint their X-15 Light Green is spot on.
