I tend to use Tamiya acrylics for my painting. What colour would you all recommend for the inside of an RAF Dakota on D-Day? The kit (OTB Italeri C47) says use green zinc chromate. Does Tamiya do this? If not any suggestions for mixing it?

I've made an acceptable zinc chromate using 60% yellow to 40% olive green. Tamiya don't make it as a standard colour.
