I saw video on Youtube of SS autumn camo being painted on a 1/35 figure; creator of video referred to one color as "Revell flat orange brown;" searched internet; can't seem to find it on color charts, etc.

any ideas for substitutes or similar colors? thanks

The color he was probably referring to is Revell Aqua-Color 36188 Ochre Brown RAL 1011, not Orange Brown.

Again, due to various dye batches, fading, yatta-yatta-yatta, oranges, and even gray-violet colors occur in SS camo smocks, and uniforms.

Are you intending to use acrylics or enamels? I have a very good vallejo colour chart at home with all the SS camo colours,will take a look for you.
