Straight from the Tan's Modelling Waffen-SS Figures (did not try myself yet). The codes are Vallejo, the mixing ratio (if applicable) follows after the color combination:
Dot/Pea Pattern
Base = 873 + 921 + 822 (5:1:1)
Medium Green = 890
Light Green = 845 + 833 + 975 (3:5:1)
Dark Green = 975 + 950 (2:1)
Sand/Pink Spots = 845 + 835 + 921 (3:4:1)
Oak-Leaf Pattern (Spring variant)
Base = 825 + 984 (3:1)
Medium Green A = 890 + 984 (4:1)
Medium Green B = 975
Dark Green = 975 + 950 (2:1)
Light Green = 845 + 833 + 975 + 921 (2:5:1:2)
