The green is much lighter and the brown is close but a bit different.

It shouldn't be too hard to mix up the shades from the Tamiya NATO Green and Brown

Check out the colours on this tank from Prime Portal......

Nato green is a olive green
Nato brown is red brown

french green is grass green (80 humbrol and XF5+ sand or flesh for tamiya's paint)
french brown is a earth brown (more difficult , i used various mix)
