Could someone tell me what this color is and what could be a possible substitute?

I'm working on some interior items for my Emil and it calls for this color and I'm clueless.

Need help please! Thanks!

Hey Jeff ,, Been looking at your problem and dude totally agree,,what a pain .. seems that Tamyia Dark Yellow (XF60) is pretty close if your not to worried about being a rivet counter .
There is also Humbrol No 84 Mid Stone .. that also might do the job .

Heres hoping .

Vallejo (or Vallejo Air) has a Middlestone also. My Flak Drasine was painted in this color:



It's an "off" German Dark Yellow. Looks pretty good though.

I found some walkaround photos of German Armor that had that particular item in question and identified the color needed.

It's all a matter of what looks good in the end and I thank all replies!
