I have checked paint4models and come up with nothing. The instructions call for Mr. Color Sandy Brown #19. According to the site there is no Mr. Color Sandy Brown #19. Also, the instructions call for Khaki Green Mr. Hobby #54 GSI Creos Aqueous #80. What are my alternatives? I'm building an M3 Grant, in North Africa.

According to my references those numbers are good.
Humbrol 159 Kahki Drab is suppose to be a match for the Khaki green as is Tamiya XF-51
Here's a color chart

looks like Dark yellow to me
Cross references to Mr. Color seems to be lacking.
