Hi All
I'm trying to track down a piant equivalent for the French armour colour vert d'eau. Can anyone help?

Many thanks

Looks similar to some faded shades of Lite Russian Mlitary Green:

Thanks for that - French forums seem to indicate that Humbrol 120 is more of a match for the French shade so that is what I may well go with.
