I have a base color but all the pics I can find have a multi-colored looking barrel shroud. Any good pictures or details?

I have part of a barrel thermal shroud in the garage so can photograph that if it would help. It weathered to a greyish green.

I used Vallejo Air 71.044 light grey green. It looks very similiar to how I remember the barrel thermal sleeves looking when I served on Chieftain. Then lightened it slightly for the reinforcement/heatshield panel under the barrel. Looks the part. The clamp pads were a brown almost khaki colour.
