I would use some washes to darken the paint and give it some depth. Also, why are you doing the bed and cab in different colors. They sould most likely be the same color.

The bed has not yet been painted just test fitting it. Just wanted to get a few comments on the paint before I proceed any further.

I did some searches on google and noticed that the nva truck color looks like the '60 Russian green. Try darkening the paint with some washes and filters.
