If you go to a professional paint factors, they should be able to make
any given color in any finish and paint type you want.
Nato Green is a supposedly standard colour, which seems to be slightly
different from every supplier (see some of the different colors of
vehicles on Nato exercises, supposedly all in the same colour). It is
quite unlike Deep Bronze Green, especially some of the batches i've
had, in which the colors vary significantly. I recently had two tins
of German Army surplus Nato Green, which was considerably lighter than
nato green should ever be. I ended up adding to the paint to darken
the color to get it nearer.
