Tamiya 1:48 Avro Lancaster Paint Question

I'm currently working on the 1:48 Tamiya Lanc MkI/III. I was wondering if anyone knows what paint should be used for the brown colour in the camo pattern on top. I tried the colour recomended in the instructions but don't like the look of it. (It would be best if the paint was made by Model Master as that is pretty much my all local hobby shop stocks, everything else has to be ordered.)

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

The colours are known as (RAF) Dark Green and Dark Earth. I can give you the Humbrol numbers, which you can cross reference with the reference chart(s) posted elsewhere in the Modelling section.
Dark Green, Humbrol (enamel) Number 30.
Dark Earth, Humbrol (enamel) Number 29.
