I used Tamiya Desert Yellow for my 131 build. http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 29&t=14922

My first time using Tamiya paints to a large extent and they worked great.

I made a DAK Panzer III earlier this year and i mixed 2 colors from the Aqueous range for it
I doubt it is a exact match but it is close

The mix is mentionned in this build thread
But it is hard to say whatbis the right color
The vehicles where in full sunlight all day so they would fade very fast
Besides that you have different colors depending on the time they where used
