Hi alexander,hows it going mate? As john said any colour really as long as its not too bright. As a basic starter try a khaki colour( say, tamiya xf 49 or 51) lightened with a bit of light grey (xf 19) and then mucky it up as much as you think necessary, with washes / pigments etc, cheers tony
 
Hi Alexander, I agree with Tony, a Khaki or a Khaki Drab is a nice base colour, then highlighted with something like a vallejo Afrika Korps Highlights II. That worked well for me when I built a Famo, displayed in Trucks on the forum!

Have a play with a bit of old model from the spares box before you commit to a final colour format
