Does anyone have a "go-to" highlight color for UK Bronze Green from Vallejo?

I wanted to paint my late war UK tanks made by the UK in something other than the olive-ish green on all of the lend-lease stuff to make them standout. That Bronze Green is darker than I imagined.

I don't like to mix paints, because I can never reproduce it correctly...so, if you have a standard color you might suggest for highlighting, I'd appreciate hearing it.

Thanks!

If you’re worried about reproducing the color, you can buy more of that paint and mix it on a plate or whatever until you get the color you like, then brush as much as will fit back into the container. Or just buy a small Tupperware of some type to keep the paint in.

But I hope to find something other than Russian Uniform as the highlight...
