Of course the match depends on how adept you are, but a little blue and a little green in the proper proportions will likely yield just about what you need.

Testor's is a good quality paint by the way, and it flows out to a nice smooth finish with just a brush, provided it is applied at the recommended temperature and viscosity.
I go to art school so with a little bit of work and maybe bribing i think i can do it or find somebody who can mix/apply it right.
