Colour for italians other than the desert

[Idguardnomore2]

As the title  says , I'm looking for a colour  that's for Russia  preferable  Vallejo. Any help would  be appreciated.

A friend, many years ago, painted his 15mm Italians (for use in Russia)
an Olive Drab & dry brushed them with a 'dust' colour, which in 15mm
dealt with all the 'detail' such as webbing.
Sorry, but no idea which brand/shade of paint, & he has since passed on.

With Vallejo suggestions.

Interestingly, the initial contingent may have worn an undress / work uniform that was more grey in colour during the summer of 1941.

Thanks for the reply.

If you google Italian WW2 uniforms and look at images you should find some which have a Ukraine logo which I think may represent Eastern Front re-enactors.

Osprey men of war series did Italian uniform Europe 1940/45. Not sure if it’s still available.

The italian grigioverde uniform had a distinguishable blueish tint that finds no equivalent in any paint range, to my knowledge: the suggested Olive Grey is clearly too green to be accurate, IMHO. The only acceptable solution I found is adding to VMC German Fieldgrey a bit of VMC Luftwaffe Field Blue or a similar bluegrey tone

Sadly, most of the Ospreys look to be out-of-print. Amazon list volume 3 but even their own website seemingly has none available.
