I know their jerry cans are brown- umber type color and in the Afrika Korps they were variations of tan. My best guess is either green or brown like the tamiya set. Sorry I can't help you anymore

If I'm not too far off the German 200 litre drums are either in German grey for the European and Eastern front and sandy brown (Tamiya's) for the desert.

The jerry cans (20litres) come in a similar scheme with an additional white cross if they are used to keep water only. Hope that helps.
