tamiya nato black is ok. its not quite black, more a dark green, i’ve used it on inner frames before. looks good and works with a bit of dry brushing after as well.

I use the Krylon Camouflage Ultra Flat Olive color, although it looks more of a dark gray. If you want to private message me your email address Johann I got a couple pictures I can send you. Now if you are looking for something for like an air brush. I use Mr. Color. There are 3 grays in particular depending on the color of the original runner. Phantom Gray, grey (24), and extra dark grey. Hope that helps

I’d recommend custom mixing your paint if you really want something so specific. Just get some white and black paint and mix till you get the shade you want. This way it will actually be grey and not a dark blue or green.

also I’d like to point out that the frame color that Bandai uses on almost all their kits is 90% neutral grey + 10% black, and the really dark parts on most kits is actually midnight blue, but midnight blue is too dark to really show panel lines that well, infact I don’t normally bother lining it at all.

And one final thing, you can line lighter rather than darker for some rather interesting effects.

MG Blue Frame : Inverse

for example.

Burnt Iron (Tamiya) may also do what you are looking for….I love it!
Mr Colours ‘steel’ is also a nice colour
