                        ModelMaster, Tamiya and Humbrol all have desert sand colors in their lineups. I think
                        Polly Scale also has a desert sand color in their lineup.

                        Tamiya Dark Yellow for Base Coat

                        Tamiya Buff for a light "simulated" dust coat


                        or you may use Tamiya Desert Yellow as base coat (but is a bit yellowish than dark yellow)

                        Model Master acryl and their enamel line have a "US army/marine gulf sand". It's not quite right, but it's pretty close. As goofey as it may sound I don't think it's quite pink enough or something.
