Use Elysian Green as your main layer colour and build it up with thin, controlled coats. It has medium coverage. Thin it moderately. Good companion colours include Castellan Green, Agrax Earthshade, Ogryn Camo and Athonian Camoshade.
Do not force the basecoat into an NMM-style finish. It behaves much better in a standard layered workflow.
