Does anyone know what colour the Ottomans painted vehicles in military service during (or just after) WWI?

Thanks

I've got a couple of Model Ts that I'm painting up in Dunkelgelb (+ dirt). It seemed appropriate as it is a nice military/desert(esque)/Germanic colour which is thematically appropriate to my mind, if not necessarily historically correct.

Ottoman Military museum in Istanbul has a 1913 Model T "official car of Mahmut Sevket Pasha, minister of War" that he was assassinated in that is Olive Green

Thanks, plenty to mull over there.

Is the olive green colour the same one they use for their artillery?
