Excluding the obvious such as black, white, brown, chestnut (and all horsey colours), gold, silver, brass, skin (all tones).
What would the Vallejo using Napoleonic officianados recommend for uniform colours (I already have Prussian Blue, Andrea Blue, 926, 947, Bright Green & Military Green.) Any tips will be greatlt received |

That would greatly depend on which nation(s) you intend to paint? |

It also depends on scale. In 6mm I use a pretty bright blue for the French as anything "realistic" just looks black. Then go darker for 15 and darker yet for 25/28… |
