Does anyone here have any good recipes for green for haqqislam models?

I'm assuming, here, that you want to emulate the greens seen in the studio paintjobs, yes? In that case, I don't have a recipe, per se (especially difficult given the range of greens present), but some general advice:

The Haqqislam color palette, ignoring the occasional glowing acid green of various high tech parts, is all about earth tones. Picking up some less vibrant greens (perhaps from Vallejo's Model Color range) wouldn't be a bad idea. If using a more vivid line, like Citadel or Game Color, I've found that mixing in a bit of the tans/browns used elsewhere helps. Not only does it dull down the greens, it results in a much more coherent scheme, overall.

Pale, almost greyish tones like Citadel's old Graveyard Earth were especially handy, as they could be used to lighten and soften both greens and browns (the colors you're after are generally pretty light, without necessarily being overly bright). Between the cloth (as little as there was) and armor on my Janissaire, I think I used almost as much Graveyard Earth as I did my green midtone, in the end.

Angel Giraldez, the studio painter does.

Here is a place where he has a listing of all the colors he used.
