I'd always thought the HS combat vehicles were a weathered kahki color
to match the slammers uniforms. There was a nice picture of one
of the GZG panzers in pratical war gamer two years ago. It had a 
green and brown cammo paint job IIRC.

For iridium I'd use a gun-metal type color. The UK paint manufacturer
Humbrol did/does a metallic range that you can polish called
'metal-cote'
, they do a very good gun-metal and steel. Probably not available in the
US?
Tamiya also do a gun-metal.
