RLM 70 Schwartzgrun is Black-Green and RLM 71 Dunkelgrun is Dark Green so I am not surprised that there is not a lot of differrence.

A lot of camoflage systems were like this though and if you look at black and white photo's of the time with a bit of use and weathering of the surfaces it isn't easy to tell the two colours apart especially with a feathered edge type of finish.

I would use the specified colours as I am sure that you will have something very close to the authentic Luftwaffe scheme.
