Isn't "raw" zimmerit dark yellow as it was colored with ochre? So it should be almost the same color as Dunklegelb. But, no real biggie as the zimmerit can be airbrushed the appropriate color before applying.

The mix includes an ochre color, but there are some who say that this was dropped over time, thus comes the light grey, white belief. Been discussed at length, here are some threads:
