If the paint is still fresh it is not that hard to remove it with denatured alcohol. Other wise you could just do second coats with more white and yellow mixed in, but try it on some scrap or the inside of the box top before you do the entire vehicle again. You can also drastically change the final "color" of any base layer with filters,washes, or using oil paints or pastels/pigments. If you only have the four paints to work with you are going to have an almost impossibe job to reduce the olive green to drab. The only other option if you can't remove the olive green to put down a layer of olive drab is to just give it a second coat with the olive drab
