Tan walkways on a Navy aircraft are most unusual. I would not know what color to suggest. Black, Dark Gull Gray, or even Deck Gray/Gunship Gray are the usual suspects for USN/USMC aircraft walkways.
Looks like Dark Gull Gray in this photo

Those red warning intake triangles is why mine is on the shelf of doom. I think I'll do the same as you and paint them.

It fought you a little bit, but you showed it who’s the boss. That turned out looking great John! Humbrol Concrete eh? I have read of that discontinued color, but don’t recall ever seeing it before.

It worked for this but I've never seen bare concrete that color. Must be an English thing.

Well if I can't figure it out, I might just do that.
