I think the samples 1-3 are the closest. 4-6 are too dark. What type of wash do you use? From my experience I would recommend oil based artists paints thinned with white spirit. I would try to use some browns with yellows and a bit of grey. To get the right shade is a try and error process I think. There is also another technique to get ineresting looking deck. Take few sheets of veneer and stain in slightly different shades of browns, yellows and greys (each sheet of different colour) then cut them into strips and mix the planks. After that use this mixture to glue separate planks randomly. Very arduous but effect is really rewarding.
