rivetcounter - according to the information I can find, Tiger 250251 was numbered A02 and was part of the 9th company, III Abteilung, Panzer-Grenadier Division Großdeutschland which fought in Russia on the eastern front.
Thank you for the advice on the hatch interiors. That confirms what previous posters have said. I will certainly paint them the same as the base color of the tank, when I find out what that is supposed to be.
Your last line hints at my second question, if my Tiger is supposed to be painted dunkelgelb. I know there are more possibilities when it comes to dunkelgelb color than I can even imagine. Nevertheless, getting information from those who have been there might help guide me to a color that is acceptable and that I like.
But, I am getting ahead of myself. I am looking forward to your answer as to what color my Tiger should be painted.
Thanks for the help,
Steve
