For an Academy 1/35 kit.

Is it panzer grey?

Can I use Humbrol Matt 67 ?

Depends on the date you're trying to depict. Could be OK in pz grey for 42. Might be for early 43, but winter 42/43 probably have some sort of white over the grey. From about Feb 43 new build were dark yellow base colour. Not sure how long it took them to change existing grey ones over to new colour. As for the paint to use, opinions vary a lot. Some say pz grey was very dark, others go lighter. Sorry, not familiar with the Humbrol range (can't get them around here at the moment).

Yes, many paint charts match Humbrol 67 to RAL 7021. I think those first few tanks were a little darker though, something like RLM 66. Ohh wait, Do you mean the Initial Production Tiger's? The first 9 sent to the 502nd in 1942? Then the above applies. All the tanks after that were production models with RAL 7028.
