Hi Mark

You are free to paint your Mid Tiger in any way you want but if you want it somehow accurate don’t paint it grey.

The order to change color from grey to Dunkelgelbe came in April 1943 and the Mid Tiger production started in July that year.
So it is safe to say no Tiger produced (Mid or Late) after April 1943 had any other base color then Dunkelgelbe RAL 7028.

Cheers
Kent
