Good Evening all

I am going to be building Tamiya's 1/35 Tiger mid production tank. I would like to make a diorama out of it and add figures.

What year did it enter combat and in which theatres? I would like to know so I can buy some correct figures and try and paint it in a real paint scheme.

Any help would be great, thanks for looking....

Normandy or the Eastern Front would be good choices.

The kit represents a Tiger built from December 1943 to February 1944.

These were issued to s.Pz.Abt. 502, 507, 508, 503, 506, 509, and s.SS.Pz.Abt. 101.

Theaters therefore ranged from Italy to Estonia.
