a good book for reference is Tiger I on the western front about £20 you will probably want the eastern front volume too both by Jean Restyan,there are more expensive books £70-80,but these are a good buy and have plenty of good photos colour illustrations and cover every unit that used Tiger I and give brief histories and zones of operation kills and losses,your bound to get some inspiration from these books,and may just find that unusual beast that most modellers have'nt covered,some 501 were painted overall brown and some greygreen,RAL paint numbers are given in said books,happy hunting,the research is the aspect I enjoy most,
