              Not really. There are several photos of complete Tigers, but remember the camo was applied in the field so each one would be different.

                  Take a look at this: TIGERFIBEL. It's not cheap, but I bought the Pantherfibel and it's an amazing reading with lot of infos about what the tank crew should know.
                  BTW, on the Tank museum homepage you'll find the Haynes book named by Pete at a very interesting price.

                      If you want it free, scans are on this page together with lots of others of original manuals.

                      However, though it’s definitely interesting, I don’t think it holds much information useful to the modeller.
