RE: Tiger wallpaper
Hey that's a fantastically-accurate pic above, I should know because I coloured it myself in the standard German 'Hinterhalt-Tarnung' pattern of dunkelgelb-yellow/rotbrun-brown/olivgrun-green, I used to build Tamiya model AFV's and know a little bit about camo colours and shades, but don't take my word, just go check out other peoples colour pics around the net and you'll see German colours are common knowledge, for example this guys pic is same as mine-

And read up on the subject here if you like-

Excerpt - On 1943-02-18, it was ordered that all vehicles were to be painted in a base coat Dunkelgelb nach Muster (except for small equipment pieces, which were to retain the former colours). Over this, a camouflage pattern of Olivgrün (an RLM colour), Rotbraun RAL 8017 and Dunkelgelb nach Muster consisting of stripes was to be applied by the maintenance sections, according to the terrain. For this purpose, the paint was delivered as a paste, which could then be thinned with most liquids, and applied. Dunkelgelb nach Muster was later re-named Dunkelgelb RAL 7028, and Olivgrün was re-named Olivgrün RAL 6003.
