- Good work on an unusual subject. Depth of finish achieved is quite nice. A little bit more drybrushing with a lighter tone would be helpful to accentuate the raised details. Give a try to making an undercut at the wheel to track interface on these one piece resin affairs. It will allow you to load a dark wash in to give more of an impression of being a multi-part assembly. Nice photography. Wayne

- A solid build and good paint finish. A darker wash around the wheel and track detail would help hide the fact that the running gear is moulded as solid pieces. The single colour finish has been nicely broken up, a little more dust on the horizontal surfaces would further accentuate this.

- Interesting piece of work! Paintwork is well done -it represents vehicle that seen some action, so I suggest that little bit more chips and scratches would help to create more worn effect.Place where tacks meets left sprocket has much more mud than other part of the tracks.
