It looks great! Some weathering, especially to blend the decals would do good, but you were going to do that already

Looks good!
I like the camo, the dry mud, and the light pinwash you have applied.

You asked for suggestions:
- the upper side of the mudguards needs a wash or drybrushing to make the pattern visible
- needs scratches on the edges, around camo net hooks, etc.
- needs random splotches of mud and some dusty areas on the front and the sides

Very nice!

How did the kit go together?

I do notice you have not painted the jack block, is that intentional?

cheers

Mike,
Kit went together OK.No serious problems that I can recall.
Painting - jack, barrel etc- is not finished yet.
An idea is to paint it black and drydrush it with Humbrol steel.

It's not my blog, but I can answer the question, too
The kit is outstanding. Some of the detail would shame a 1/35 scale model easily. (Of course that makes handling the insanely small parts difficult.)

Hello Petros,
A fine camo, good assembling, so a well done job. Good weathering with pigments too. G.

Petros,

Really nice job! Looks like a 1/35 scale build. Like the camo, very convincing.
