It's a great looking gun.
My only remarks I can think of are: a) for this amount of rust it is very clean. b) issue with rounds - I've described it in my previous post (oh and the copper projectiles were usually not painted); c) having a lot of rust marks all around the vehicle you've left exhaust pipes, coolers and mufflers as clean as new - they'd be attacked by rust in a first place due to the heat that strenghtens rusting process.
These are only thing I've spotted that I'd change. I really love the look of this monster in Panzergrau - looks great!

What paint did you use?

Thanks for the comment Andrzej,

You are right about the exaust pipes and mufflers, have to weather them properly.
Also I have to paint the ammunition, used vallejo paint.
It works just fine compared to tamiya paint.
Furthermore the crane has a double wire, as you mentioned before.
Again, thanks for the comment, maybe I have time to adjust this in this weekend...
