Pretty good job. Decent job on the weathering and finish. A couple pointers though. First, the commanders' hatch inside color should be the same OD as the rest of the vehicle. It looks pale green or dirty white in your pics. Next is the lights. On the front, they should be the outside lights on both sides clear and the inside lights either gloss black or dark red. The two inner lights are for IR Infra-Red) driving with night observation goggles. On the rear, only the upper left oval should be red, the other three positions (lower one on the left and both upper and lower on the right) should be black slits. They are part of the night driving blackout light system. It should look like below.

It looks pretty good. A few minor corrections and it will look great. Keep up the good work.

I noticed on the rear view of the M113 in Iraq that this vehicle is sporting the Diehl tracks as well! Is someone making a conversion set of tracks w/sprockets for this version?

The plywood breaker board on the front is called a "trim vane". I noticed on the rear view of the M113 in Iraq that this vehicle is sporting the Diehl tracks as well! Is someone making a conversion set of tracks w/sprockets for this version?
