Awesome build, Milo! It really does look little like a model and more real vehicle. Kudos. It's what we all strive for.
But, I have to echo the question about the water bottles on the antenna. What's up with that?
Total thumbs up,

Amazing model, well done Milo!
As for the water bottles... IIRC, they put some kind of signal lights inside the bottles but I don't remember the details.

It is glowsticks (a.k.a. chemlights) that are placed inside the bottles on the antenni. They are for vehicle ID at night. Either IR or visible colors can be used.

IIRC the bottles hold chemlights/glowsticks to assist with night driving and vehicle recognition. Absolutely stunning model BTW!

Hey Milo... Simply outstanding, great job!!
Can you describe how you do your groundwork. I've tried so many ways to get mine to look like that but I can't figure it out. How do you keep everything from coming off? I imagine it's super easy. Thanks man!!

I prepare small blog about groundwork for vehicles.
This is very easy. My friend marionette producer advise me how i do easy ground for vehicles.
He have many sawdust if cut wood. I this mixed with white glue and apply to wood base.
I add stones, grass and vegetation .
After 10-15 hour I can make of trace and in possible add vehicle to base.
If all dry (two day) I paint groundwork.

Milo,
Very nice work! I've just started on the same model, and so I have taken the liberty of saving the photos of your project as references.
