Lee, nicely done. Just a couple of things though:
The stowage on the rear deck is not appropriate. It interferes with the rotation of the turret, and covers the rear hatches - the crew would not do that. Also, the MRE boxes on the front slope, along with the other gear would need to be lashed down. Generally, crews use the side stowage bins for MRE boxes. The grille on the right front is only the exhaust in part. The small area towards the front is the actual exhaust (so would be blackened) but the rest is an air intake, so would not be blackened. Finally, today's gun barrels really do not blacken from firing.

Overall, it looks very nice. These are just some details that I notice, and are easily corrected.

Welcome to Armorama, beautiful work.
I found this picture the other day on Military Photos and was a bit taken aback by the surface detail on the topsides.

This is the photo that i'll be using for my reference guide to weathering when I get a chance to build my M1128 again.

Great work though! Very nice finish indeed.
