This T34 is coming along nicely. You've got some subtle color variations evident so far on this that look very well done.

You might consider dry brushing the high spots with your base coat paint lightened a bit to make some of the details "pop".

I don't see a pic of the suspension/track area--- but some mud/dust/earth weathering applied in those areas, and around the fenders and front glacis plate, would also be something you might want to try.

Good looking vehicle--keep it up.

Construction looks very good. I'm not sure where you were going with the cloud effect, however. Might be the effect of too low a resolution picture and their being slightly out of focus.

That`s a nice looking T34 so far Nice clean built.
The clouding effect is indeed a bit too heavy but that is easy to change. Run some filters over the areas where the clouding is and they will blend together smoothly giving the tank a real natural looking color with really nice variations of the base color.
And indeed as Wewillhold already said some mud and dirt do wonders to your vehicle Also some dark colored washes along on the edges and welding seems will make this tank even more beautifull to look at As it gets more depth.

Just a few suggestions for an already good looking tank.
