The tracks look great. The mud on the wheels looks real!
Isn't it fun doing that last coat of graphite / pencil / silver paint on the track cleats and raised areas and watching the detail come out?
I normally don't like cloud camouflagues, but the last shot of the side looks nice.
Maybe if you could get a few photos when it is brighter, I could see the whole effect of the cloud pattern?

Looks great. I think you have nailed the soft edges to the camo very well.... something that is rarely pulled off in my humble opinion.
The weathering looks spot on. Just enough to convey a sense of this beast seeing some action. I particularly like the way you handled the fading and scratching of the numbers.
Whilst I agree with Rouse713 that it woukd be nice to see some shots with more light, I have to admit I rather like the way you have photographed this. Dark and brooding!
