Did you paint over the clear windows? You could have masked them and then once the full body paint was dry. You could have used tamiya green clear to color the small windows.
(but) your project came out really well.

Looks like it came out nicely. I think the windows look a little off too though. You should still be able to see light through them. Other than that, it looks really good.

The stenciled unit markings are awesome, especially on the rear. I like your chipping too, just enough, I tend to go too far when it comes to that. Nice work!

Looks great, the weathering is spot on, as if it's seen its fair share of combat and abuse. I like the different shades of parts, the mirrors and headlight assembly add to the wear and tear.
On correction though, the wiper blades are on the wrong sides, and should be flipped over so they are flush with the lower edge of the glass.
