This is a M41A3 Walker Bulldog by Skybow in 1/35th scale. It was a lovely model to build with great detail on it. I built it OOB and only added the tarpaulin and weathering.
This one is in the markings of the U.S. Army in 1970. But the kit comes with decals for the Taiwan Army in 1990, Taiwan Marine Corps in 1996 and two sets for the South Vietnamese Army ARVN in 1968.

Nice job, I really like the rusting on the muffler shields. Just out of curiosity, is the tank really that yellow, or is it the lighting?

It's a combination of the weathering, a sandy mud colour and the lighting.
