Here's my completed (minus figure) Tamiya 105mm M4A3. I used an Eduard PE detail set, Tasca VVSS, and some parts I thought looked a little better from a ruined DML kit. I added the cast textureing by coating with Ambroid Pro-Weld and stippling with a stiff brush. The welds were added by glueing styrene rod and marking with a wood burning tool. This is one of the first of my models that has made it to the end. Hope to put it in a dio based in Italy. Please let me know what you think and what I could do to improve the next. Thanks.

As much as I hate to hide some great detail work, I think you should put a canvas tarp over your rear stowage. You can make one out of doped tissue or some carefully manipulated air clay.
