Fire away guys, I need constructive criticism. No camo here since I lack the skill, feasible that this tank could have been just grey.From what I gather these units were not front line tanks however they served well against partisan activity. No hull #, I can not find anything to work. My intention was to put hull # on back below the cross. Thanks for looking

To me the grey looks a bit monotone,the model could benefit from applying some filters and washes to brake up the monotone look.maybe highlight some edges with a lighter grey dry brush and add some paint chips and pigments.
Just a suggestion.

Matt model paint is usually far to matt and gives a very dull and monotone surface.
One way around this is to cover it with a thin coat of satin clear, another way is to "polish" the kit gently with your fingers.

The wood grain on the rocket crates is perfect!

yea,pretty far off the mark should have gone all the way with the weathering, or none at all looks rather monotonous.Only one of my models was full on weathering as you can see with the link I provided.guess I am indecisive about what I want.Weathering is more interesting instead of building a factory fresh tank. As it is, the tank has a coat of MIG faded panzer grey pigment brushed on dry with some track brown on the tracks.I guess the rocket crates were of pine stud construction?or sometimes metal. thanks for the input https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/202751#1698611
