I had to look twice to realize what I was seeing. NIce job.
Couple of pointers, the roof segment on the ground does not match the structure of the roof on the building. Next time I would vary the corner of the sandbag wall. It looks a bit too square. I'd like to see a bit more dark color in the tank tracks.

The house came with two parts of a sandbag wall, with fitting angles, so I couldn't change the corner because I had to glue it that way. Actually, it's kind of a stupid set, without the base it sucks.

The US MPC release included a vacuformed base. In order to add some realism to the sand bag wall, I would lightly coat some of the upper edges of the individual sand bags with Elmer's white glue and sprinkle some fine sand on it. Real sand bags have a tendency to leak sand through the weave of the burlap.
