looks good although alittle fuzzy! i suggestion would be:make the tank tred flat on the snow. it looks like it just peeled up not a big deal though (im not an armour guy) but the over all look is exellent!

id glue donw the tracks, they wouldnt bend upwards like that, were the tigers really salmon colored in the bulge?? silly nazis. and i would make inpressions behind the tank that would like it went somewhere and didnt drop from the air.. very nice, minor changes, the bunker looks awesome!!-Dj

make the snow more uneven and objects look like they're sunken into it somewhat. add tracks from the soldiers and the machinery and a small crater type impact where the explosion was that broke the tread.
