I will fix the tracks and the vision blocks. Thanks for the comments

It's actually the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment also know as The Black Horse Regiment.

It's a good build, I'd add some bolt detail to the spare road wheels so it looks like something is holding it to the grunt rail besides magic!

Also the vision blocks in the cupola riser and on the cupola itself are still painted over; I'd touch up those glass areas with some gloss black or dark blue.

There's a lot more good than bad in your effort. The tracks are on backward; a little fine tuning and there'd be nothing to be upset about.

Here is my 1/35 M-48A3 from Tamiya. Straight from the box. Dot filtering and craft acrylics for the weathering. I added copper wire and drops of super glue to replicate the microphones on the commander and the driver. Nomally I build aircraft, so I am out of my comfort zone. I have to add more goodies to it but, I will get to that a little later. It is not up to the standard of people like the Doog but I can live with it.

 

 

According to the directions the marking are for the II Armoured Combat Regiment
