You've got a good start, pay a little more attention to the seams on your fuel tanks; that'll improve it some, but it's a good effort.

that turned out nice is that just camera shine on the wheel hubs on the left side and i wheel on the right side? the seams on the fuel tanks are always annoying to clean up. i have been modeling more than a few years and i still have trouble with them. track sag looks good and not overdone. you will see a lot of armor with rusty tracks. seems to be a current trend. if the vehicle is functioning the tracks WILL NOT be rusty and the high points will be shiny. the spare tracks on the side could be dependant on how long they gave been on.

looking forward to the next one.

First of all, let me tell you how refreshing and wonderful it is to hear of a 12-year old still building models! Most 12-year olds I know have permanently-bowed necks from looking down at their stupid cell phones 14 hours a day, and are about as productive at anything even resembling a "hobby" as .... well, anyway...great to see that you have found modeling, and that you're here interacting with people who share the same love!

It looks like you also have a future in it! It looks great--I can't believe you didnt have an airbrush when you did this! That's some impressive work! Keep up the good work, and post your next project soon!

Thats a great looking model, Reaper. I can tell you had fun doing it because it has a real "go for it" quality. That's inspiring.

When you photograph, make sure that you get the whole barrel in at least one side shot.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
