A tip of the hat to AI for even completing that Start kit. That is a challenging build.

WOW, what strange looking little tanks! 

As models go though, they look nicely done, but the painting on the road wheels could be neater for sure.

I give 'em an 8 out of 10! Big Smile [:D]

I agree on the roadwheels.  Also, the track rust looks really red, instead of a rusty orange/brown IMO.  One thing I've noticed, is all of your modelers' (AI, Tuk, etc.. You have four builders, don't you?) builds have the same weathering look/style.  Not a bad thing, since personally I find it visually pleasing if not always accurate.  It's just kind of funny how four or five people produce models that have the exact same look.  Hope that makes some sense.

The first one looks pretty good.The second has the ubiquitous silvered decals and the road wheels look like they're floating above the tracks.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

They both look like really good builds and I like the look of the weathering. 

 My only comment (and someone please correct me if I'm wrong) would be on the first photo of the T-40, the sag in the tracks appears to be off-center a bit.  The high point in the track sag does not appear to be inline with the return roller.  This is especially noticeable on the return roller furthest aft of the tank. 

Things could be worse. Suppose your errors were counted and published every day, like those of a baseball player. Life will always throw you curves, just keep fouling them off... the right pitch will come, but when it does, be prepared to run the bases.
