I looked for flaws and the one suggestion I could make is that the decal is too white and uniform - your best bet is to cut masks and paint the decal so you can chip it. Even then I can see you went out of your way to cover it with streaking. Another thing you can do is run a graphite stick on the edges of the tracks where they would scrape against the ground and each to get a worn metallic look. I would be proud to have a model like this at all let alone as my third model. I would say that your next step is learning to incorporate additional materials like dirt and mud to enhance the realism and to learn to do scenic bases and figures to really tell a story!

thanks everybody. Zach I actually did graphite the track edges but obviously it didn't show. I appreciate the input. Definitely agree on the decal. And yes the plug wires are a bit bright for a WW1 tank but I'm getting there.
