Looks good Rat. Should put an antenna in that hole/circle behind the loader's hatch. That's for the infantry radio with a smaller rubber ducky style antenna base and short (4 ft) antenna. . On the stowage, make sure to make some security for those ammo boxes.
Since you are keeping the skirts, cables, "steel" rods, etc....otherwise, they'd be laying in the dirt a hundred yards down the road. What's supposed to be that nicely made crate? Looks very nice, but the only thing that comes in crates like that are 2 rounds of 90mm ammo in black paper tubes, and they would never be carried open on the deck. Better would be grenade boxes or C or K rats boxes. The TC's wet weather suit is also OD....it's a rubber coated canvas which caused you to get wetter from sweat than from rain. Best to paint it with a greener shade of OD to stand out from the fatigues. Tank and weathering is lookin' good.
