New paint looks great!
If you are going for an arctic look I'd go easy on the weathering. Unless its spring and the permafrost is melting.

Good point.  I do want some mud splatter, but not a ton- more the traveling cross-country wear-n-tear look.

That looks really good. The turret certainly looks the part. That is also a great looking arctic pattern you have there.

Awesome camo! I'm glad you stuck with it. Are you going to use the kit tires?

That's the plan for now. I may look at the AM options for some with chains?

Tire chains would look good. Get out the backing soda for the snowy diorama!

That paint-job is truly remarkable! 8)

Great looking build (even though I prefer 8x8's). :)

Though one could add weathering.  I like it best left this way.  Show off excellent build.  Camo is effective at messing with quick ID of what you are looking at. :)

Very nice build, and gives me lots of inspiration for my 1/72nd scale builds.
