ok then: comments

1. the body looks more spraypainted then weathered, why would a paint darken rather then lighten in effected areas?

2. the allied logo is the cleanest part of the entire vehicle, you would think being on that extremely battered part of the body that it would have some damage to it? or is it newly applied?

3. the gun looks like a bunch of poorly crafted metal plates. could detail that considering it is a gun, and is most likely not some metal plates riveted together.

4. wheel hubs lack definition, the body has a body kit on it? cause you would think that under the wheel hubs it would either a: on a low poly vehicle such as this be shocks and struts, or b: be blackened by mud and brake soot.

5. put some dings & dents on the edge of the door frame, no vehicle in the field survives with that much damage to the paint and keeping a nice clean door edge.

6. gas can needs more shadowing so not to look like a piece of block, and tan? IMO poor color designation, black or dark brown would have been a much more suitable gas can for a military vehicle.

7. headlights are too clean and "flat looking", you could add some shadowing from the frame to the glass to make it look like the actual frame is over the glass, rather then merging with it. also, look at the front glass of most vehicles, it has a ribbed texture to it that is etched into the inside of the "plastic" glass lenses.

8. same with parking lights/turn signals.

9. Rollbar lacks looking like a rollbar, it looks like poorly painted bent metal, could Jeep have actually went this cheap on there rollbars? doubtful, perhaps putting weld marks where the supports meet the main bar, as well as eliminating that U shaped even wear on the bar.

10. hood lacks usability. nothing holding it down, and nothing showing that it opens, add some sort of latches to the back or something.

11. body is solid, break it up into sections properly, there are front fenders, back fenders, doors, bottom trim, etc... you lack the detail on this, and it looks like a solid body with doors cut out.

12. entire vehicle lacks screws, rivets, stitching, etc... glue doesn't hold a jeep together, so to accurately depict one, you should add some of these.

13. side mirrors don't blend well into the side mirror supports, looks like 2 pieces of metal floating with a metal mirror next to it.

14. odd view, but i can't seem to see any windshield wipers. with some creative alpha layers, you could easily add that detail to the windshield.

15. tailgate lacks latch, but then again, i can't see it properly, so it might not need to be there due to the gas can.

those are just some first look things, don't flame me for giving you what you asked.
