This thread should probably be in member's club room.
Anyway, my answer is that render's (and it's not a render actually, just a screenshot) quality isn't enough to figure out if model is worthy or not. But right now, i think i can see some artifacts.
Anyway, here's my version:

That was just an early model of it. I have completed it. Yes it is a render it was taken in Maya without IPR. Anyway I have been looking at you're model and its the PROTOTYPE and not the actual production version. lots of changes since prototype version.

Привет, сейчас нет, но был в ИАС ВВС.

Could you please give me some pictures of actual version? I haven't seen anything since that plastic model on exhibition. Since i am the one who tries to keep stuff inside this project up to date, i am the first one interested in updating the model.

There were some really recent pics displaying the PLZ-05 during the 80th Anniversary celebration. Tried to upload but for some reason it wont. They have the pics in CDF.

yes thats correct that is the production version. The vehicles displayed there are the production versions. As of the current moment i posses about 64 or so pictures of the PLZ05 and all of them were used to create my final model.

Here is how my PLZ04 is progressed to :

thats the PRODUCTION version. There are many details missing in prototype version as there is in production. Lets take for example the prototype version only shows 2 boxes on top of turret while production has 4 and additional supports under it. The back of the turret has fire extuingishers , ladders and 2 boxes while proto has 3 big boxes at the back not to mention lack of fire extuingshers etc...

Nah, these are minor differences, could be fixed in minutes.
Your model has some major geometry flaws - wrong turret shape, bad tube and engine compartment proportions, driver's hatch isn't in place (it should be one the left), gun's mask should be wider, sight on the right flank is too large. Overall, did you use some reference, or just your impression?

One more thing - could you please provide a photo that shows 4 boxes on the top of the turret? I wasn't able to find one among those PLZ05/04 pictures.

mainly I used the PLZ89 chassis and the 2S19MSTA-S turret which I thought I could heavily modify to resemble the PLZ04 turret but it seems I gotta make it from scratch. Btw thanks for the help :) been modelling for over 5 years and I still screw up :p

Btw picture u were looking for:
