Now that would be one fun jeep to drive. :) Awesome work! As for thumbnails, it seems to work fine for me as jpg 200x200 med. A good method for cramming more detail down into a tiny thumbnail is to start with the image at 2x what you need, and use unsharp mask and scale down.

Super cool modeling... this is an inspiration to concentrate my time in modeler. As for thumbnail, I use PS to crop something proportional to 200 px, load the file into Painter and convert to jpg -- the file comes in fairly good quality and under 15kb limit.

Excellent modelling. Crop your thumbnail to a "teaser" small area instead of trying to get the whole image reduced. Also, this particular one has a very limited color pallette... doesn't playing with that in compression help quite a bit?
