Don't take this the wrong way as it's a great paint job for an Imperial Guard vehicle, but it just doesn't look right for Space Marines. Also, you might want to paint the vision slits on the front - they look a little out of place being painted the same camo colors as the rest of the tank. A nice black wash wouldn't be bad either to bring out some of the details - it feels like it needs more shadows.

Man, I wish there was a real Black Library where I could get a Black Library Card and take out Black Library Books without having to buy them. Of course, late fees would be your soul. But it would be worth it. - InquisitorMack

No offense taken at all. I appreciate all comments. This is my first vehicle that I've ever painted and only the 12th model in total....

As for why I chose a camo-scheme for a marine army, it's simple: I just got sick and tired of seeing solid coloured blocks on the battlefield.

There is a brown wash on the entire tank to make it look muddy as well as some boltgun metal highlights to give it a worn look.

My inspiration for the entire pattern was a 1970's Soviet pattern that was used on T-72s. As such, there's a nice red star on the other right rhino's door.

Once again, I'm looking for opinions, I'm not the type to get insulted.
