1. Is the black or the blue weapon shielding the best?
2. Any ideas on how to make the tank blue/black pattern better (I was thinking putting blue on the front ramp and the top ramp).

Looks to me like you have a good color contrast ratio. Too much more blue and it will look washed out. But paint it to what you like.

So no preference to black or blue gun shielding, personally I prefer the blue, but was wanting a second oppinion.

Blue but I'd put some form of marking on there to break it up (maybe black lines or skulls for kill markings?)

Sorry, I only looked closely at the first pic. I think the first has a good amount of each color. I think the second has a little too much blue (but then I am partial to black). I like the shielding black. Then possibly the markings like noted above.

blue, but the las-cannon grips on the barrell that are blue, should be black.

To glimpse the future, you must look to the past and understand it. Names may change, but human behavior repeats itself. Prophetic insight is nothing more than profound hindsight.

It doesn't matter how bloody far the apple falls from the tree. If the apple fell off of a Granny Smith, that apple is going to grow into a Granny bloody Smith. The only difference is whether that apple grows in the shade of the tree it fell from.
