It looks nice and neat...though I can't tell if those scratch marks on the flatter parts of the tank are accidental or on purpose. Really digging the base.

Very nice model. It´s difficult to get real depth with the colors you´ve chosen, but you´ve got a good tihng going.

If I was to offer any advice, It´d be to up the level of details.

Get more stuff on that tank, some seals, some bullet holes, baggage, whatever to break up the large flat areas a bit.

Nice use of FW bits also. Way better than the standard GW turret.

As far as commenting goes, I think that´s just the way of things... Many views, few comments is the norm more than anything.

nice model!
To my taste, it could use some weatering. You know, dirt, scratches... But still a nice model.

I like it, especially the barrels of the heavy bolters. It should have some unit markings like vehicle number, a name perhaps, some sort of devotional scripts/purity seals, cmapaigns it's taken part in etc. The ground looks good too though a tread pattern behind the tracks would look even better, at least have no stones sticking up where the rhino's been.
Only just noticed the backwards facing grenade launcher, nice touch.

Like the model, and the more realistic paint set. Looks good for a 20 year break from the modeling scene. Can't wait to see more.

It looks nice however I think it is missing some chipped armor effects. It looks sort of strange with no metal under flaked paint effects.

Love the worn off look on the climbing rings on the door! I can actually imagine the lime grean space marine that put it there trying to climb up on the roof and service the turret.

Did you actually look at the new pics, or are you just posting to post?
