After a much-too-long hiatus (been a rough sememster!), I finally got to sit down and do some painting last week.
Here's what I've got so far, and I'd like some feedback, and advice on where to go next:
I'm already planning to add dirt and dust to the tracks and bottom (and finish the commander, and add glass details), but have no practice at overall weathering, scratches, dings, etc.
Lemme know what you think!

I think the painting is very well done. Good shading and highlighting, and the freehand camo work is spot on.
The only thing that let me down was that I was hoping to see some cool jungle conversions, like camo nets and extra fuel tanks and some overgrowth growing on the tank.

Man, that's the joy of Anime! To revel in the complete and utter wastefullness of making an unstoppable nuclear-powered combat andriod in the shape of a cute little girl, who has the ability to fall in love and wears an enormous bow in her hair. |

Hey, that's why I'm posting it here. There's still plenty of work to do!

Nice stuff. I'm thinking of getting back to my IG and doing them as Catachans, so this is a nice bit of inspiration for me.

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 |

Make sure you don't fix anything like netting and camouflage too securely. Be a shame if it couldn't be repainted to a new scheme in a couple of years or so.

verry nice, now your catchacans can take the fight off of the jungle boards and rape elsewhere

I like your colours and the camo blends well, I would like to see some foliage on it or some extra fuel tanks like the doc said
