So For my command Stormlord i'v ewhippe up a standard colour scheme, but at its very early stages, something isnt looking right and i cant tell what.

Which is where you dakkaites come in ! how can i balance out this colour scheme? Should i make the engine casing red aswell or edit the colours ?

Here are two pics of the tank in question

I think it is from the orange only being up front it pulls your eyes all away from the back and if you look at the back side of the tank it just looks plain. Maybe a bit of white or more orange pulled along the side or between the tread and turret to tie in the rear of the tank?

suprisingly it isnt orange its red , when the tank is weathered it may blend in more thanks for the suggestion.

I have to agree, the orange/red, whatever, it is way too bright and in too big of an area, which makes the rest of the tank look very drab or even unfinished. You probably would have been better off with a a deeper red or using red bands as identifying stripes.
