I'm loving this. Great conversion, particularly after lowering the gun platform. Just one suggestion though, if I may.
It might further refine the look if you were to lower the cannon itself, bringing it more into line with the targeting display, there-by lowering the vehicle's profile a little more.
Just an idea.
I took the liberty of photoshopping the idea, i hope you don't mind.

Thanks, and no, I don't mind. Except I can't see any images. I'm getting a broken link icon. Don't know if it's just the site right now or what.
thanks!

Nicest thing she's ever said about the hobby.

Ah, there they are now. Sorry, don't know what that was about.
Yeah, I see how that improves it. Seems everytime it gets lowered, the old version looks way high! I will most likely make that change. After a break though, cuz I'm sick of looking at it now, lol.
thanks everyone.

I know the feeling, I get that way myself when I'm painting squads.
I think the effect of lowering helping the look is down to the fact that the core parts are a bike, something designed for speed usually looks better streamlined, whereas a tank is, by it's nature, meant to look like a bunker on tracks !
It's like the difference between a Formula 1 car and Stock
