Huge improvement. Personally everytime I see GREEN CAMO GUARDS I shutter. Personally not many of those schemes ever look good to me. Your Urban camo looks pretty damn good tho. Nicely done

Thanks for the compliment! I don't think it would work very well for camoflage, you can't really hide a tank thats 10 feet tall and weighs 40 tons, but it does look cool!

Great work so far, Your right that red really gives the cannon a lift. The overall camo design is really going to break up the outline of your tanks as they trundle through the war torn streets of a hive city, can't wait for the next pics.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, Terrorism is the lowest form of war.

Sorry for the delay. I have only three more tanks to paint, the pics to be posted soon will show you all the reasons I've been struggling with painting these ones!!

Update to follow very soon!

I like the cammo but they look too blue to be urban , almost turned into ice world cammo.

I have painted up a few buildings using the same kinda shadowgrey/codexgrey so they blend in with them!

But yeah, I see what you mean about the iceworld camo. Its a bit ironic camoflauging a tank on an ice world, you probably couldn't even get the engine started!!

Here are the hellhounds, finally looking good after many years of neglect!! What colour should I paint the orange and black dozer blade?

Looks good mate. As regards camouflaging (sp?) a tank, at this scale it's more about breaking up the edges of the units so that enemy fire is less effective/accurate
