Wow. That Khorne Land Raider is wicked!  The "box" where the Heavy Bolters stick out looks a bit weird, but apart from that, it's really cool. Just noticed the Hive Tyrant scythes as horns. Awesome!

Not sure if it's the biggest though.

Legend tells of a thread in the DCM forum, running to over three hundred pages... The way is shut. It was made by those who are mods, and the mods keep it. The way is shut. my stompa (actually the quickest conversion of mine to date, built and primed in two hours, painted in around three more.  it's killa kan minions (can't remember if already posted) :    when I gather the bits they will be joined by a dread boss and a mrs potato head stompa to make the ultimate dread mob of 2 parents, 1 teenager and 3 kids. oh and here's my latest one, a small conversion, but fairly effective I think. replaced the generic laspistol with a more good-looking german (fitting in with thier german association) mauser C96 from zinge industries. Believe it or not, that gun was considered a miscast!  a better look at the mauser:

I did this one a year or two ago, I modeled my commander farsight to be jumping off a thing (I really don't know what it is) and I think it looks cool, my one problem is how unbalanced he is and he tends to fall a lot
I've also done some cutting and bending on my battlesuits

have you tried doing something like glueing fishing shot/weights to the base, or glueing pennies?

I've glued some metal sprue bits under but they haven't helped so much, Farsight's left arm is a real problem because its made out of metal
I plan on using simple green to strip the paint off all my tau so I can repaint them, and I can remodel my commander Farsight so he doesn't fall over as much

It is no coincidence, while filming starwars due to a limited budget they had to source props secondhand from the studios, the most common prop weapons were ww2 period ones. After some crude 'augmentation' they were deemed to look good enough. Apart from the wookie bow caster nearly all the weapons from the original trilogy are recognisably world war two ones.

That was actually one of the best things about the original trilogy, in my opinion. He took bits and pieces from all over to do his special effects, and the movies rocked because of all the extra work they did to make it look good. Once they got an unlimited budget and digital special effects, they got lazy. The remakes and new trilogy don't look half as good to me.
