Here is my urban painted Destroyer Tank Hunter for my IG army. It is the command tank for the 152nd Jagergruppe, of the 13th Lycanthian. The army specializes in urban combat and have an obsession with instilling fear in their enemies.

The text on the barrel reads "Lanze der Furcht" or "Lance of Fear."

There are a few things that I need to touch up on, and my mom ended up breaking the antenna off over Christmas Break, but I really like how it turned out.

Comments and criticism is greatly appreciated.

I really dig the cammo man1 nice subtle rust too! One thing that would help would be a wash to bring out the detail a bit more, followed by a nice drybrush to make the rivets and what not pop. I mean tanks have alot of detail and should get alot of your attention. I use a thinned out black wash over my grey vehicles... Antennaes can be replaced with brass wire, so I hope you're not too po'd with mom LOL Looks like a great start!

Oh... the lettering would have been alot more noticeable in white

Looks pretty awesome!

All great ideas. I especially like the idea of wire for the antenna. And no, I am not too POed at her.

As for the wash, I plan on eventually doing that. Low funds kind of restricted my paint choices. But yeah, I definitely want to do more on the details, especially the rivets. I just wasn't really sure what to do.

The only thing that I probably won't change is the lettering. Because of the nature of the tank, I tried to avoid any bright looking colors on the details, so that nothing would really stand out, and spoil the camouflage.

Nice one dude
