Cool thing! I always try to trash some ruins or damaged vehicles in the scene to make it more 'full'.
Making three circles in a model, each a bit larger as the other and warp the parts turning and a bit lower to the model makes great 3D-impact-markers on a existing model

Looks awesome, though it kinda reminds me of the tanks used in the Valkyria Chronicles anime. You gonna represent those tanks as something from the Guard Codex?

Thanks! It's not surprising that you see similarities with the Valkyria Chronicles anime. After all, GW was inspired by WW1 and WW2 tank designs, and I've basically just used those elements to create new tanks. As for the Guard Codex, I did write new rules for these tanks, but I don't play 40k anymore.

Yeah, I noticed the broad tracks and riveted armour platings which is common for pre-war tanks. You got names for these tanks? I see in the back is a MRA tank and what appears to be some sort of a quad-barreled tank. (AAA?)

The two biggest tanks are Valdor class battle tanks. The closest one has a quad melta weapon (multi-multi melta?), so it's a tank hunter. The one further away has a battle cannon. Both have co-axial autocannons. There are also two Chimera APCs, and two medium tanks armed with conqueror cannons and hull-mounted autocannons. The artillery tank in the background is a new variant of the Manticore artillery piece.

Sick, I like your original designs. Why don't you represent the multi-multi-melta as a banewolf or something. Ir the Witchunter's character with the tri barreled melta?

Like I said, I don't play anymore, so I don't spend much time thinking about how to represent it. But thanks.
