Eh...I'm not a fan.
1. The Ice blue really looks out of place, what effect were you trying to get there? 2. Your base colors are too light, start with a darker Grey and you'll get a better contrast when you put on that cammo white pattern. Plus you can use that light grey to put on even more cammo designs (it's what I'm currently doing). 3. The hatch and missile launcher looks completely out of place, why are they colored so differently? A suggestion, a watered down wash of black ink might help with your metallics, it give a much better sense of depth, and a little bit of a weathered look. |

The actual technique you're using seems good though, I think it's just a matter of getting colors right.

I find if you use the army color with black/white/grey as the other color for camouflage it ties it in with the army, makes it look camo and still keeps it looking good.
See the tanks in my new IG army are going to be white/black camo as white and black are the colors of my army. White fatigues, black armor.

now there is a busy model. Sorry to say, but at first I didnt see what tank it was (could be good
![]() Try to make it more distinguished, with bigger chunks of each color, pretty much like this model: http://rchobbysyd.nu/catalog/images/...intera6-01.jpg
