I put in a good 6 hours of work on the styrofoam bunker (aka Field Command), and it no longer looks like pure $#!+, rather just a little like $#!+ still. I assume it will look better once I get all the little finicky pieces onto the structure and give it a base coat of grey.
I intend to use this for Planetstrike games when I finally get to playing =]
Here's what I have completed on it so far.
I dunno if you guys can tell, but the front of the structure can be removed as a damaged part, allowing enemy troops to assault through the front if blown open with heavy weapons.
Ports for garrisoned Guardsmen to shoot from. These ports are on both sides, and one on the right front too.
A guy stationed in front of the destructible front portion.
Top view with the master plans. Note that I want to add a vehicle ramp on the top left of this picture to allow the Leman Russ and Sentinels to get up top. Also allows enemy vehicles to assault the top troops.
Back entrance where I will station entrenched troops in front of.
The top populated with my meagre army.
Perfect level for Guardsmen to shoot from on the main level.
Comparison for height compared to a Sentinel. You can also see the coms tower (made from empty prescription bottles) which will be the final objective to capture on this building.
Note the part of a prescription bottle used as infantry cover (to be turned into something metal with the final paint job). I made a perfect slot on the top of the frontal entrance for a heavy weapons team to take root for the defence. I plan to put an AA battery right behind that (perhaps in the dead center of the building top).
Steps leading up to the heavy weapons emplacement, good for a sniper.
Perhaps a better view of the approach to the fortification.
'Tis all for now until I get off work tomorrow and work on it some more.
The army that will be occupying this building is located here:

Thoughts anyone on everything posted?
