I'm loving it mate, really well done.
I like the various slogans and writing about the hull, things like that add character.
Grats on the Baneblade.

Your bane blade is really coming along. I like the mud on the tracks. Try taking the colour of the mud and add a little white then dry drush the tank make it look dusty and blend the mud on the tank till it turns to dust.
Make sure the brush is real dry and almost paint free when you do this.
Looking good though wanna see more pics.

I'll give it a whirl. An antenna mounted flag is also forthcoming. |

Okay, everyones saying its good, but noones suggesting things.
Might I suggest you make a sentical (Cant spell) for words, Might make them look straighter, and more sharper.
Also, around the front and back of the tracks, where they go under the guards, make some buildup of mud.
(looks better)
Mix some Sand, some flock, some PVA Glue, and brown paint, giving you the muddy grassy mixture, and either paint over it.
OR
(Easier)
Mould some greenstuff into the gap and then paint over it with the mixture without PVA in it.

You probably can't see, but I did a touch of an experiment with that on the top of the front treads. I just didn't want to go whole hog with caking on thickened paint before I saw the result and liked it, and I do. I was actually using a bit of flour and mixing it with earth tones, then slathering it on with a toothpick. I'll try a bit of your advice and bring it up with the PVA mixed with darkened sand and some grass along the bottom. |

I was actually kind of aiming for a bit of a wonky, hand painted look on the slogans. I was taking my inspiration from pictures of AFV's and I've seen slogans kind of go both ways. |
