Tank Fire

I made this out of cotton balls, sprayed them with krylon, and then dry brushed the fireball effect.

What would be cool is if you propped up the front of the tank a bit to look like there was a massive amount of recoil

Simple. Put a 2x1 trans brick under the tank. Position it so that it's not visible, but also lifts up the tank's front.
This sig is too fucking large: show anyway

i don't know if you guys seen main battle tanks fire, but they don't lift or move, but there is a nasty pressure wave from the guns, especially if they're larger than 120mm. but it would look cool on light tanks with field guns
