Cool. It could do with a bit more red. The white is a bit overwhelming.

I'm going to work on this more today and add some more red. I am also trying to clean up some bits, lower the height by a brick, and change the tank head to something flatter.

It's a very nice APC. I like the back-heavy shape some of the IM vehicles have, and I also like the red under-chassis which probably took some work to get right. I like the detailing that's already on it, but if you're going to add stuff maybe the sides could use some attached tools or something, or maybe a lovely red tiger stripe/band between the 1st and 2nd pair of wheels - it's your build to tinker with though.

This looks like it was super fun to design and build. Love the chassis!

It looks a bit flat. More dakka would be recommended!

^ This.
I would also try to reduce that bit in the front to 2 slopes and smooth the lines up because it just looks really boxxy. I understand from working in LDD that adding greebling might be hard, but I assure you something to break up the flat white would do wonders for the vehicle.

I like it a lot, and I think possibly some mark-V style guns on that slope on the side would break up the flatness.

So do I. Maybe it's just the WIP pics of the APC that got deleted.
