Thought I would take a pic of some of my tanks I inherited. The ones on the front are done. Mostly with just a touch up by me. The four in the back and the one Basilisk have yet to be redone and I have one Leman Russ Mars Pattern fully unassembled and untouched I plan on putting a Stygies pattern turret on.

The Idea is a mixed fighting tank company. Just tanks thrown together in the heat of battle as their units have been taken out. I'm not going to go overboard on these pain jobs save for the Mars pattern when I do it. Anyway, was wanting tome color scheme ideas and patterns for the four in the back. Feel free to toss some stuff out there as I am going to have a mixed tank set. Also I have all the bits to finish these guys off and do some battle damage effects

Very nice, I like the mix-match aspects of them. Something a bit different!

From my reading of IG novels mixed companies were very common even tank companies. Whenever the force of the Imperium settle on a common enemy the colour of their uniforms or armour was of little importance.

I might suggest different company (squad) designations but similar battalion numbering perhaps in smaller script.

Mike, remember Kelly's Heros? ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065938/ )
You totally need to model Sgt. Oddball as your tank commander!
