I just started making Tanki art, so I'm not the greatest.

It's not too simple.  If you tried to do what I did, you would know that.  And more details?  Like what kind of details?

like glass bottles on the road and cigarettes in solders mouths i have up to 50 details in a normal pic, you can hardly notice but half what is on the street in mine!

Glass bottles and cigarettes are not required in making art.  They are just objects, not details.  I'm not saying you can't have them in artwork though.  I might use the bottles idea for other artwork, like at a dump or junkyard.  The "details" in my pictures are making the tanks blend in.

 

 In the first one, the tank is under a bridge, so I made sure to make a shadow casted onto the tank, plus a bit of a shadow underneath the tank.  And I also put a thin layer of green over the tank, because in the picture, there seems to be green fog.  With the green spray paint over the tank, it makes it appear that it is within the fog.

 

As for the second picture, I was focused on color correction.  The environment in the picture is dark, so I made the tank look darker.  There is a very deep shadow underneath the tank, which the direction of it is determined by where the light source is.  The light source is the moon, and you can also see how I added a reflection of moonlight on top of the tank.  The headlights on the tank seem to be lit.  I made the headlights look like that by using the airbrush (spray paint) of matching colour around the headlights.  

 

None of my current pictures are perfect though.  Realistically, there should be a reflection on the water of the tank in the second picture.  I would have made the reflection, but it would have been extremely hard.  In the first picture, the tank seems to be on top of an object sticking out of the ground, making it look unrealistic if you take notice to it.

 

Thanks for your suggestions though.  Hearing opinions is important to me.
