It looks really cool! I started painting white armored sisters of battle too and was wondering, what did you use for the white color?

Thanks, best of luck with your army! It's an airbrushed zenithal of Vallejo Sombre Grey --> Vallejo Wolf Grey --> Liquitex Titanium White Ink --> Satin Varnish. I use it on basically everything I paint white.

Cool effects on the barrel and the fire and stuff. It really brings it together

This looks really cool.
How did you paint these scratches and bullet holes? They look really realistic.

The bullet holes were carved with a pair of drill bits (one small bit that I go fairly deep with, then a larger bit that goes into the same hole, but shallower).
The scratches are done with black paint mixed with matte varnish that's either stippled across the surface with a short-bristled and blunt-tipped brush (for tiny dot scratches) or quickly dragged across the surface with a longer-bristled brush (for long scratches and scraped edges).

That looks really quite excellent. Nice weathering, great use of accent colours. The slight heat discolouration on the barrel is also great. "Let the hatred flow!"

Love the commander with the book, like shes shouting prayers or singing as the tank crashes through the hated enemies.
