My Super KV with my M1A1 Abrams together. They look pretty good together in my opinion, only thing missing is my Sherman.

I painted the muzzlebrake with matte black acrylic paint, and added some more kill marks in the left over spaces on the gun tube.

As long as your happy keep at it mate , but I think your overdoing the kill rings and doing them a little rough shod.
Try sanding them back or repainting a base coat and use some masking tape to mask off nice neat rings as in your pic.

Tamiya thin Masking tape.

Take your time, don't rush it.

If you want a 'fictional' tank, with three times the BB power- while you're waiting for the Bank of Mum and Dad to come through with a Christmas Sherman- then try one of these

Oh wow that's quite a bit of firepower

Personally i like the rough, sloppy look of the kill marks. but i could retry it if i feel like it

Oh my god, i could imagine how much that thing would weigh, both in 1/16 scale or 1:1 scale (would be too heavy to move at all) That is pretty scary looking

I decided to repaint the kill marks. i just finished painting the barrel, i left one kill mark thats closest to the muzzle brake, i like how it came out. Time to let it dry and try it again

What can also be used to do kil rings is rubber bands that are used in braces for teeth.
I have a bag full that I can place on the barrel and paint over, leaving the base colour exposed.
Paint a solid white section on the barrel, then place the rubber bands over it at the right looking intervals, then paint black over top.
Once dry remove the rubber bands and as quickly as your dad can become your transgender Aunty-kill rings
