Crushed Crates

Hey there #WarhammerCommunity, I'm trying to make some basing for my titan and I need opinions. I 3d-printed these and then placed a sledgehammer on top before heating to simulate a crushed effect under the tread of the titan. Does it work or should I go for more?

@thatdamnelf @RightHandOfIkaros This is one of the neatest questions I've seen on here.

What you have there is great.

I think nonuniform crushing would be worth a look. If you look at footsteps in sand or mud, the pressure isn't uniform. Toe off is the most pressure typically. Also, some crates will squash flat.
