What do you think about it, some important talents im missing or something else that is wrong?
Edit: Whups forgot about the glyphs, was just the defualt ones, but tell me wich ones you think I should use.

Quite a few things are wrong with it.
Doesn't have Bladed Armor
Has Fairly weak talents for tanking like Acclimation, Icy Reach, and Icy Talons
Glyphs are really wrong. You shouldn't be using Death Strike for a Frost Tank build.
Glyph of Disease is not useful at all for frost, and Dark Command is just blah imo
I would suggest a

build for Frost Tanking, that uses Obliterate and not Death Strike.

yeah I messed up in the part about the glyphs but NO I don't use Oblit I tried it and explain this. as for the rotation I was at work when I typed it up made big mistakes I am taking that out.
I HB and crit for 6k Multi Target nice amount of threat
I Oblit and crit for 4k single target almost same threat little less.
which is better

Of course there is something wrong with it. You're missing mitigation from Imp Frost Presence. You have a useless talent for tanking in Merciless Combat. And your runic power generation is gimped because you don't have Chill of the Grave. I won't even get started on the whole Icy Talons debate since you at least kept annihilation and killing machine. Please stop sharing your spec on all these threads as its far from ideal.
As to Neoblackheart's spec...
Lets just say if you take a few seconds to dig up the profile of his DK and look at his achievements (particular 5 man heroics and non), you'll probably see he's a product of a guild that carries its members. I wouldn't worry about crunching numbers with him.
