Good morning!
During the initial design phase I planned to add some Machine Guns/Stubbers to the cockpit/head.
So I quickly built 4 MG.

However, when mounting them I wasn't really convinced.

What do you think? Too much?
[ATTACH=full]58173[/ATTACH]

Or maybe an alternative position?
[ATTACH=full]58174[/ATTACH]

Would the MG further back on the side or even under the chin look better?
Or should I remove them completely?

I recall someone asking me what kind of balls I use for the joints.
They are pretty no-name wooden beads 12mm - I got them in a local hobby store.

After I put the MG to the side to see what your feedback will point me to, I began to work on the ranged weapons.
I decided to give CASTOR some twin-linked Lascannons.

A rather simple mount, with an extra central sight.

POLLUX' multi-purpose power fist with the flame-thrower also received a small belt fed bolter.

Truly multi-purpose

For his right side he's getting something bigger.
It is a special low-velocity drum fed Grenade Launcher.

With its 9-shot magazine it can dish out some devastating fire. The 80mm grenades with High Explosive warheads have a large blast radius and are excellent anti-personnel weapons - speak Ork Splatterer

Before I will apply armor to the arms and legs I started to add cables and hydraulic hoses.
[ATTACH=full]58183[/ATTACH]

And here's the final question for you
I want to add lights - like I used on the PONOS and POLEMOS.
Which version looks best?
Version A
[ATTACH=full]58184[/ATTACH]

Version B
[ATTACH=full]58185[/ATTACH]

Version C
[ATTACH=full]58186[/ATTACH]

Version D
[ATTACH=full]58187[/ATTACH]

Version E
[ATTACH=full]58188[/ATTACH]

So what do you think?
I look forward to your feedback on the machine-guns and on the lights.
Thanks

Klaus
