Hi everyone.

Just wanted to show you guys what I've been working on and get some feedback. A few people were helping suggest ideas for my Pathfinders - so I've gone with the overwhelming advice (smaller stock, different power pack, non-camo colours.

As for the others, the XV88 has been bulked out with servo-pumped arms and legs, and has obviously had the railguns mounted on the arms.

The commander has been simplified, smoothed down and tidied up. The old base (stamping on a dead Deathwatch Terminator) was a bit too fiddly and broke in transit so I took it off.

Oh, and the Chaos cultist? I got sent a box of Fire Warriors by GW mail order with 15 Imperial Guard soldiers (bizarre, because a regiment contains 20!) so I was told to keep them and got sent more fire warriors. So I made 12 Gue'vesa mercenaries (pics to come) and made one of my three spares into this here Chaos Cultist because I was a bit bored.

Excellent Paint job and modelling work. I am totally blown away by the new railrifles you designed. I think they reflect the powerful nature of the weapon quite well.

The farsight conversion is nice and I like that 'twin-linked fusion blaster' he has...even if it is supposed to be a plasma rifle.

My only criticism is with the connection between the railguns of the 88's and the rest of the body. It looks odd for some reason..maybe because I can't see their elbows? I dunno.

The paint schemes are nice and the modelling work is pretty good. Overall, excellent job

I like the broadside you did. Personally It makes more sense to have something with that big of a gun to just not have a hand. Because Railguns do have some mean kick.
