Did some modeling today to show how our railguns look on the Games Workshop Tau Battlesuit lines. Each kit contains 20 resin components that allow you to pick between 2 types of barrels for the railgun as well as missile launcher and plasma gun sub-weaponry. These will likely be $14.50 each and are available here. (http://chapterhousestudios.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=132&product_id=256)

If your open to some structured criticism ?
I will be honest, I don't like these, they look like tau style scissors to me. I really prefer the way the Broadside holds the stock rail gun, it's a bit more dynamic.
Just my opinion.

Your fine, thanks for the critiques. There seems to be many players out there who arent too keen on the guitar hero broadside currently, myself included. I remembered an old battletech mech called the "Excaliber" that had a gauss rifle that was like a sword, that put me in the mindset to make a slimmer pointier weapon.

Thanks for your post!

Funny you say that, a while back we had a plan to do a new design of resin spirit soldiers (I still have the resins) but I never got to a finishing point on them. Im not sure what peopel would liek as new heads for them though..

Perhaps a Harlequin 'looking' head for the Wraithknight?

I like the overall look of it, but I don't like the tip of the barrel, my first throught was it looked a bit like a clothespeg.
I think I'd either extend it or cut it down to square it off.
I like the adaptability of it mind.

I personally think the new GW railgun is still the best version, but I would definitely grab some of these to freshen up the old shoulder-mount Broadsides. Are you working on a version of the high-yield missiles by chance? The official design is just awkward to my eye.
