Move pieces away from him? Las cannon. Swamp him? Claw/bolter. Now that I have a few more pieces, (including a dev squad sitting in a box) it may be time to solidify his role in the army. Or it may be time to get another, and really whomp on some fools. Finally, I should note that the arms are not glued on. One future project may be to magnetize the pieces so they don't fall off in the middle of a battle. (Doesn't happen frequently, but it's a pain when it does.)

The white banding adds a lot to the finished image. As for a lascannon (AP2, double range of the assault cannon) combined with the dreadnought close combat weapon, I imagine it's awesome for tank hunting and taking on vehicle squadrons...

I think it's pretty interesting you dry brushed so much silver, but I see the effect it gives at the end, and it looks pretty satisfying.
