For those that have been in my scraps gallery and seen my Shadowhawk Gunship, thisll be a little treat.
This is my attempted rebuild from scratch and with many improvements to make an actual Thunderhawk Gunship!
I'm quite proud of this (even if I am making it for someone else). here are the key points for me.
* the overall structure has been stabilized
* the wings have a better supporting inner brace.
* the wings have been extended with extra engines
* the proper 'main gun' fits almost perfectly without alteration
All in all... a beefier, manlier warmachine, but then it's smaller cousin was more of a stealth bomber with Space Marine nods.

Well when my imagination goes rampant, I always imagine gunship as like...Infantry squad support with a bunch of smaller but fast suppression weapons and such!
But then again, nothing instills fear like a big ass cannon.
I don't know much about Warhammer, but I know they use very big guns :P

weep for the proper one and kneel in it's presence!

Pfft, frankly, I'm disappointed in them.
I mean, you could fit at least five more laser or particle cannons on that ship!
Yours is fine though, you replaced the missing space with MOAR ENGINES!
Speed is always a positive attribute when you have big cannon of ultimate cake and mayhem.

hehe, it's a long standing aircraft in the Warhammer 40'000 lore, and VERY iconic. Imagine it as a massive flying battering ram - it flies in knocks a huge hole to drop the thirty space marines it's carrying in hangs around for a few minutes to provide support and empty its ammo before returning to its strike cruiser in low orbit for re-fuel, re-arm and the next drop or extraction mission. trust me, it has enough guns for the job.
this was my original attempt - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6462452/ - this was dubbed the Shadowhawk Gunship and was used at the Battle for Armageddon games at UK Gamesday 2011.
This one here is a fresh build with a few changes to make it stronger and bulkier and adding the best weapon configuration I can to make it as accurate to its background as possible.
