May I ask how you did this? I'm stuck and need a right arm autocannon made. I've had some ideas on how to do it, but it likely wouldn't come out as smooth as this. I currently have a Forge World Mortis Autocannon on the left arm, so those gun barrels in the back of it would also be good to know how to build.

There's only two kits involved, and some very minor cutting work with a modeling saw. The dreadnought arm itself is from the Venerable Dreadnought kit, and the guns are from an Imperial Guard heavy weapons team. I prefer the Venerable Dreadnought kit for this because the gun arms are so nicely modular. From there, it's just a matter of cutting the barrels off a couple of autocannons, making sure you've got nice flat edges for them, and replacing the ammo box on the dreadnought arm with a couple of the ammo drums from the same Imperial Guard kit.

Autocannon.... Chaos or Imperial?

Eh, sorry, on a Warhammer 40k Dawn of War II binge at the moment, thanks to the Chaos Rising* expansion pack's release recently so I couldn't help but be curious. It would be neat to see the finished result however.

*(totally unrelated comment, but I'm actually damn glad they're finally implementing Chaos mark for Chaos... "oddly" enough, Slaanesh is the only one not implemented yet, which somehow amuses me).
