Kitbash for Tau Super Heavy Humpback http://imgur.com/a/6cV4r

Took two hammerheads, glued back to back, railgun/skyray turret, I have my choice of 6 BC's or 6 SMS pods. Vertical control surfaces and engine mount wings are from piranha. Smoothed off forward engine mounts and bashed two engines for top center engine.

Easy build. Lemme know what you think.

oh very nice.

Looks amazing. Really hard to tell that its multiple model parts and not just one kit.

**juraigamer**

It's ok, but it doesn't feel like a tau craft anymore.

I would have added the extra cannons on the back to where the side hatches are, simply added the railgun to the coupula and not added the skyray on there, but instead put the skyray part were the engines are, then extended the back chassis and added dual engines since you used two kits.

To me, tau stuff needs to look sleek, not like a lego creation.

**Rimmy**

its interesting to say the least. I think it has potential but its NOT quite all there. it looks very "legoish" ya know? just things slapped together.

Now, I do like the over all direction with elongating the wings.

If this were me, I'd have used the skyray missle winglets on the sides instead of the top? just run the rail gun on the top. the back half I like the turret drones, but would almost rather see the back end squared off a bit more.

It’s too devilfishy

I would undersling 2 rail guns under the engines, add allot more cowlings then streamline the top maybe a bunch of missile pods instead of the sky ray turret. But that’s just an opinion.

**wolfmerc**

The idea, the basing and paint job are all great, I think the rail gun would be better on the underside to give it a more attack chopper feel.

**jabberwocky**

an underslung rail gun would look cool...
