I love this model, both its aesthetics and rules. I got it to add a flyer to my Sisters army, but it works well with my IG army as well.
To add definition, I've lined-in all the panels in grey, which I think helps a lot. All of the caution bars were masked off (which is the best way to do them).

Unfortunately, the FW resin canopies are really, really easy to chip when removing them from the sprue.

Well, there's a slight risk of gluing something together with it. Only slight, mind.

Looks solid and fierce! Definitely one I don't see very often. Have you fielded it on the table yet?

Not detailed as it is, but yes. It's been relatively mixed in its effectiveness. The thing is a glass cannon to be sure--sustained bolter fire on the side arcs will bring it down (only 2HP and Chimera armor!). It also can't hover and the main gun has a relatively short reach.

I magnetized the other wing pylons and have been considering adding bombs or hellfury missiles to it. The autocannons or multilasers may be additionally "worth it", but the thing already has 3 forward weapons as it is (the lascannons are not twin-linked).

Looks nice, the one thing I don't like is the fact the chevrons are rather irregular. The ones on the wings would be facing the same way on the flaps.
