However, Forge World only makes lascanons and heavy bolters. No heavy flamers. Does any know of any 3rd party options, tutorials on how to make one, or is any wizkid up for making one?

The plastic GW tank upgrade sprue comes with a heavy flamer with an angled mount that is very similar to the FW resin front gun mount.

There's 2 options for what you can do: 1) Scratch-build a little plate to glue the flamer onto, so it can slide in and out of place like the FW guns. Would be really easily with a small bit of plasticard. 2) Do what I did and cut the FW guns from the plate they are attached to, glue that plate to the hull and magnetise the guns.

Wow this is really good thanks. For some reason, I had never considered magnetising the plate. Unfortunately, I have already painted up all of mine and don't want to ruin the paint job. I may do this if I buy any in the future. The plasticard idea sounds good. I may try that as I have a bunch of those flamers from the accessory sprue. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790411/10880425.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/790411/10880425.page GMT
