The Warforge Miniature Modelling and Conversion

Pimp my dakka

had a bit of an idea that I thought was worth pursuing.

See, I tend to like flexibility in my models, so I was gazing at the guns on this thing and thought I might try a bit of a flamer upgrade that I could add or remove as needed. My original line of thinking was that I could chop the barrel off and magnetize it, but the ammo clip would need the same treatment and it'd just end up being a pain to assemble whenever I wanted to use it. Instead, I decided with a bit less of an obtrusive upgrade, and banged out a prototype to see how I liked it...

 

It's a bit of an obvious cop-out, particularly with the ammo clip still there... but is it passable, you think? I imagine a big shoota setup would be standard, but against particular horde armies I could probably see this being of use.
