I like the orange and white version. It’s very eye catching.

   2. Can anyone offer suggestions on how to improve the guns?

For the most part, I like the guns. Perhaps black portion of the guns could be less “blocky”. I’m also not too sure about the black technic pin used as the gun barrel, but I’m not sure what other piece(s) I’d substitute...

Cool! Yours is the third response, and the third different favorite color scheme.

I agree the guns could look better if they were less blocky. I wanted them to be substantial and not flimsy, but I had trouble doing enough decent shaping at that small size. I may review some MOCs by the (many, awesome) Japanese mech builders on Brickshelf, as well as some of Soren Roberts’ and Brayton Orchard’s work--some great examples in there of interesting small-part techniques.
