Oh, umm..

I did mention just the gattling, but that wasn't the only gun I was thinking of. Skins for all guns?

A gun firing belt-fed banshee rockets pops to mind.


Im sure there are plenty of ideas floating around somewhere

I never liked the Hwachas lion heads, I've always thought of it as the Artemis rocket launchers bigger brother and imagine a rusted version of this:

While this is a neat idea, I do have one concern -

A lot of people, including myself, use parts of the gun models to help line up shots (e.g. mine launcher hinge). Constantly changing guns, especially if they were set by someone else, might make this a bit tricky.

A very valid argument.

Really? I thought of it as a bigger Banshee.

Banshee is their little sister. Always running around screaming her head off.

Oh most perfectly. Its not like these are mandatory skin changes. I think its not a bad idea that crewmembers can choose the gun skins on ships they serve on. They can shock and awe new captains using stock skins with their customised tools of death they bring on board.

If pilots get ship themes, gunners get weapon skins, and engineers get sweet cheetah print spanners
