One word, stunning! 
Thanks! 
Wasnt completely happy with the first render, so I made a new one for the portfolio, but it's similiar:

Still needs some stoppers imo. Could even get away with curving the rails up a bit at the end like such \______/ but not as steep and more curvey. Would save adding new texture bits and could reuse existing stuff.
I prefer the first render, the blue light let us see more details in the canon
Bent the rail at the end (thanks for the tip, really didnt feel like going into the texture again ) and readded some of the blue light in the render. I obviously want the portfoliorender to be as good as possible so really appreciate the feedback.
Much better and clean, damn i gotta pratisse modeling one of those! full modeling, texturing and normal mapping!
but I don't know the workpipe to that yet
hugely fine piece of work right there. the theme, the concept and of course the model; everything screams 5 stars. good job.
Fantastic stuff.
Looks great! I don't get the rails tho. the canon could easily roll over. Maybe add some stop pieces to the ends.
Thanks for the response all I might add real stoppers to the rail later, but for now I'll settle with the "bent up rail ends" suggested by ginger_lord. Atm I'm modelling and texturing the rest of the scene but will prolly revisit the cannon once the level reaches the "final touch" stage.
I think it is great, and I like the idea and would love to see it in UT3 as it would fit very well.
I also don't like the rail, it needs stoppers at the least, but I just find the rails a bit weird in general...
And I think that it is too monotome, the whole thing has the same color. A few colored elements might live it up.
WHOA ...
