Plastering and modelling Chimera hull:
Before I fill the gap between hull and turret support with white clue (to save green stuff) and then with green stuff. I prefer modelling green stuff with a curved screwdriver, it's very practical.
Now Chimera becomes even higher
Dome-shaped lasgun sponsons:
Lasgun sponsons restored. I've used the screedriver like a driller to make six rings. I've carved original plastic spheres from Chimera, now without their lasgun, because Stormtroopers don't carry lasguns...
The dome-shaped lasgun sponsons are an essential link to dome-shaped turret. Periscopes too. Hull would be too squared without them.
Where armoured skirts can't touch Chimera hull there are two supports. Antenna from Cadian vox caster (it's huge for a trooper). Loudspeaker is in the rear of Chimera hull. I think it can rally the troopers outside the ramp.
Stormtroopers' Chimera ready for painting:
Chimera's turret gets some new adjustment too: the light&green circle line allows Stormbolter to turn 360 degrees.

Wow! I really like what you have done with this. It certainly looks big and mean (as well as actually able to hold all the guardsmen). Thanks for sharing this!
