Robotech Masterpiece Strike Cannon Add on

blackconvoy_D01 · 01-21-2010, 06:10 PM

Hello,

This is my first partial successful kitbash. I wanted a strike cannon for my Robotech MPC, (I did'nt want to pick up any Yamatos due to two bad experiences with the brand.) so through networking I met
nightmareb4macross of macrosswold.com who had taken the 1/55 Bandai cannon and remolded it to fit the Toynami 1/55. I purchased the original mold from him and casted the base of the missile launcher detachment from the Appendix thruster. When the mold was cast I attached the cannon to the base and allowed it to dry. Here is what the partial end result looks like. Tell me what you think so far. Thank you.

Here is a draft paint version with a semi gloss paint I found. I'll be removning the paint for a better gloss type, but you can see the close match of color. Here is the kitbashed cannon mounted on the MPC Appendix- A Fast pack, on a YF-1R, Jack Archer. I put it on the YF-1R for a more vivid color arrangement. What do you think?

Not bad. Didn't know that NMB4M did that. Nice.
