H & K MP-5 Gun ship

yuumi2891103

Hi ! to every one.

Long time no see since I had posted the build of 'Tempest'

This is the new build I am on now.

The base is the toy gun H&K MP-5, a couple of unknown hand gun and a binocular I bought at the local one coin shop. They cost me about 6 or 7 dollar.

Cut them up and put them together !



Binocular









Roughly assembled. The canopy is not the one I am going t use.









Test build of the cockpit













Huum Dials are too big.











And fix the cockpit, dials and canopy.
This fine vacuformed canopy was provided by my friend Bar (Barry) -san.
It has a very universal shape. You can fit any type of model. It's really great design !!









New panel







And the first primer applied (I know it's too fast but I can't wait)



























Thank you very much !! My friends !

Very cool kitbash. One piece of constructive criticism... on the seam lines... I'd either greeblie over them so they are unseen of just more "depth" of detail, or putty them up so they're not quite so obvious. other wise I've never seem some airsoft guns look so spacey

Hi!

Thank you very much for your looking and your comment
I'm happy that you like it.

Those upper/lower hull were just put together with some screw so far.
Because I have to do some LED wiring and put the optic fiber inside.

All the best,

Wayne R.

Looks great to me, very 'Wipeout'. In fact, if you do another see how the hulls look with a slight angle to them.

Thank you for your comment.

If you mean what I am thinking, Yup, that's the difficult point when you trim the angle of both fore and aft hull. I am going to insert the brass tube to fix them and avoid warping.

Lot of things to solve even for a little build like this.

yuumi2891103

Here are a few progress.

Install the cockpit tub and a Head Up Display on the glare shield .











May be I should get a better camera.

Thanks,

Manny mobile phone cameras and "normal ones. Have a macro mode. Its specifically(?) for taking close up shots and is usually marked with the symbol of a flower.

Consult your camera manual if you have it still.

I love the craft, Cant wait for the paint job.

i would never have thought to make a spacey ship body from guns. this forum makes me look at things in new ways

yuumi2891103

Thank you very much for dropping by !

Wow, very cool. I was sort of hoping that it would be something in the same scale as your outstanding Tempest model, but this is great too. I like the way the canopy sits low on the model, gives it a hot-rod feel.

"a couple of unknown hand gun"
look like the Robocop guns to me.
awesome work, very inventive. love the cockpit work.

DarthRaggmopp

This is dangerous for me to see, Now i want to "convert" some of my bb guns into spaceships too!

And you are welcome, I wait eagerly until you grant us another update on this. :-)

Gwan Katsu thats a great model!
You nailed the scale of the instrumentation in the
cockpit and the green back lighting looks excellent!

I’ve just caught this build for the first time and can’t believe I’ve missed out on this. You Tempest build was fantastic and this one is absolutely wonderful. You have great imagination and your original designs are very inspiring.
