I wonder if Kawamori-san ever realized that his creations would draw this much dedication from the fans. Thanks for the kind words, but there are others who have produced much, much more than I have. They are still my inspirations. My turn to see how close I can fly to the sun. LOLOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olitech Industries Posted May 30, 2022 Author Share Posted May 30, 2022 Wiring Looms, hydraulic lines, electrical, and various new mumbo jumbo. I'm scared to IK rig the launch arm, so I'm procrastinating with cable routing. LOL! Still way too neat and clean in there, but hopefully I can get some chaos in soon.

Olitech Industries Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) Finally getting to the panel lines and fasteners. Trying to get the fasteners looking right - not yet I think. The hex bolts in the back of the head maybe need to be reversed, to hold in the laser turrets. Still working it out. Going for a legit IRST look. So I think there need to be hex bolts, pan head screws and round head screws, counter sunk and counterbored, respectively. Trying to locate them in the same positions as in the Studio Nue drawing details. Edited June 22, 2022 by Olitech Industries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mauler RoV-20 laser cannon is a 5,000kW (kilowatt) laser. I have to say, I love the attention to detail here. My inner engineer is torn over whether to keep the correct real-world classification of Class 4 from the warning placard on the side of the cannon or the fictional Class 5 from the tip of the barrel. Class 4 is currently a catchall for anything more powerful than Class 3B (which usually tops out around 0.5W or 30mJ depending on frequency and pulse duration). Those two labels should probably match either way, though. Edited June 24, 2022 by Seto Kaiba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olitech Industries Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 @Seto Kaiba regarding the labels, doesn’t it make more sense that they’re different classes? Sensors/targeting lasers vs. weaponized laser? I have no clue, so I’m asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sensors/targeting lasers vs. weaponized laser? I have no clue, so I’m asking. Based on my research into publicly-accessible military standards documents on laser safety, yes... the laser sensors would be a lower class. Depending on type, the military-use ones are anywhere from Class 1 (eye-safe) to Class 3B (eye protection necessary to protect against direct exposure). Guide laser oscillators are probably 3B or 3A. LIDAR systems tend to be Class 1 or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olitech Industries Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Ok, back to the bodywork and panels. I like the upper intake details from dyrl, so I made them look like the sketch.

I searched around and this is the best I could find at the moment: It's line art from the series and not like you would find for the Master Files series; meantime, I'll see if there's anything better out there for you.
