GM GUNCANNON CONVERSION (THUNDERBOLT VERSION)

thingiverse

This is a conversion kit designed specifically to transform the Bandai 1/144 RGM-79 GM into a formidable Gun Cannon as seen in Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt:December Sky. To execute this transformation, you will need to obtain this kit. Please be aware that resins used for printing tend to wear away more quickly than the polycap material found in Bandai kits, particularly if you frequently change poses. Conversely, the fit is slightly tight rather than loose. I experimented with various designs for movable leg joints and stumbled upon a clever option: they are actually suspended in place! These joints are held by supports during printing, which can be easily broken off afterwards. This innovative approach eliminates the frustration of attempting to push and snap them into position or the need for additional pieces. I have included the STL file with supports for the legs, so you won't have to guess where to place them. I hastily painted the kit using a brush and, although it looks terrible, I was thrilled to complete the project!
