Not wanting Chad to have all the fun I desided it was time for another kitbash project. If you recall in the start up thread in my Republic of Texas history I make reference to vehicle called a "Roadrunner". To the reader this could be any kind vehicle, but to me it was always going to be some kind of two or four legged mech. A few weeks ago I came accross a old Japanese mech model that will serve as the basis for project.
Now in the interest of keeping the story going here are the specifications for the "Roadrunner"
RDR-1A(ROADRUNNER)
REQUIREMENT: A HIGH SPEED RECON/ESCORT VEHICLE WITH VTOL CAPIBILITY
MOVEMENT TYPE: BIPED
MAXIMUM SPEED: 95KPH
MAXIMUM VERTICAL RANGE: 70 METERS
POWERPLANT: DUAL FUSION
ARMOR: LAMINATED STEEL AND KEVLAR
WEAPONS: 4 37MM GATLING GUNS, 40MM ROCKET LAUNCHER, 2 50CAL MACHINE GUNS
AMUNITIONS TYPE: 37MM DEPLETED URANIMUM ARMOR PIERCING
40MM ROCKETS (SMOKE OR ANTI-PERSONEL)
50 CAL. EXPLOSIVE
CREW: 1
NAVIGATION AND COCKPIT CONTROLS: COCKPIT IS FULLING INCLOSED WITH A 270 DEGREE EXTERIOR VIEW HUD INCLUDING TARGETING AND VEHICLE STATUS OVERLAY.
NAVIGATION AND STABLIZATION IS MAINTAINED BY GPS AND TERRAIN FOLLOWING(CRUISE MISSILE TYPE) CAPABLITIES.
For the model I am using a DORVACK kit combined with some GUNDAM parts and whatever else I can find. Here are some pictures of last nights work. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.
