I can has picature of said villain? I seriously, madly want to make that cockpit. It'd have to be a 4x4x5 cube or bigger. I've seen some exploded diagnostics of the cockpit somewhere before too. With that, I could do it.
If I knew the name or which incarnation of Cutey Honey, I'd totally send you a picture. Let's just say she's topless, but one of those underdeveloped females that could just as easily be a scrawny guy's chest. She is only seen from the waist up, as the rest of her is in this big (I think) four legged metal walking thing, and she has a big glass dome over her head. That's all I remember about her. We haven't discussed this "plan" in ages, since it's nearly impossible with our income.
It would be the Epyon System from G Wing. It seems the easiest incarnation of the seat style pilot cockpit. I don't know though, it could be really expensive and hard to haul around. ;_;
FAH! Amateur! The easiest Gundam Cockpit would be one from the Universal Century in the post Zeta Years!
"ejectable panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit" http://mahq.net/mecha/gundam/cca/lineart/rx-93-cockpit.jpg It's a chair on a boom, with a computer console in front and two manipulator sticks on each armrest. Best part of all is, the entire thing is in a sphere that is ejected from the mobile suite when it is to heavily damaged. You can just roll it every where, put it up on blocks where you want it, and the reason why the panoramic monitors are offline... It's been ejected silly, the cameras are in the mobile suits head!
(sticks tongue out) nyeeh! Ok, yes, that is easier. Lol. I know a lot of our cosplayers (myself included) are gonna be from Wing.
Though that does look nice, and also a little fun... I imagine it as a giant hamster ball o' DOOM! I'll have to look into that.
I think this project will be put on hold for a while, simply because it'll be expensive. Grant said it would be 300 for the seat alone, and I haven't talked to anyone about helping me with the fiberglassing of the shell.

Which incarnation of Gundam? I am sadly late to the party... I do have a massive crush on Lockon Stratos.

I have hopes though.
