SDF-01 Mospeada

What an SDF-01 of a non-Macross Robotech series could look like if it was based on the basic design of the Big West Macross ship, but with a totally original Mospeada styling.  This craft could be transformable, and was modeled with that possibility in mind.  It is close enough to resemble the Big West SDF-01, but different enough to be a completely original and new design based solely on Harmony Gold's Mospeada property.  If Robotech were ever rebooted or re-imagined, I hope this is the road they would take.
This model took me about 7 hours to do, so it is still a bit rough, but it gets the point across I think. 
I didn't add any side ships to the docking arms because I couldn't decide on Ikarzuki type ships or Southern Cross Tokugawa types. 
This ship has the same number of weapons as the Macross SDF-01, but has a twin particle beam cannon rather than the massive super-dimensional-energy beam cannon of the Macross SDF-01.
Again, this design was made to illustrate how you can have Robotech without Macross.
I don't do this type of thing often, and probably won't do another model of this type for some time.

The engines, overall shape, bridge, and weapons are all derived from the Izumo, Ikarzuki, and Garfish from Mospeada.  NO Macross elements were used in this design.

Oh, as an aside, I named it Atlas to go along with the whole Daedalus, Prometheus, etc. type of naming scheme, that was the only element from Macross that I actually used.  It is a tentative name as I was too tired to come up with anything else when I finished this model.
