I realized the back 3/4 of the Tesseract Ark is basically the back end of a ghost ark. Since i already have a ghost ark magnetized at the two connections points in front of the cockpit segment,i figured all i need to do is make the front shield like panal, w/ weapons to field a tesseract arc. Does anyone have an suggestions for how i could go about make this panel. I'm not really concerned about the guns or fine details, as i can just use some extra bits and green stuff for decor. I am more focused on just the panel. Thanks in advance for any advice.

You could build it up from multiple layers of sheet styrene. Hot water or another source of gentle heating would let you bend it into the desired shape. Failing that, perhaps some sort of dozer blade bit could serve the purpose? If you're not trying to replicate the stock model perfectly, there are all sorts of gubbins and armor plating you can stick on there to make it work.

Last night I came across a broken n64 controller so ive cannibalized the backs of the two side handles, placing them opposite to one another vertically has basically given me the curved middle section. Now i just need to two side panels, and the styrene could be just the thing for that, thank you for the advice.
