How can i set the mesh front?

Question

I have a game object that is created and placed through script and it gets a component with a function that should rotate it to face a target, and I'm using this piece of code:

 Vector3 dir = alvo.position - eu.position;
         Vector3 forward = eu.forward;
         forward.y *= -1;
         Vector3 rotation = Vector3.RotateTowards(forward, dir, 1, 0.0f);
         transform.rotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(rotation);

where alvo = target (in portuguese) and eu = me (in portuguese) = gameObject and it works the axis z points to the target, but it makes the mesh to be turned 90 degrees in the axis y =( is there a way to tell unity that the canon is the front of the mesh, not the side of it?

Try creating an empty gameObject with the desired rotation, make your cannon a child of it, place the script on the parent instead of the cannon mesh itself.
