Hi Again!

Thanks for all feedback on my first few Mecha designs. This is the latest one, insipred somewhat by the SG Mecha by Ryoichi Takagaki...

I have just got my first Technic rotational click joint and its superb!

Loads better than the ball joint method. The friction is better and it stays put! Only downer is I only have 1 ! lol. But I shall soon have Cadhok & Gahdok (8558) which has 12 of these puppies!!!

This has been done to perfection by Chris Snead in his armature design. This is where I will go next I think, as Dave Johann said the Glamature is prone to rag-dolling so the “poseability” suffers.

Cheers again for all feedback!

The torso looks OK, i noticed the top of the pilots head (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
