I finally found time to review some of my older pictures taken during the last year. Here are some excerpts I’d like to share...


   When I started with Scout I had the picture of an agressive fast animal in my mind. Something like a raptor. The Cockpit is mounted to the waist bar by small turntables so it can move to both sides.
 

   Shootist was the biggest mech I built using only simple click hinges for the joints. It came out quite poseable but wasn’t very stable. Just too much weigth for those hinges.
 

   Cyclops was my first mechs using the battle droid technic ball joints. It was inspired by a x-pod-case I wanted to use for a cockpit...
 

   Bulldog uses simple click hinges for all joints. Only the body is attached to battle droid technic ball joints. The arms for the weapons were inspired by Black Mamba MkII. This was the first mech I built together with my four year old son. Every part which is double was first built by myself and then Sandro built the second one. (Perhaps with a little help sometimes.) That was really fun for both of us.
