Finally! This mecha took way too long to complete. I started it after
Christmas, and only got it done yesterday. I guess age slows you down. Heh.
:-p
Anyways, this mobile platform is similar in some ways to my
MTP, which I did all the way
back in 2003. However, there are references to my other mobile platforms, as
well.

Mladen,
As always, a magnificent piece of hardware, looking so much the utilitarian part
and warming the cockles of my heart for so being. I pretty much just lurk now
but I had to come out and comment on this--seeing new ones is always welcome.
The “hammerhead” effect of the hull front is really nice, and a great step up
from the old MTP. Like on the older machines, I really like the LAMPS/sensor
turret--though I wonder if the cheek railguns are reaching the limits of
stability? How well do the body/waist junction and gun elevators hold their
positions? I’ll understand if they’ve been secondary to leg stability,
naturally. :)
My favorite single detail has to be the smokethrowers, though--well posed, and
well placed. That, if nothing else, makes it instantly “tankey”.
best

| The vertical-launch system between the smokethrowers is also amazing--a detail I may try to develop further at some point. Also, I meant "LAMPS/sensor turrets", seeing that the chin and dorsal units are the same... LFB (18 years ago, 23-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
