Hooray for Thanksgiving holiday builds.

This uses a basic click joint frame (based on Izzo’s and Nnenn’s click joint frames), which was a pain due to my blocky style of building and resulting heaviness. Next time I need to build smaller or learn to build lighter.

All comments welcome. Thanks for looking!

I don’t normally follow the .mecha group, but I saw this model posted on the LUGNET front page, and I have to say that I really, REALLY like this mech. Visually, it just seems to me to capture that anime spirit really well. (It makes me think Gundam, but I’m not sure why.) And the photography skills of whoever photographed it really help make it shine.

Based on your comments, it may be weak mechanically (and the stand seems to imply this is the case). But visually at least, I think it looks great.

I’m really surprised that no one else has commented on it yet, especially since it’s on the LUGNET front page.

(...) Thanks Travis. Glad you like the mech and its photos. Yes, it is unable to stand on its own. I need to learn more about joint capabilities and also improve my building so that things don't end up being so heavy. :) Dennis (17 years ago, 27-Nov-07, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
