Deep in the heart of Biomechanical Bricks, a new Mecha has been created:
The Rizmit

while!)

Excellent. I just needed to respond to this message!
| |
This is awesome, Eric! He’s much cleaner and sleeker than his predecessor,
the Red
Robot. The use of red slopes makes for great body work. I also think
the gray and
red color combo gives Rizmit an excellent look.
|
Cool, thanks, I worked hard on it and I am very proud of the way it looks.
| |
I like the gray Technic frame, and seeing Rizmit “naked”. Can I see all your
‘bots
naked? Will there be a swimsuit issue? :-) Seriously, his frame looks
very sturdy
due to it’s thickness. Really great construction man!
|
Thank you. The frame of this Mecha is where “it” is at. The frame its’self is
the very reason I wanted to build this robot. Aside from other personnal
reasons, that frame was something I just had to construct.
I’ll try to snap pics when I’m at the frame stage. As for seeing my Mecha naked,
well, we need a first date, first.
Oh, btw, no Technic Pins on the first date either.
| |
BTW, did you leave any Technic turntables and 40t gears for the rest of us?
|
Um, no. They’re all mine, and if you have any, its beacause I’m letting you use
them. 1 word, service packs!
| |
The only negative comment I have (and it’s not really negative, more neutral
I guess
:-) is that his fingers look a little thin and weak in comparison to
the rest of him
(particularly the awesome 3-toed feet, which look like they
could stomp the hell
outta anything). But that’s just me and my opinion. You
are an superior LEGO builder
and artist in my eyes!
|
Ahh yes, thank you. The fingers are to scale. Though I wanted to use small click
hinges between the digits, so I guess it can look skimpy at times. But they look
better in person. I suppose. Cool, glad you like the feet. They are designed to
smash Mega-Blocks...ug, I said it.
Thank you, I hope to emtpy the Technic Bits Bin I have. I’m swimming in bushings
and short axles. I keep trying to use them in new creations. Creations that I
put my heart into.
Thank you ,
Eric Sophie

p.s. I take it you’re not going to PDX? You will be missed!
|
I missed all your Mom’s too. But the pictures on Brickshelf made up for it.
